Match Length: 12 days (43 hrs 16 mins)
Date: 3-14 March 1939
Venue: Durban
Teams: England, South Africa

In those days, match used to be played till a result is achieved. Unfortunately, England had to catch a boat on 15th March, and the play was concluded to be a draw..!!
Any comments or extra info...?
Do u think now-a-days cricketers have that much stamina to play for soo long time?
