Alan Border adding 77 for the last wicket to earn a draw against India at the MCG. India had to chase a lot more and the rain ruined it

Laxman/Ishant from 135/8 winning the test
 
Kusal Perera's in SA last year. Better than Stokes innings today as it was chanceless.
 
I know Jayasuriya added like 101 for the last wicket and he scored lie 99 of them. It was against Pakistan. I think match was drawn.

WHy are all the indian posters suddenly bringing up laxman in every thread?

THis is stokes time

We have several dedicated stokes threads where we only talk about stokes. This is about innings with tail. You could add Waqar younis helping sealing the test against Australia.
 
Inzamam with Mushtaq in 1994 v Australia.

Also he batted with rookie Yasir Ali I think in the 2003 Multan Test vs Bangladesh.
 
Lara vs Aussies in 2-2 draw series in Carribean. That was a masterful knock.

Inzi/mushy put on 58 for last wicket vs Aussies in 1994.
 
What about Asif Iqbal 146 at the Oval in 1967 close to the best innings of all time and Gundappa Vishwanath unbeaten 97 at Madras v West Indies?2 sheer masterpieces.Vishys knock was ranked amongst the top wisden 10.Never also forget Inzamams unbeaten 58 v Australia in 1994 to win a game batting with the tail and his 138 against Bangladesh.

I'm sure most PPers parents weren't even alive to see that first knock:yk3

The long Stewart-Croft partnership to hold off S.A. in 1998.
 
Botham’s Headingley when England were following on. Botham and the tailenders took what looked like an innings loss to setting a target of 120, and England won.
 
Azhar Mahmood in Durban 1998, Came in 89/5 and Batted with tail from 127/6 to 259 all out

batted with Mushy, waqar, shoaib and fazal e akbar.

Against an Attack of Donald, pollock, devilliers and kluesner.

pretty much was one of reasons we won that test.
