AUS vs IND: Had Somebody Scored Even 30, 36 Would Have Remained 36: Bishan Singh Bedi
It was a sunny day on June 24, 1974, when India were all out for 42 -- their lowest innings score then in Test cricket -- against England in London, and it was a bright day in Adelaide on December 19, 2020, when India broke that dubious record, pointed out illustrious former spinner Bishan Singh Bedi. He played that match at Lord's over 46 years ago and on Saturday, watched the third day's play of India's first Test against Australia on TV at his Delhi residence.
One difference between the two undesirable 'feats' was that the ball didn't swing at Lord's, but it moved at the Adelaide Oval. Another was that in 1974, one Indian batsman -- Eknath Solkar -- reached double figures, while on Saturday, all players from the visiting team were dismissed for single-digit scores. Solkar was unbeaten on 18 runs off 17 balls (105.88), comprising two boundaries and one six, in 34 minutes. There were two ducks 46 years ago and there were three on Saturday.
