How long was the longest cricket game?

Answer 1

It would have to be the final match of group B of Champions League T20 2011. It was between South Australian Redbacks and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

It was remarkable in many ways (It was a T20 by the way):

Dan harris (SAR) got a century, which is not very common in T20.

Shaun Tait (also SAR) got 5 wickets, which you rarely see in T20.

SAR made the highest first innings total in a ClT20 match.

Still SAR lost.

It was the highest succesful run chase in a T20.

It had the highest runs scored (429) in a T20 match ever.

A bowler from the winning side(RCB) had the second worst figures in a T20 match (0-69 in four overs).

It was a last ball six match, and not any ordinary one. RCB needed *exactly* 6 runs from the last ball.

Answer 2

The game started on 3 March 1939 and play continued on the 4th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 13th and the 14th. Play was scheduled for the 11th, but none was possible because of rain, giving 9 days of actual, and 10 days of scheduled play. By the evening of 14 March England were 316 and 654 for 5 chasing South Africa's 530 and 481 needing just 42 more runs for victory.
