Can you beat for the cricket guru title?

[Sudeep]

You're welcome.

Thanks. I still think it was a "good" and not "great" series though.

Don't worry. His highness shall be appeased in October.

Still haven't got my point through - "good" only because of the result, the cricket was "great" - now?

And let's not give Neil a headache by spoiling this one too .

Actually as the viewers that's what matters most. And the results don't say everything, though they say a lot.

 

[Sudeep]

Where's koch_cha?

 

[Sudeep]

Waiting...

 

[Gaijin-san]

I think it reverts to you, Sudeep.. Its been longer than a day.

 

[Sudeep]

Yeah, but koch_cha has already asked the question. He just hasn't returned to confirm the answers.

Kapil Dev has dismissed 9 people in the 90's thats why he's happy!

U R Correct!!!

and sorry to every one
i was tied up at place where there was noc chance of browsing

 

[superkingdave]

Okay, an easy one... which player has the highest strike rate of those who have got 200 wickets

 

[Jamee999]

Is that highest or best?

If best
Waqar Younis.

 

[superkingdave]

Highest, not Waqar

 

[marc71178]

Sobers (assuming it's talking Tests)

 

[superkingdave]

yeah, not too tricky but the only other ones i could think of were really obscure.

 

[marc71178]

Obscure is fun!

Speaking of which.

Only 2 people saw bits of the only 2 innings in FC History that add up to 1000 in total.

Name them...

 

[Tom Halsey]

I know the innings, know not the 2 people who saw them...

 

[Neil Pickup]

Hanif Mohammad's cousin was one..

 

[Neil Pickup]

Mushtaq Mohammad and Bob Woolmer.

Woolmer's father was working in Karachi and Bob, who was 11 at time, was at the ground when Hanif got 499. He was the coach of Warwickshire when Lara got his 501*. Mushtaq played in that match and, has long resided in Birmingham and is a frequent visitor to Edgbaston.

Ginger gets it

 

[Neil Pickup]

Two batsmen are both unbeaten as a limited-overs match nears its end.

Freddy, on strike, is on 92*, and Geraint, at the non-strikers end, is on 94*.

The team need nine to win off three balls.

All three balls are delivered legitimately, the team wins, and both batsmen make centuries.

How?
