I'm struggling to think of one at the moment, but from an Australian point of view I can't recall a more annoying and frustrating Test match in my 40+ years of watching Test cricket. South Africa can't put a foot wrong can they?

Steyn will become the equal 4th fastest (in matches, 29) to this milestone.
He will be equal with countryman HJ Tayfield and Ian Botham.

Quick quiz question
Who are the three players who did it faster?


Sid Barnes 24
Waqar Younis 27
Clarrie Grimmett 28


ah, I was wondering who the third one was, 24 tests is a fair effort
I thought it might have been Laker or maybe a West Indian

Edgebaston 1997, 2005, The Oval 1993 and 1997, Adelaide 1994-95 and Melbourne 1998-99 I mean there are plenty when we have had better teams compared to this one and played worst teams and failed...
