Two Amazing Cricket Facts.

The bowler ran up to the wicket

And bowled the first ball,

The first ball of the test match.

The batsman missed the ball

And it hit his pads.

“OWZAT!” the bowler shouted,

The batsman was out,

Was out with the very first ball,

The very first ball of the test match.

The bowlers bowled their balls

And wickets were taken,

The team were all out,

All out for one hundred and seventy one,

Not a good score,

But the incredible thing was

That two bowlers took five wickets,

Took five wickets each,

Five wickets each in that one innings.

Two amazing facts in one innings,

Facts I have never seen before,

Never seen in test cricket,

Cricket that I watched all my life.

So absolutely amazing,
