Yet another Cricket Quiz!

It is a West Indian, but not Collymore.

2001 hmmmmm my first thoughts are King and Dillon but i reckon it might be more obscure. I am still assuming it's a quick cos all West Indies spinners have always been part timers who were batsmen.

It's a quick, but nether King or Dillon.

Trying to think of who else they had around that time. Went through a few. Cuffy?

That's the one. Cuffy had figures of 10-2-20-0; and because of this economy (West Indies won by 29 runs), he was the Man of the Match.

I'm going to guess zero for question two. I don't know the answer.

Yep - Australia won on all 11 occasions.

Q5 - Did they all make ducks in their 1st 2-3 ODI innings... Remember poor old Kenny had a shocking start to his career.

That's cos he was crap which relates back to my original answer

How hard is it, played cricket, go to the cricket, watch all the cricket I can on telly, then you get these quizzes, and really after 30 odd years of all the above, I actually know nothing about the bloody game

6. The match finished inside two full days.

[Benchwarmer]

5. Involvement with rebel groups or bust-ups with management?

Hayward, More - ICL
Larkins and Labrooy - Sth Africa
Rutherford - went and played in Sth Africa at one point after issues with NZC

[Benchwarmer]

5. Very left field and admit to Cricinfo-ing this question ... but were they all South African Cricketers of the Year (Hayward and Rutherford definitely have, Larkins may well have - as too More ... but Labrooy is a long bow drawn) from the South African Cricket Annual.

[Benchwarmer]

My bad - the FOURTH Test was inside two days ... how could I ever doubt you, spelly!

[spell_check]

None of the above answers is what I am looking for.

Clues:

1 - The player who is left died of malaria.

5 - These players will be the only players to have what they have for their country.

6 - It's to do with the 2nd day of the Test.

But still not the answer I am looking for.

6. Having Cricinfo-ed this one (I am losing patience), I saw that 21 wickets fell and the players left the field early before tea for bad light but returned.

I am fairly sure that it is not a record for most wickets in the day and no player was out twice in the day.

Shit, you got me!


BTW - WATTO JUST SCORED ANOTHER DUCK! (4 baller!!!)

[rogernumber10]

Okay, another crack.

6 - Test Team bowled out inside a session at Lord's for the first time?

5 - All of the five were the same number player in debut order for their country?

[rogernumber10]

Last one

1. I asked a good friend last night who is a cricket stat nut for the last death. He has nominated Trevor Madondo from Zimbabwe in his email back

You are close!

[spell_check]

Okay, another crack.

5 - All of the five were the same number player in debut order for their country?

No, not the answer I'm looking for no 6. "Bowled out" is another clue though, so you're not far off, like Benchwarmer.

5 - That's the answer! Each player was the 50th player to debut for their country.

And that's the last player I needed.
