Guess the cricketer from their stats

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Simple game - can you identify the cricketer based upon their average in each country?

If you guess correctly, you win 1/2 an internet point and the honour of setting the next question.

Gentle one to start: can you identify this cricketer from their bowling averages?

In Australia	136.33
In England	34.11
In India	11.50
In New Zealand	247.00
In South Africa	53.25
In Sri Lanka	39.75
In U.A.E.	23.66
In West Indies	23.39
In Zimbabwe	31.00

David Warner?

Edit: it's bowling averages so cancel that.

 

[CricAddict]

Saeed Ajmal?

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Easy - Jason Holder. I knew he was great in the WI and terrible in NZ and Aus (I knew those 2 averages) and the WI seems about right. Amazing in India though.

I will need time to think of the next question though.

Is it Sir Wags?

Indeed it is.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Does someone else want a go? Sorry, but I need to get to sleep. I'm happy to let someone else do this.

Otherwise, I can do it tomorrow NZT.

Kyle Jamieson?

 

[ataraxia]

Kyle Jamieson?

Hasn't played in Aus or WI, or SA

 

[Howe_zat]

Jamieson also took wickets in England.

It's probably a West Indies or India player since those are the 'normal' averages which would suggest that's where they've played the most.

Edit: or a part-timer

 

[Pothas]

Looks like a part-timer as I am assuming he played but didn't take a wicket in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and UAE.

That would also suggest that they aren't a spinner. Basically I have no idea.

 

[grecian]

Could be a batter that bowls, Maybe someone like Hammond

 

[Brook's side]

Guess the cricketer from their bowling averages:

In Australia	72.16​
In Bangladesh	-
In England	87.00​
In India	35.66​
In New Zealand	17.00​
In South Africa	10.33​
In Sri Lanka	-
In U.A.E.	-
In West Indies	22.00​

So I think it's someone who played between 1932 and 1952.

Which either means 1932-1939 or 1942-1952
