“It’s not how, it’s how many.”
Bowlers really do win matches. But sometimes, they do so with the bat. Even a genuine bunny can play a vital role in extending a lead, reducing a deficit, turning a poor score into a respectable one, or forcing a draw.

Article by December 10, 2020
Cricket West Indies and Cricket Australia marked the 60th anniversary of the now famous “Tied Test” at the Gabba with an international video conference featuring Alan Davidson, Neil Harvey, Lance Gibbs and Peter Lashley, all of whom played a role in one of the most celebrated matches in history.
Ricky Skerritt, the CWI president, said matches between the two cricket nations had always been keenly contested and the mutual respect and rivalry was alive today in the pursuit for the Sir Frank Worrell Trophy.
Skerritt added that the West Indies looked forward to hosting the Aussies in 2021.
