Can you beat for the cricket guru title?

[SJS]

Yes

Sobers was the driver, Dewdney was in the front and Smith sleeping in the backseat. When the car hit a tree, Smith was thrown forward and killed.

Nawab of Pataudi Jr. later to play for and captain India with great distinction, was also in the car and lost his right eye in the accident....That makes four !!

But knows no questions

Tom Lowry married a sister of Percy Chapman.
In the hope that Jason won't mind, I am going ahead with a question -

Which unfortunate incident featured three people, all Test cricketers, the lesser involved of whom was the West Indian fastbowler Tom Dewdney ?

Thats correct !! Tom Lowry captained NZ and Percy Chapman captained England !!

Well done . But not surprising since you know the answers to almost all the questions on this Trivia !

Larwood ended up in a flower shop, didn't he ? I don't know who Notts express, but a guess for that would also be Larwood.

Larwood was 'The Notts Express' But is not the answer to the Q

Larwood ran a lollie shop

Ray Lindwall ?

 

[SJS]

Ray Lindwall ?

Lindwall is correct on both counts he did have an action similar to Larwood and he did run a florist business in Brisbane after retirement.

Go ahead with the next one Burkey.

Question

A recently achieved great cricketing record has gone largely un-noticed !! What is this record ?
Clue it was achieved in the last Month !! In a sense it is arguably one of the greatest records attainable !!

Warne, 100 Test wickets in a foreign country, first man ever to do it.
