Don't forget Bob played for Oz in about 7 separate decades ...

Though hang on - Shakib is 3rd AND 5th? What's going on?!

I see you've stumbled onto a source, Peter.

Keep that to yourself, ay?? Shakib is 5th. The 3rd entry is wrongly named.

But only 4 times batted together after Cowper scored his triple v England in 65-66.

The query was doubting their careers had overlapped, not how many times they'd played after ... etc.

So I answered the query.

You are up late, Peter.

Yeah Pete I probably shouldn't drink this early. Ta for the heads up.

dont use pinko maths and you'll find they did overlap

Ashtray Full would be up there for the first question.

Possibly Javed Omar for the last?

Tamim?

I was in the classics form.

Is Pidge on the lowest ratio list?

Aye to Ashtray, but Omar didn't play 50 Tests (40)

I meant possibly Javed Omar for the last question. He batted 80 times in 40 tests so he would have a ratio of 2.00

... but I guess someone must have played between 41 & 49 tests otherwise you would have realized why I mentioned him.

Is Morne on the lowest list as well?

JGK wrote:Is Morne on the lowest list as well?

Or Ntini?

Ah, sorry Wally.

Looks good. Had a brainfade on Omars.

Nothing too tough today skulls. Scan a 300 list then look for openers from crap teams and 11s from good teams.
