Can you beat for the cricket guru title?

[Burpey]

Thanks Jason, a good break which would have been great if the Kangas could have won!

This is a two parter the first of which is easy
Name the bowler known as Tangles?
Name the bowler from the same state whom bowled in the same style?

Hint he played Test Cricket in the 70s

And is the other bowler Alan "Froggy" Thomson ?

No

 

[JASON]

No

412/3 - Australia Women v Denmark Women - when the only known Double century in ODI cricket thus far was scored !! *trick question*

 

[archie mac]

I thought that was a bit easy

I read the Q a couple of times, I thought the trick may be WSC Cricket, but it never occured to me that we would be talking Womens Cricket. ('not that there is anything wrong with it!', 'No not at all') A little trivia quote there

Which captain said this? 'Our aim is to win 6-0"
And what was the final score?

 

[Burpey]

Tony Greig v West Indies ? Ended up losing 3-0

Tony Greig v West Indies ? Ended up losing 3-0

I think Greigy said 'We will make them grovel'

This quote is from an Ashes series, and it is not Tony Greig

I thought because it was a 6 Test series that would help

 

[Burpey]

Mike Denness in 74-75 ? Lost 4-1
