Those collapses are mild by comparison to many in the past. In fact they can hardly be called a collapse.

Agreed.

If I had to choose though it's ours.

The test match between SA and AUS couple of years back when both teams got out below 100.

The Aussies were something like 23-9 weren't they?

England's 51 all out in Kingston 2009 was a total collapse. I don't believe it was England's lowest total, I seem to remember a 46ao
somewhere.

46 against Curtly and co in 1994.

England bowled the WI out for 47 in 2004.

The one I always first think of is Sarfraz Nawaz bowling Australia out from 305-3 to 310 all out to win by 71 runs at the MCG in 1979. Sarfraz took 9-86. Curious that he and Imran bowled that crazy amount of overs.

I wasn't saying these were the worst of all time ....just wondered which we thought was the worse of the two

Voted for the Aussies. At least England were batting on a bunsen.

But then... at least Australia were batting against South Africa!

Of the two, has to be Straya collapsing on their own turf.

True logic.

England lost 10 wickets in 22 overs for 64 runs.

Australia lost 10 wickets in 35 overs for 86 runs.

Statistically it has to be England.

Australia because it was at home and how SA followed it up on the next day.
