I think you are missing
18 March 1980: PK v AU Lahore AR Border (150*), AR Border (153)

Sometimes you are good enough to do what everyone else requires two people to achieve.

He managed 2 150+ scores in one innings? TOTAB

 

[Bijed]

The 38 wickets that fell to spin in the second England vs Sri Lanka test is a record amount for a test match.

 

[Victor Ian]

He managed 2 150+ scores in one innings? TOTAB

oh bum.

 

[AndrewB]

Two 150s for the same side in a match in different innings is actually a lot less common:

 6 Feb 1954 : WI v EN, Bridgetown         CL_Walcott (220), JKC_Holt (166)

[Golden Horde]

Aryaman Birla surely holds the world record for having the richest dad by a FC centurion https://www.hindustantimes.com/cric...t-class-ton/story-SNTYzv0abdXrN2ldR4PhuO.html

Totally legit cricket stat, I know


Seems to be a talented and sensible guy, so hope he keeps getting those runs! I wonder who's the richest person to have played international or domestic cricket? Phil Edmonds apparently has a net worth of $21 million, which is still nowhere near what Tendulkar is worth

Incidentally, in the Nottingham, Auckland and Chennai matches in this list, there was a 150 scored for the other team as well.

As is evident from this list, there's never been a Test in which all four innings contained a 150; in fact AFAICT the only match were all four innings contained a score of 120+ is the Adelaide Test of 1921. Even a hundred in all four innings isn't very common (15 Tests).

Usually there wouldn't be enough time for a hundred in each innings.

 

[AndrewB]

I dare say someone's produced this list before, but I've never seen it:

Most dismissals in Test cricket (wickets + catches + stumpings):

867: Muttiah Muralitharan
833: Shane Warne
679: Anil Kumble
652: James Anderson
601: Glenn McGrath
555: Mark Boucher
548: Courtney Walsh
503: Ian Botham
498: Kapil Dev
493: Shaun Pollock
492: Jacques Kallis
472: Stuart Broad
470: Richard Hadlee
459: Harbhajan Singh
458: Wasim Akram
457: Rangana Herath
444: Dale Steyn
423: Curtly Ambrose
420: Daniel Vettori
416: Adam Gilchrist
408: Makhaya Ntini
401: Malcolm Marshall

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Bowler heavy list.

I was expecting to see Carl Llewellyn Hooper here

 

[Starfighter]

I was expecting to see Carl Llewellyn Hooper here

Why?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Why?

Excellent hands?

 

[Starfighter]

Excellent hands?

Maybe, but not exceptionally so, and few wickets.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

[Starfighter]

[mr_mister]

Pretty boring list, basically the list of most wickets with a couple of keepers sprinkled in
