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.

by PeterCS Tue 24 Apr 2018, 03:33

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.

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

by WideWally Tue 24 Apr 2018, 04:07

Ashtray Full would be up there for the first question.

Possibly Javed Omar for the last?

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.

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