New Cricket Trivia - 'SJS format'

[indian_legend]

Does it involve scoring 100s???

 

[Furball]

No

 

[Jarquis]

Ducks?

 

[Furball]

No

 

[Flyonthewall]

Is it related to modes of dismissal?

 

[fredfertang]

Are they the five victims in Test cricket of a man rather more noted for his batting than his bowling?

 

[Jarquis]

Quite happy with myself for knowing who as soon as I read Fertang's comment

 

[Furball]

Are they the five victims in Test cricket of a man rather more noted for his batting than his bowling?

Yes.

Bonus point if you can name (without checking cricinfo) the names of those who complete this particular player's set of victims.

 

[Jarquis]

I know he got Lara at some point.

 

[Furball]

I know he got Lara at some point.

That's one.

 

[zaremba]

Ponting or Katich?

 

[Jarquis]

Chimpy.

 

[Furball]

His other 2 ODI victims were Arjuna Ranatunga and Heath Streak.

Not actually a terrible collection of scalps, it has to be said.

 

[indian_legend]

Is the player an Aussie???

 

[SJS]

Is it an Indian ?
Are all the dismissals in the same format ?

 

[Jarquis]

The answer is Ponting

 

[Furball]

Yep, Marcuss (with a bit of help) has it.

Asanka Gurusinha, Jimmy Adams, Moin Khan, Ridley Jacobs and Michael Vaughan have all been dismissed by Ricky Ponting in Tests.

The other 3 mentioned - Arjuna Ranatunga, Brian Lara and Heath Streak - have all been dismissed by Ponting in ODIs.

Not a bad list of scalps for a part timer.

 

[zaremba]

Quiet for a while, so I'll leap in.

What do Victor Trumper, Archie Maclaren and Phil Simmonds have in common?

 

[fredfertang]

Does it relate to performances in Test matches?

 

[zaremba]

It does.
