7) England vs Australia, Lord’s, 12 – 16 June 1902
Australia travelled to Lord’s London for the second of a 5 match Test series in bad shape. Affected by the persistent rain, a number of the players in the squad were down with flu and were complaining of weakness. Play was only possible for under 2 hours on day 1 where England elected to bat first and recovered from a poor start to get to 102 for the loss of two wickets. Archie McLaren and Stanley Jackson scored half-centuries for the hosts.
Having occured 114 years ago, this is the least recent of all the Tests in this list.
Total balls bowled: 228 (38 overs)
Score: Eng – 102/2 in 38 overs, Aus – N/A
