A test match is a game of 5 days. Each team has to play two innings each. But many times it happens when the test match ends before 5 days. Or else a team is able to win only by playing one inning. This has happened very rarely in the history of Test cricket when a batsman has been dismissed twice or twice on the same day of the match. Today we are telling you about some such batsmen.
