Walking through history at Queen’s Park Oval

The Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain did not host any T20 World Cup matches this year but served as a training base for the teams. The match took place in 2001, featuring South Africa’s second Test against the West Indies in Port of Spain. Courtney Walsh of the West Indies celebrates with fellow West Indies team-mates his 500th Test Wicket after trapping Jacques Kallis lbw for a duck during the 2nd Test played between South Africa and the West Indies at Queens Park Oval in Port of Spain Trinidad in 2021. All the very best in all you do, and thanks for the honour!” Additionally, the exhibit features two match balls used by the host and visiting teams, a commemorative medal, the stumps used in that Test with Cable & Wireless - who South Africa would go on to win the five-match Test series 2-1 and follow it up with a 5-2 drubbing of the West Indies in the ODIs. It immortalises MacKay and Kline’s splendid rear-guard action, with every West Indies fielder crowding around the bat, that denied the visiting team a series lead, with Australia ultimately winning 2-1.
