Could be but more likely they were all leading the sides.

No Morrison was not

 

[SJS]

All caught by the same fielder?

eg all caught by 2nd slip

Bardsley was caught by Herbert Sutcliffe that could be slips.

Morrison by Hendrick that must be in the slips or gully

Ganga by Cook and thats probably slips too.

Gavaskar has the honour of doing it on thee occasions, one of them might be slips but some of the many others who were dismissed first ball must surely have perised in the slips.

Well Morrison went 1st ball of the match at AMI stadium Feb '75
Thats the only one in his career.

The trick, for me at least, of retaining interest in a quiz here is if the questions and answers are quick. If there are long silences, one tends to lose it. I understand that with time differences this is something that is sometimes inevitable but except for emergencies, if the person posting the Quiz, keeps close contact till that quiz is answered we will keep up the interest in this thread otherwise it will stagnate as it has done for long spells of late.

Just a small observation for what it is worth
