"SPECTACLES" means when a batsman gets out on 'duck' (i.e. gets out without scoring a single run in both innings of a Test match) he is said to have scored a PAIR or in other words that batsman is said to be wearing SPECTACLES (cos the 2 round lens resemble a pair of spectacles).
When batsman is out for zero in 1st innings and when he comes into bat for 2nd innings...commentator would say "And XYZ .. He is ON A PAIR" (that means he is facing the probability of making a pair) and if he indeed gets out 2nd time also... he would have actually SCORED a PAIR.
