New Cricket Trivia - 'SJS format'

99*

International Debutant
this matched involved SL ?
No, the last match when this occured did not involve Sri Lanka.

That's 15 questions, so another clue:

The last two times this happened were both on the same ground.
And the second time this happened was just under 100 years after the first.

Hmm TBH I've no idea about this...want to ask is Antigua the ground but feels like I'd be throwing away a question if I did lol.

Do you have any more questions, Tapioca? :p

Don't want to ask more ask more questions because the burden of the next question will fall upon my head :)

Actually, the most recent match has figured in this (or the CricketGuru) thread on two or three occasions. I am pretty sure that it is Antigua which saw this happen twice, and since the last occasion was in a match that had a triple hundred, we can cut down our investigation to just three Test matches.

I hope 99* won't mind this, but the person who was the top scorer in the innings where it happened for the second time (which was not in Antigua) died this year.

Have no problem with that, I wasn't aware of Arif's death. (Hope that wasn't too big a clue)

Yes, Antigua is the ground.

I was going to say is it all eleven of the opposition bowling? But I can't find any record of how often it's happen.......so I'll say it anyway.

Is it all eleven of the opposition bowling in an innings?:)

you are correct i think....this indeed has happened only four time ..i thougt it had happened more than four time so went with the WK taking wicket...

Ok

This record has been achieved twice in the history of the game...and this is a record which can be equaled or even can be broken.

As SJS isn't around to blow a gasket at random guesses I'm going to say taking all ten wickets in an innings achieved by Laker and Kumble. I know it says the record can be beaten and no one can take more than 10 wickets but if they did so for fewer runs then technically the record is broken.:)
