Rick McCosker coming out to bat with a broken jaw in the Centenary Test in 1977, Shane Warne bowling for two sessions nonstop on the last day of the Ashes Test in Adelaide in 2006, Ricky Ponting scoring a hundred in each innings in his 100th Test and a couple of matches later Justin Langer getting knocked out first ball in his 100th – cricket works in mysterious ways. But it is not only in Tests that the magic of our game comes to the fore. What about the impossible miraculous limited-overs wins? At the IPL in 2013 we needed to score 198 in 14.3 overs. It was one of those equations that should have been simply impossible. No one gave us a chance. Yet we hit a six off the last ball to win. It was another miracle provided by the game we love. Miracles? Sachin Tendulkar played 200 Test matches. How can that be? How does someone play even 100 Test matches, let alone 200? The 434 game in South Africa – in which we got beaten. The list goes on and on. Cricket delivers mind-blowing outcomes that keep millions of us enthralled. It will continue to do that in all three forms of the game for a long time to come.
