The 5 deadliest cricket pitches of all time

#2 Sabina Park, Jamaica, West Indies (1998)

The test match between England and West Indies on Sabina cricket stadium was abandoned

The West Indian pitches were always known for their pace and bounce in the past. Out of all the grounds located in the West Indies, Sabina Park holds the history of having one of the deadliest cricket pitches.

The first match of the Test series in 1998 between England and West Indies was played at Sabina Park that witnessed quite a few dramatic scenes. The pitch on that ground became so wild that the ball started bouncing in an uneven manner. The situation became so much worse that the match was forced to be abandoned after 10.1 overs only.

The England team somehow scored 17 runs from that 10.1 overs by defending some deadliest bouncers from Ambrose and Walsh. The match was immediately called off due to this unexpected behaviour of the pitch.
