Nothing to Lose
Abhik picks another obscure game but this time with a notable feature, the highest ever tenth wicket partnership in ODIs, led by the Trinidadian Ravi Rampaul. This leads to a series of segues about camping, dodgy flights on Caribbean Airlines, The Art of War and genetics, before reviewing some memorable rearguard performances from our own cricketing lives. All of which just goes to show that people perform extraordinary feats when they have nothing left to lose.
