Trivia 2020

I'm still in the dark. Penguins?

The old lady correctly guessed his name and then made a statement.

The answer will point to the teams that made the large scores that included 0, 1, 2 & 3. QED.

skully wrote:The Bergson reference relates to colour.

Bradman wrote:Okay.........After this perhaps a discussion on your perceptions of Bergson geek boy.  Still got me thinking.  Important to exe code the mind as well as the body during end of days.

Bump.

Here's one for the Search and Destroyers.

In one of the few Test matches played in 2020, Pakistan beat Bangladesh by an innings and 44 runs at Rawalpindi in February. They made 445 in their only innings. Remarkably 4 batsmen made scores of 0, 1, 2 & 3 in that all out total. Amazingly, another team made even more runs and achieved the same feat. Who and when? [Bonus; There is another game where a team scored just a few less than Pakistan and also had a 0, 1, 2 & 3]. Both matches are post 2000.

Large all out total (>400) with individual scores of 0, 1, 2 & 3:

?

Pak (445/only inns) v BD, Rawalpindi, 2019-20 - #2 Abid Ali 0; #10 Mohammad Abbas 1*; #11 Naseem Shah 2; #9 Shaheen Shah Afridi 3

?

So they're darkies?

Indeed.

Oh eck.

Was it one of those Tests after Readmission, with S Africa playing an England team with say, Daffy, Glad and whoever else in it (was Malcolm Devon still around, 2000-?) ... Ramps? Mark Butcher? Nas? are they "swarthy" enough to count?

I think I'll have to ... errr, give up!

Not that one, Peter.

Looking for 2 matches where a whole side of non-whities made near the score I have listed and one well above it - and included a 0, 1, 2 and 3 in the total.

Wat beskou jy nie wit nie.

Give us some clues that don't sound like this triv was sponsored by the Klan.

Post 2000. Totals over 400. Not Aus, Eng, SAf, NZ or Zim.

Get to the Archives.

Presumably you are referring to the Windies? Oui?

Perhaps, h.

But there are other countries who consider themselves non-white (basically the sub-continent). I seem to recall Gilly being called a WC.

There have been 3500 off innings played this century. At least 400 were over 500, which is as far as I got before I gave up. Cricinfo used to have a better filter. This is going to take some time.

Well you can eliminate the Bangers - they hardly ever make 400.

So the possible teams are WI, Ind, Pak and SL. Start with the big total (>500<600). The other total is close to the match listed. And both matches were post 2005.

Pak v Saf, Abu Dhabi 2013 - 442

What about the good guys against the Windies at the MCG in 1968?

Very good, MrK. I didn't have that one.


Large all out total (>400) with individual scores of 0, 1, 2 & 3:

WI (581/1st inns) v Ind, Basseterre, 2006 - #11 CD Collymore 0; #10 PT Collins 1; #9 JE Taylor 2; #8 D Ramdin 3

Aus (510/1st inns) v WI, Melbourne, 1968-69 - #10 JW Gleeson 0; #9 GD McKenzie 1; #8 EW Freeman 2; #11 AN Connolly 3*  

Pak (445/only inns) v BD, Rawalpindi, 2019-20 - #2 Abid Ali 0; #10 Mohammad Abbas 1*; #11 Naseem Shah 2; #9 Shaheen Shah Afridi 3

Pak (442/1st inns) v SAf, Abu Dhabi, 2013-14 - #11 Mohammad Irfan 0*; #4 Younis Khan 1; #9 Zulfiqar Babar 2; #10 Junaid Khan 3


In MrK's get, Aus was 2-435 (after Lawry, Chappell & Walters added 419 for the 2nd and 3rd wickets). They then lost 8-75!!

Those famous non-Caucasians Bill Lawry, Dougie and Chappelli ...

Looked at what?

"S & D"

Good search tools in evidence.

Just a matter of how to frame the search.

You're the Messerschmidt of S&D.

Just as well you weren't putting Keith Miller under pressure.

WI (581/1st inns) v Ind, Basseterre, 2006 - #11 CD Collymore 0; #10 PT Collins 1; #9 JE Taylor 2; #8 D Ramdin 3

= the only one with completed innings of 0, 1, 2, and 3?
