Question: I'm thinking of a number between one and 500. What is the number and what is its cricketing significance ?


Question 1: Ferd: Is it over 250? NO
Question 2: SJS: Is it 229, The lowest score yet to be scored by any batsman in tests ? YES

However it is important in more ways than this. Name 3 of the 4...
Clue: Of the three remaining, one is a record, one is important and one is interesting

Question 3: SJS: is the one which is a record a batting record ? YES

Complete stab in the dark.

Is it the only First Class Score that has been made 4 times in a match eg.
Team A score 229 & 229 and Team B score 229 & 229?
