Worst choke ever

Which is the worst choke ever by a team in your opinion?
The NZ vs SA match today is high up in the rankings in that.

I do remember a match in which Kallis and Klusener choked against India in India while chasing an easy target and couldnt chase it even though they had wickets in hand. They hardly scored runs in the end overs, which were mostly bowled by Sehwag. For some reason, couldn't remember exactly which match it is.

Edit: Lets keep it to the choke as used in cricket terms and do not post pics of chokes :)

Just so we're clear, a choke is when a team has a situation which is fairly straightforward and that they really, really should win from and they **** it up, yes?

Yep, or equally "cannot lose" (in the case of tests).

Today's T20 and Adelaide 2006 the worst I've ever seen.

What about the 438 game? - shouldn't Australia been able to defend that especially after having SA 1/7?
