Cricket Trivia

Only 2 cricket games (both ODIs) were played at Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. One between India and Australia in 1984 and the other between India and South Africa in 1991. What is unique about them?

I happen to know this one, as purely by chance I read about it on Wikipedia the other day. It's that Kepler Wessels played in both matches, but for Aus in the first one and SA in the second.

You and I spend far too much time browsing Wikipedia. :)

I had to look at the scorecards and trawl a bit to work this one out. (I've already read the other comments.) Wessels did play in both of them, and this is, I think, unique for ODI's in India (I don't think that any other player has played an ODI for two different countries at the one ground in India).
