    Doesn't Ashwin (100 Tests) count as my second 75-100 pick, with Inzamam (120) as my 100-120 pick (and Waugh as my 120+ pick)?

    Were dead rubber tests a real thing?

    It's actually commoner in Ashes series in Australia: England in 1891-2, 1950-1, 1974-5, 2002-3 (and also England won the 4th Test when 3-0 down in 1924-5) Australia in 1903-4, 1928-9, 1986-7

    Were dead rubber tests a real thing?

    2008 v South Africa (Pietersen's brief captaincy). Before that I think you have to go back to 1966 v West Indies - as in 2008, England had a new captain (Close); and before that was Jessop's match in 1902. Also, Australia did it in 2015.
