I see you're struggling a little Somerset.

Ah something comes to mind of a question a while ago...

Ah - bowling every over in the innings?
Yes ... against England in 93-94 at Port-of-Spain they bowled unchanged in a completed innings, the first West Indian duo to do so. England were bowled out for 46, with Ambrose taking 6-24 and Walsh 3-16 ( must have been a run out )

Ah ha - took a while but I finally got there!

I captained my country and once declared on the verge of a test record. Who am I and what would the record have been?
