Andrew Hilditch, current SA captain, was out handled the ball in 1978 when
he innocently picked up the ball and handed it to Safraz Narwaz, who
appealed. Hilditch then ashamedly walked back to the hutch.

This was probably one of the silliest pieces of "gamesmanship" ever seen.
Australia were about 0/70 chasing 90. Sarfraz simply made a fool of
himself and lowered Hilditch's test average.
