ON THIS DAY IN 2011

On November 11, 2011, during the first Test between South Africa and Australia at Cape Town. South Africa needed 236 to win and on the 3rd day they were 125 for 1 when an interesting stat happened. At 11:11 am on 11/11/2011, South Africa needed just 111 runs to win.

All the while the scoreboard read 11:11 11/11/11. How much of a coincidence is that? Truly a rare moment in the game
