An English Cricket team has scored 10 ducks is the most amazing completed cricket innings ever.

Glastonbury Seconds were bowled out by their arch rival Dishforth for a team total of 5 with none of the batsman scoring a run. All the runs were scored from extras with the last remaining batsman scoring 0*.

Dishforth lost two wickets before successfully achieving the target score of 6.

Glastonbury's coach blamed the wicket for his team's poor performance. He also believes the result could be character building.

Bloody hell! How embarrasing! Would have been even more funny had their been no extras.

The truly amazing part was that ALL were caught- none were bowled, lbw or even run out. Heard an interview with one of the players this morning- actually, they had won the corresponding fixture last year and are known for their batting depth!
