Thanks Archie

What do Dennis Amiss, Derek Underwood, and Geoff Arnold have in common ? Yet again, it is not as simple as they all played for England etc.

Are their more players who could be on this list? Or is it exclusive to just these 3?

They were all dismissed for a pair vs Australia in the same Test (1974-5) . One of 4 instances where 3 players were dismissed for a pair from the same Team.

Dennis Amiss had his pair delivered by DK Lillee, Derek Underwood By Ashley Mallett and the two combined to deliver Arnold's pair !! :D

" What do you think this is, a f**king tea party ?

No You can't have a f**king glass of water. You can f**king wait like all the rest of us ."
