Did each manage to bowl one ball for no runs in an ODI? i.e. 0.1-0-0-0 figures. "The other was in the Albert Hall".

That's it.

PS: Demonstrated from about 3mins of this sketch:

In the recent Pak v NZ Test, Yasir skittled the Sheep for just 90. However they still managed a 50 partnership (1st wicket). This was only the 5th time in Tests that an all out score of less than 100 included a 50 stand. Can you name the others?

AO total <100 including a 50 partnership (hint: in numerical order):

? -

NZ (90) v Pak, Dubai, 2018-19 - 50 runs/1st wkt – #1 JA Raval 31/#2 TWM Latham 22

Nobody??

Sheesh, back in the day, several folk would be searching and destroying. [sigh]

Seems no-one gives a shit...

AO total <100 including a 50 partnership (hint: in numerical order):

Aus (86) v Eng, Manchester, 1902 - 54 runs/4th wkt – #4 J Darling 37/#5 SE Gregory 24

NZ (90) v Pak, Dubai, 2018-19 - 50 runs/1st wkt – #1 JA Raval 31/#2 TWM Latham 22

Aus (97) v WI, Bridgetown, 1983-84 - 50 runs/3rd wkt – #2 GM Wood 20/#4 KJ Hughes 25

Ind (98) v Eng, The Oval, 1952 - 58 runs/6th wkt – #4 VS Hazare 38/#7 DG Phadkar 17

SAf (99) v Aus, Cape Town, 1957-58 - 56 runs/2nd wkt – #2 DJ McGlew 56*/#3 RJ Wescott 18

Sorry - missed this.

And Partnership records are particularly hard to S&D.

Yeah. In this case you'd have to work your way through the lowest totals list, assume they'd be near 100 and go thru the scorecards.

Well I did give a pretty clear clue "(hint: in numerical order)" which showed there were 3 totals between 90 and 100 that fitted the bill.

Nobody reads and comprehends these days.

And of the lowest innings in history, 64 comes in at no. 50.

Maybe could have used dicinfos filter.

Not complaining just qsplaining.
