Cricket History: When A Test Match Finished After 12 Days
In the period between the two World Wars, there arose a concept of timeless cricket Tests. In other words, matches played to a finish without any time restrictions.
The most infamous and longest of these was the one at Durban between hosts South Africa and England in March 1939. After 12 days, including of course rest days and washouts, the game ended in a draw!
