probably not the answer

but he has the highest average of 123 (only had 1 chance though) for batsmen when they are chasing a total to win a test match. he did it against bangladesh

Hi Jason,

This question seems to have turned to the 20-question format. Is it okay if we continue in this way. If you agree I will ask the next question :)

The last time I did that I was reprimanded :huh: kidding

Q What record does Zimbabwe's Trevor Gripper hold ?

Q1 Is it some thing to do with who he has represented ? No.
Q2 Lowest Batting Strike rate ? No
Q3 Something to do with how long he batted in minutes ? No
Q4 probably not the answer , but he has the highest average of 123 (only had 1 chance though) for batsmen when they are chasing a total to win a test match. he did it against bangladesh ? Definitely not the answer !! :D
Jason's early clue -
The record was achieved against the same opponents. :)

Is it in ODI's ?
Q 5 Is it in ODIs? No

White Dazzler's online - hence additional clue :D Q3 is somewhat close to the answer in a way. :D :D

Is it a test record ?

Is it something to be proud of ?

Was it achieved while batting ?
