Here's my question, May be easy for some !

Question

Who has faced the most dot balls in one innings in the history of Test Cricket ? (Since the question may be easy) Please give the exact number of dot balls faced by this individual ? (only that will be considered the correct answer )

Hanif Mohammad during his 337 agaisnt WIndies ?
Not as far as I know.

But If you can give the number of dot balls Hanif faced I may be able to give it to you.

The answer I have is different.

Others may still attempt to answer it.

NO. Just guess work. Pakistan played more than 300 overs. He played till the end. So he must have had over six hundred dot balls at least :p

Jason, how dare you assume your answer to Coney's question is correct and start a new question? You often do this and all credit to you you are often correct. however, i feel it is unfair to assume your answer is correct, which is actually wrong, and start another question. this is slack to coney and the rest of us

You are correct. Of course we need Jason to confirm but it is correct. He retired after the solitary test against Zimbabwe in 1999 which was the first of the winning streak !

scott muller was close he played in the 2nd and 3rd game of the streak. Ian Healy drpped after Zim the 1st match of the winning streak, replace of course by gilchrist.

Oh fish sticks. Now I need to think of a question. One more craftier than the other, made of 60ft atomic monsters with hexagonal heads with enough power to destroy a whole city! *goes off ranting and raving*

Ok then...who was the first Lancastrian player to score a test hundred at Old Trafford, in which year and what was his final score?

Also for extra credits, what was his nick name?

In what respect is Herbert Sutcliffe's batting record in test matches superior to every other batsman in the history of the game , including Bradman.
