4 times the last batting pair doubled the team score

#2 Peter Siddle and Nathan Lyon: South Africa vs Australia, Cape Town 2011

Australia were 21/9 against South Africa at Cape Town in 2011 before Peter Siddle and Nathan Lyon added 26 for the last wicket

Brief Scores: South Africa 96 (Smith 37; Watson 5/17, Harris 4/33) and 236/2 (Amla 112, Smith 101*; Siddle 1/49) beat Australia 284 (Clarke 151; Steyn 4/55, Philander 3/63) and 47 (Lyon 14; Philander 5/15, Morkel 3/9) by 8 wickets

In an epic Test match that lasted merely three days, Australia were threatened to be bowled out for the lowest ever team total against South Africa at Cape Town in 2011. After skittling out the hosts for 96 in the first innings courtesy a dream spell of 5/17 from Shane Watson, the visiting side slumped to an astonishing 21/9 inside the twelfth over.

Debutant Vernon Philander, who had already scalped three wickets in the first innings, bagged 5/15 with the ball dancing around either way to bamboozle one Australian batsman after another. But the final pair of Peter Siddle and Nathan Lyon not only negotiated a rampaging Philander, Morne Morkel and Dale Steyn, but also the lowest Test total of 26 by New Zealand way back in 1955. The duo added 26 themselves before Australia folded up for 47, ending up wasting their first innings lead of 188 to lose the Test by 8 wickets, South Africa easily hunting down 236.
