5 times teams were dismissed for less than 100 in both innings of a Test

#1 South Africa dismissed for 36 and 45 by Australia at Melbourne, 1932

Present day Melbourne Cricket Ground

By the time they arrived in Australia in 1932, South Africa had become a far more accomplished cricket team but in the 5th Test at Melbourne, they delivered the worst batting performance in the history of Test cricket. South Africa batted first but could not handle the pace of Laurence Nash or the left-arm orthodox spin of Bert Ironmonger. Nash picked up 4 wickets, while Ironmonger claimed 5 as South Africa were bundled out for only 36 in 22.2 overs.

When Australia batted, it was not particularly smooth sailing for them either but they managed to make 153 in their first innings. A lead of 117 was still a substantial one and it proved to be so when South Africa batted for the second time. Yet again, it was Ironmonger who wrecked the South Africans with a 6 wicket haul and brought about their collapse for 45 runs in 31.3 overs. It is the lowest aggregate score by a team in the history of Test cricket.
