India vs Afghanistan

7 June 2026

Afghanistan squandered three clear DRS opportunities across the opening two days of the one-off Mullanpur Test, reprieving KL Rahul on 16 (who scored 100), Shubman Gill, and Rishabh Pant on deliveries that replays showed were clearly out. Captain Hashmatullah Shahidi's failure to review cost Afghanistan wickets they could not afford; India won by an innings and 300 runs.

The 1938 Oval Test — England 903/7d, Australia 201 and 123

England v Australia

1938-08-20

The fifth and timeless Test of the 1938 Ashes at The Oval saw England score 903 for 7 declared — then the highest total in Test cricket — including Len Hutton's 364, the new world Test record. Australia, with Bradman injured and McCabe absent, replied with 201 and 123 to lose by an innings and 579 runs, the largest Test margin ever. The series finished 1-1 with two draws; Australia retained the Ashes by virtue of the previous series result.
