Title kinda sums it up.
What are some matches where score-wise some absolutely ridiculous things happen? Here are a couple I have some across;
Leicestershire vs Essex, 2006
Leicestershire v Essex at Leicester, Sep 20-23, 2006 | Cricket Scorecard | Cricinfo.com
Basically seems to start off pretty normally. Then in Essex's second innings the only bowlers used are Paul Nixon and Darren Robinson, both who are not even bowlers. Essex's batting performance in that innings needs to be seen to be believed. I'd love for somebody to tell me what the hell was going on, because I have no idea.
Western Australia Vs South Australia, 1996

First innings Gilchrist gets 189*. South Australia eventually realise they cannot win and decided to bat it out as that will win them the Sheffield shield. Siddons gets 4 off 134 balls. May gets a duck off 52 balls. SA went on to draw the match and win the Shield.
Pretty interesting stuff.
