I remember seeing all the records of cricket as a kid and thinking "Man, some of these records will never be broken."

Look how many have occurred in the past 10 years. And the Bangers only appear once on this particular list.

Here's one where you should be able to guess 'em. Can you name the 10 players who have top scored for their sides in completed Test innings (all out or declared) 30 or more times in their careers?
