    JAMTests - they are upon us

    On a pedantic note, West Indies had played Tests in England before that; it was their first home Tests. More relevantly, you wouldn't even have got close to a full strength England team of 1930 if you combined the two squads; they were missing Hobbs, Sutcliffe, Hammond, Larwood and Tate, for...

    MWM draft

    I think it's just @SillyCowCorner1 to finish? Also - 20 is a lot of teams to compare... any opinions on how the voting should work?

    Run-out on Test Debut

    This got me wondering how strong the "was out hit wicket in a Test at some point" XI would be. It turns out to be ridiculously good, considering only about 150 players qualify: Jack Hobbs Len Hutton Don Bradman George Headley Brian Lara Kumar Sangakkara+ Keith Miller Ian Botham Mike Procter...

    Run-out on Test Debut

    I guess you mean Martin Crowe, but either Crowe would qualify. Jack Ryder is still the only player who qualifies twice.
