The longest cricket match in history was a Test match between England and South Africa in 1939. The match lasted 9 days (timeless Test) and ended in a draw because the English team had to catch a ship back home.
That’s incredible! A 9-day cricket match that ended in a draw because the English team had to catch a ship home—talk about a timeless Test! It’s wild to think how different travel and sports scheduling were back then. What a legendary game!
