Q 14 Has it to do with Double Centuries ?
Q 15 Has it to do with how quickly batsmen scored a certain amount of runs?
Q 16 Has it got to do with Team totals in excess of a certain score ?
This question is heading nowhere, and no one seems to have any idea and unless there are more clues, it is heading down a blind alley !!
Hence the 3 questions to try and expedite it to a finish !!
