As one final aside, that '69 test must have been one hell of a match

Had assumed it was a run-bonanza snooze-fest. But no:
WI made 276
Aus made 533
WI made 616
Aus were 339-9 at stumps on the 5th day - so WI only needed one more wicket to win it, and Australia were only 20 runs short themselves. What a game that must have been.
