OK I will.

How about this one- Sam Morris became the first Black Man to play a Test Match ever ?

Yep, that's it ... born in Hobart of West Indian parents and got to play his only Test when the entire Australian XI did not play because of a dispute over the distribution of the gate receipts !!!

or highest Twenty20 innings (116) ?

Thats correct. They share the highest score in 20/20 to date. Interestingly no one has scored a century in the 2 International 20/20 matches played so far, Ricky Ponting coming close with 98 n.o in the Match v NZ.

Your turn.

Looks like Burkey is not going to post a question.

Question

Clue - they were related ! :D

Brendon and John Bracewell ??

Brothers to be dismissed for a pair in test matches. Brendon in 1978 and John in 1984. :)
