Not just any Boxing Day Test match - A century at a Melbourne Boxing Day Test Match

Do South Africa have cricket on Boxing Day as well?

 

[Jager]

Does this mean played only in WI, Eng and Aust, or played in the three countries at least, and possibly in others as well?

Keen as for this to start, trying to think tactically. Great concept.

Good question, will have to chase kyear up on that!

 

[watson]

Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand all have Boxing Day Test matches. Even India has had the occasional Boxing day Test match (eg Kolkata 1987).

 

[Jager]

kyear to clear up his clause. Marcuss, kk and Eds to submit, then we're on our way

 

[kingkallis]

Ok lemme go through last few pages as I am totally lost now!

 

[Jager]

You have to make up your own rule e.g "select a player who played with Sachin"

 

[kingkallis]

Select a wicket keeper with batting average of 25+ and 200+ dismissals

 

[Jager]

Test or combined dismissals?

 

[watson]

OR: A bowler who took 14 wickets or more during the WSC Super Tests.

 

[watson]

Select a wicket keeper with batting average of 25+ and 200+ dismissals

Would there be enough keepers to go around?

That batting average of 25+ seems high when lined up against 200+ dismissals?

 

[Jager]

Oh yeah, should clarify that at a bare minimum there needs to be 12 people to select from, preferably 25+ at least.

 

[kyear2]

Played in ALL of those countries

 

[Jager]

Were they allowed to play in other countries too? Or just those three

 

[kyear2]

At least those 3

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Jager, are we doing the player who bowled Bradman or bowled out Bradman

 

[Jager]

Bowled as in hit the stumps bowled, I believe

 

[kingkallis]

Hmmmm I guess its a bit harsh....maybe average of 25 and 50 dismissals?

 

[Jager]

Hmmm. Now that I've thought about it, I am not sure it's a good idea to have a wicketkeeper-specific clause because it doesn't really have any strategy to it - people will just choose their wicketkeeper as normal whenever they want to.

Any other ideas, kk?

A player who has been dismissed as part of a hattrick in Test cricket
