No

*cough* CLUE TIME *cough*

 

[Jamee999]

It is to do with taking wickets (but not all in one innings)

 

[JASON]

Is it to do with taking wickets for International XI ?

* Is this thread struggling and dying a slow painful death ? *

 

[Tapioca]

Can you please check again whether McConway is one of them ? She was a wicket keeper.

Jason:

YES!

 

[Tapioca]

Sorry, I read it wrongly.

Is the answer that you expect that they have all taken 4 WI for International Women's XI ?

Yes. I was going to say that if a question is too difficult in the sense that people even cant make the effort to look for an answer we might as well provide the answer and move ahead.

And a question on women's cricket is bound to have very low interest. Other than Braganza which rang a bell, I hadnt even heard the names

Its a bit too much if it is merely an engine search and that too such a vahue one.

Humble personal opinion please.

I thought of that many many days ago but one of them hasnt according to my search, the McConway woman if I remember right.

Jason:

YES!

You are partly responsible young man

 

[Tapioca]

SJS,

Women's XI took part in two world cups and these are the bowling figures :

http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/E..._Cup_1973/International_XI_Women_Bowling.html
http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/E...p_1981-82/International_XI_Women_Bowling.html

The five bowlers to take 4 WI are Braganza, Kendall, Owens, Rattray and Badham. McConway did not take 4 WI but her name appears next to Kendall, who is the only one missing from Jamee's list. So I am taking a chance that Jamee picked the wrong name :-)

Ah !!

I looked these up and finding that McConway had best returns of 2 for something gave up

Jamee if you are wrong you will put on the CW Dunce cap

 

[Jamee999]

That's not the answer

SJS, you were on the right lines when you said about the International XI.

What have they all done which no one else has, for the International XI?

 

[SJS]

Wicket in the first over ?

 

[Jamee999]

No

Dix, zehn.

 

[SJS]

OK we give up.

Please tell the answer and post another question. (Slightly easier please)

 

[Snippie]

I'll give it a go.

Is it that they are the only women who have taken fifteen or more wickets for the International XI in all games played?

 

[Jamee999]

I was looking for 10, but as 15 is close enough
CORRECT.

 

[Tapioca]

If I read this - http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/17/17054/17054.html - correctly, McConway took 4 wickets for the International XI with a BB of 1/31.

Where is that dunce cap ?
