The number of times a team has lost by an innings after securing 400 or more in the first innings in 140 years of test cricket from 1877 to 2016 before Dec'16 - Just 2 times
The number of times it has happened only in Dec'16 - Thrice with England being victim twice at Mumbai and Chennai and now Pakistan at Melbourne.
This is the reason I absolutely adore test cricket. It continues to evolve and you always have surprise elements and it all happens within the realms of the tried and tested tradition. This game and format never really ceases to amaze.
