Re: Picture Quiz 8: "Whirled Cricket"
And yes, you're right - a couple of players appear in more than one picture!
(Part of the quiz is to work that out.)
I will post responses to any responses where I can.

Re: Picture Quiz 8: "Whirled Cricket"
Correct are 03, 10, 14, 16 (ouch indeed), 21 (point taken), 22, 24 (esp if Pan is short for a country name), 25, 26 and 28.
A good opening salvo of ten.
But:
01 - no no no! (wrong country, wrong hair, wrong spin action!)
02 - no
09 - not acc to my source: wrong country, and slightly too late. The clue might be in 10. Note also the stoop (with bending of the knees) not typical of 19.

Re: Picture Quiz 8: "Whirled Cricket"
wowzers! That's a big'un! Most of the old ones were unknown to me, but I'll have a gan:
I mostly guessed for those, but the others I had no idea.
- Spoiler:
2 + 30 Saqlain Mushtaq
3 - Bedi?
4 + 31 Daniel Vettori
8 - is it Venkat?
10 or 21 - I'm sure Laker's in there somewhere, but I don't know what he looks like, so these are my best guesses
11 - Johan Botha
12 - is it Chandrasekhar?
13 - Charlie Griffith?
14 - Kumble
15 - no idea but it's terrifying!
16 - Paul Adams
17 - Sonny Ramdin?
18 - Murali
22 - Warne
23 - Qadir?
24 - Shahid Afridi
26 - Garfield Sobers?
28 - Allan Border
I mostly guessed for those, but the others I had no idea.

Lardy (2)
33 - very cold: wrong continent!
34 - very warm, but look at the arm. Clue: "I know he is bowled, but is he out?"

No, I've done guessing. Will leave the others for Jill, Wally, and others.

Jill (1):
Correct are 2, 3, 4, 11, 16, 18, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 31 = 12 right. Good start.
Other responses:
8 - as warm as LB's answer to 34!
23 - no, but right country. However, the best part of a decade earlier than him
12, 17 - both wrong country and decade. (But both players you name here ARE in the Quiz!)
10, 21 - you're right, he IS in this Quiz, but not in those pictures.
You seem unsure if the plyer you name is SLA, LBG or OB!
13 - CG was a (very) fast bowler! ~ This is a painful thing to point out in the light of my error about 09 ~ this I will explain later.

5 is not the Don. Right country, rightish era, though he was a little older than the Do(ye)n of the Bat.

- 34 is Chandrasekhar. I wasn't looking at the hands for my Laker guesses, but I still don't know what he looks like! Apols for the Griffiths one, from the effort he's putting in, the chap, I couldn't tell if he was maybe bowling a fast cutter...? heh, no? ok then.
I think I'm out of luck here, although I'll read through again before I look at Wally's answers!
