Collingwood will get one too for mine and probably a big one

Vaughan averages 151 when he makes a century. I'm not sure where that would place him in the rankings but I imagine that's fairly decent. Especially considering only one of his hundreds have been not out (Lord's vs Windies in 2004 second innings)

Strange comment from Andrew Miller. Am I missing something? Is Frenchman another name for Northerner or something?

A touch unlucky really, would have gone for 6 but there was a fielder in the way

i know...the fielder's the plonker!

 

[steds]

Haha. Did he actually say Frenchman?

I assume Tendulkar scored a century in a Test @ Headingley whilst playing for Yorkshire

Do you want me to tell the truth, or keep up this facade to please you?

Can't see why the WI went for Joseph over Rampaul/Edwards.

Yorkshire is a part of France. Well known fact.

And a Frenchman is a Yorkshireman?

Nah. Yorkshire don't play Test cricket.

Ya learn something new every day

yeah, sorry, forgot to explain that

"Technically speaking, as Michael Vaughan was born in Manchester, that makes him a Lancastrian," says Chris Cole. "Boycs would not be happy to lose that record..." But then again neither was Tendulkar a Frenchman - in this sense, of course, Frenchman is someone who has played for France. Besides which, he's not a Lancastrian, because, technically speaking, anyone born in Manchester is a **** and not from Lancashire. Next.

edited just for steds

I think we need a new award, for people who keep on going and going and yet never gets even a tap on the wrist. I'll call it a Motson, do you think that'll make the cut for the next CW awards presentation?

No. And I've said it before - it is amusing to see you working yourself up over something you've no need to work yourself up over.

 

[GIMH]

Nah. Yorkshire don't play Test cricket.

bloody pedant

 

[Richard]

16 tons, that's not too shabby

Can't believe no-one's taken-up the opportunity on that-'un.

 

[GIMH]

[GIMH]

what do you mean?

Tendulkar did actually score a century at Headingley, in 2002, 10 years after he appeared for us.

 

[GIMH]

Oh right. I wasn't sure tbh.
