Can't remember many that have really hurt badly in terms around of turnarounds - although this one might end up being right up there if the series/match changes course as a result.

Browne/Bradshaw in the ICC Trophy 2004 was galling.
Kamran/MoYo in Lahore in 2005 summed up that tour.
Kirsten/Kallis at Old Trafford in 1998 nearly put me off cricket for life.
Kirsten/Zondeki at Headingley in 2003 was infuriating.
Astle/Cairns at Christchurch in 2002 wasn't far off the ultimate sting in the tail.

Prince/Rudolph was annoying
deVilliers/Duminy was pretty bad
Anderson/Panesar was nigh on horrible
So was Malinga/Mathews
Laxman/Dravid is an obvious one
Laxman/Sharma was bad

Nothing, however, comes close or will ever come close to

Duminy/Steyn

S. Waugh and Reiffel at Old Trafford in 1997 was the pivotal moment in losing that series.

Hooper and the WI keeper in the 2nd test in 1997/98 - we lost a game we should have won and were always playing catch up in a series that we could well have won.

SA's last wicket partnership (Paul Adams and AN Other) in the deciding final test in 1995/96 - we should have had parity after the first innings, but instead SA had a decisive lead,

Blewett S Waugh 96/97
Martyn Gilchrist 01/02
The Duminy Steyn series winning partnership made up for the above.
