RIP Mr Woolmer, We are all poorer for your loss.
Nasser Hussain and Graham Thorpes 288 run partnership at Edgbaston against the Aussies in '97 was a beauty.

Yousuf & Younis's in the 3rd Test wasn't half bad. Must be one of the best in a losing cause.
Speaking of which, Lee & Kasprowicz in the 2nd Ashes Test last year might not have been the prettiest, but it was certainly one of the gamest last wicket partnerships I've seen. Deserved to win it really, but I'm eternally glad they didn't!

Well the top 10 i've seen since watching cricket (97 to now), in no specific order:
1.Laxman/Dravid, Kolkatta 2001
2.Langer/Gilchrist, Hobart 1999
3.Thorpe/White, Lahore 2000
4.Waugh/Blewett, Jo'Burg 1997
5.Slater/Waugh, Rawalpindi 98
6.Laxman/Dravid, Adelaide 2003
7.Thorpe/Flintoff, Christchurch 2002
8.Gilchrist/Martyn, Jo'Burg 2002
9.Hayden/Ponting, Brisbane 2002
10.Smith/Gibbs, Birmingham 2003
I liked the Tresco/Strauss one at Jo'burg a couple of years back. Think they set an opening record for England v SA or some such, was when Strauss could do absolutely nothing wrong and averaged more than old man Pollock

Thommo and Border 1982/83 MCG 10th wicket
You know it makes sense.
The highest partnership in a lost Test.

Beware the evils of Kit-Kats - they're immoral apparently.
The partnership between the Waughs in the 4th test against the West Indies in 1995. Took the score from 3/73 to 4/304 with the series on the line against a fearsome attack.
It's cold on the outside they say
But the cold leaves you clear while the heat leaves a haze
yup the waughs come to mind as mentioned above.
Waugh and Blewitt was also very good. iirc waugh got out for 160 and blewett 210
Without doubt
VVS, Dravid 2001
Just to be a little different, Martyn/Gillespie Chennai 2004 was a good'un.
Flintoff/Simon Jones at Edgbaston too.
