Hi Everyone,
This is a new rapid fire type cricket trivia thread, being started to encourage active participation of more cricket web members on line. It will be based on the SJS format and the following posts by SJS explains the format.

SJS said:What I have in mind is that instead of running after search engines or trying to get the answer by hitting in the dark, we allow everyone to ask questions from the QM. The condition being that the questions are answerable in YES or NO or NOT APPLICABLE.
This will increase the genuine participation of everyone. We need to, of course limit the number of such 'information-eliciting' questions, anything from 10 to 15 or 20.
If after the questions limit has been exhausted, the QM reveals the answer and asks the next question.
The questions can be much more vague and still one can get to them.
The only problem is that, the QM has to be available for answering the queries but I feel we should give it a try .
SJS said:I suggest queries for each question are numbered by the query poser and also what ever has been 'discovered' towards the answer is repeated.
Example :
QM : One of the worlds greatest fielders of his time ??
Query : Q1-Is he white ?
QM : Answer 1 : No. (One of the worlds greatest fielders of his time -not white)
Query : Is he Black ?
QO : Ans 2. Yes (One of the worlds greatest fielders of his time-Black)
and so on. This is important for obvious reasons.
I think we can start with twenty queries and change the number AND modify other rules (with agreement of course) if required as we go along.
