I hear they are going to give the Super Test Aust V the World to be played later this year full Test Status, will they have the guts to retrospectively award Test caps to players like Jones?
I bet Goughie hopes not! I think he had his test cap number tattooed on him along with the three lions! :D

Good point tho, the ICC are a bit too keen just now to give everything official status just now.

Same with Slater, only he had wrong number tattooed on. The ACB had the numbers reajusted to help him out.

And here is the next easy question.

What great player made a slight change to the spelling of his christian name?

ICC are so scared of losing the millions in their coffers, they will get rid of every semblence of tradition and change anything and everything to try and keep it in. :D

I have a scenario where they slowly change the game, bit by innocent harmless little bit till it becomes identical to field hockey and they drive every one away and are taken over by oh-my-Gawd KPSGill.

This person holds a batting record for people born in the country of his birth, although he played internationals for another country. Who is he and what is his record?
