Going to be hard to guess outright so might have to do it incrementally...

Number of 4s out of number balls in successive partnerships in some massive innings, maybe Windies vs South Africa ten years ago?

Adam Lyth's contributions to England innings day-for-day during the 2015 Ashes?

Think it's progressive highest FC score record holders.

Hanif Mohammad

Don't know about the first set of question marks, though. Grace's top score was very early on iirc.

I should have thought so. Even Horrie's not quite that old. Except when the nurses are not tending to him.

Good Q, OPT.

Dennis Brookes - http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/9239.html

is a man after Monkey's own heart. One of the endless string of imports (this one from Yorkshire) who bolstered the fortunes of one of the less fashionable & less affluent counties.

He even got to play one Test.


Jack Hobbs = Dennis Brookes + Charles Burgess Fry. In what respect?
