No, there has been at least one Englishman run out in both innings of the same test.

Here's a couple of clues to get things moving.

1. He was playing instead of Geoff Boycott, which was ironic.

2. The game was historic for the opponents.

John Jameson, Oval 1971.

I'll pass my turn to ask the question as I won't be around for too long today.

That's the one. It was India's first test and series win in England.

Since no one has asked a question, I'll do it.

Which West Indian cricketer, who played all his cricket in the 2000s, is named after a Hollywood actor ?

Ryan O'Neal Hinds was the name I was looking for, but looks like Hurley was also named after the same guy.

Your turn.

Clue 2:Something to do with that and the number of Tests at that time (pretty much giving it all away there).

At that point the no. of tests played was = no. of ODI's played
(with Aus vs WI 4th test match of the '99 series being test #1454)

Interesting..
