Question
During a dispute between two teams , this cricketer moved away from the stumps and let himself be bowled in a Test . Who is he ? When did it happen ?
No .It was Michael Clarke in an ODer this year wasn't it?

Okay I was thinking of Roy Dias (I think) who allowed himself to be dismissed off the last ball of the day, so the players would not have to come back the following day (SL were a long, long way behind). It ended up raining all of the next dayNo...it was long long ago...name recently mentioned somewhere...

Wally Grout?Clue - He was one of the all time greats...A gentleman cricketer - his name was mentioned in the other thread for a wrong reason...
Should give it away...
He was English, that's another Clue.

Hobbs?
Sir Jack Hobbs it was - who apparently let himself be bowled after a dispute between the 2 teams in the headingly Test of the Ashes series in 1909.
Wonder if it happened ever after that ?
Anyway your turn Archie.
