Q981
Mark Ramprakash won high accolades for ballroom dancing. Which one of Ramprakash's former Test and domestic first-class cricket colleagues also claimed to have achieved success in this glittering sphere of endeavour? Johnlp (talk) 20:37, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Ramprakash had started his career at Middlesex. Mike Gatting had once won the bronze medal in ballroom dancing at the Neasden Ritz. Are you talking about him? Ovshake (talk) 05:33, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * That's the one. Well done. Over to you. Johnlp (talk) 06:30, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Q982
What do the following sequences represent? M D S M K N R I N C A and M M N M N P J N C D S? Ovshake (talk) 09:24, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * 11 sets of alphabets ,in each set.So the initials of some team that played a match against some other team.The match now I need to find out . ?Sumant81 (talk) 10:24, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Precisely. Think why I gave just the first alphabet. Ovshake (talk) 10:31, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

I think it would not make sense if you give the whole names, that is why you gave the initials. Just kidding. Any clues? **SRI** (talk) 12:56, 24 April 2009 (UTC)


 * At first I thought it might be the Australian Aboriginal cricket team in England in 1868 that did not have the surnames.So only first name is important.Another line of thought I had was seeing 3 Ms and 2Ns maybe it is set of brothers.Any of them on the right track ? Sumant81 (talk) 13:03, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

If I gave the full names anyone would have got it. There's something curious involved in their full names. Please note that all 22 players concerned are basically nobodies in the history of the game, yet between them they created history while playing the match. Ovshake (talk) 14:36, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Are you referring to the members of the Team Tenzing and Team Norgay who played a T20 cricket match at the Everest Base camp recently? Meyyis (talk) 15:29, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * A good guess; but do you really think that anyone would have guessed it if I had given the full name? Ovshake (talk) 15:56, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * BTW, just thought I'd mention here that the teams were possible named Tenzing and Hillary. Tenzing Norgay was one person. And didn't the match get called off, thanks to some Nepalese redtapism? Ovshake (talk) 15:56, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Ohh they did play eventually getting past all that .Some exquisite pics Sumant81 (talk) 02:36, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

It was played at Bradford in 2001. Ovshake (talk) 18:28, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
 * All the 22 players had the surname Patel.That is why only the first letter is important.Sumant81 (talk) 02:36, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Perfect. This is the match report, which also contains a basic batting scorecard. Over to you. Ovshake (talk) 04:32, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Q983
What word literally meaning "free citizen" in its native language was brought into vogue by virtue of a Sri Lankan law that pertains to people of European ancestry but was made more famous in cricketing world after the 2003 Cricket World Cup Sumant81 (talk) 12:49, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you mean the Burghers? --Roisterer (talk) 13:04, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * That was quick.Yes I was referring to Burghers which means "free citizen" in dutch.They are the term used for minorities of European origin in the Sri Lankan law.Just for the record Michael Tissera was probably the first international Burgher!Sumant81 (talk) 13:08, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Q984
Which former cricket club scorer organised for which former Test cricketer to attend the final press conference of which former world leader? All three people needed, thanks. --Roisterer (talk) 14:26, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * For a clue, none of the three knew it would be the world leader's final press conference. And the former Test cricketer was at the press conference as part of his day job. --Roisterer (talk) 10:23, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Maybe the leader was assassinated later on and hence no one knew ? Sumant81 (talk) 14:59, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * He was indeed assassinated. --Roisterer (talk) 15:17, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Ermm, Jack Fingleton and John F Kennedy? WillE (talk) 21:14, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes! and Yes! The third is probably too obscure so I'll give it to you. Pierre Salinger, Kennedy's Press Secretary, was a club scorer in his younger days and remained a cricket fan so when he heard Fingleton was going to be in Washington in November 1963, the two caught up and got on so well Salinger bent the rules to get Fingleton into Kennedy's next press conference without the required secret service once over. --Roisterer (talk) 05:10, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Goodness me. JFK was an educated guess, but Jack Fingleton was a wild hoick across the line with six needed to win off the last ball! Will post a question tomorrow night BST. WillE (talk) 22:43, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Q985
What links Reuben Paul and Robin Hobbs? There may be others to add to this list. WillE (talk) 12:35, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Reaching 50 in the fewest balls?&mdash;MDCollins (talk) 13:35, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Reaching 50/100 in quickest balls, and having an author as a semi-namesake? Ovshake (talk) 13:55, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Paul Reubens and Robin Hobb, in other words. Ovshake (talk) 13:57, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

No, and no, but interesting. Hobbs' fast batting is a coincidence, as is Paul's five or six consecutive sixes. WillE (talk) 16:45, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Reuben Paul was suspended from first class cricket for damaging the pitch during the game.Was Robin Hobbs ever banned from bowling for running on the pitch? Sumant81 (talk) 02:27, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Not that I know of. It's milestone related. WillE (talk) 13:14, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

They have reached all their n000 milestones with a six? (Blind guess) Ovshake (talk) 12:55, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
 * A cursory examination of their career stats should reveal a strange fact... WillE (talk) 17:51, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

All the first class centuries they scored are exactly equal to 100. Wikimaze (talk) 18:36, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
 * That'll do. More than one first class hundred, but a top score of exactly 100 or 100*. Over to Mr Maze. WillE (talk) 20:16, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
 * For completeness, the others in the list are David Blake,Matthew Wade,Suru Nayak,Tarun Kumar,Aman Kumar,Raju Gayashan Sumant81 (talk) 02:03, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Q986
What is common between Derek Underwood,Lance Gibbs and Syd Gregory ?. Wikimaze (talk) 20:55, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Are there other people to add to the list?Else list of common things is,they batted in positions from 3-11 ,they were wisden cricketers of the year at different points of time. Sumant81 (talk) 04:54, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * At present, they are the only people in the list. Wikimaze (talk) 5:38, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It is actually a thresholded list. It is easy Guys. Wikimaze (talk) 18:36, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Question guideline 1, if you please... Ovshake (talk) 10:19, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok then, They haven't done a 'thing', which is quite common now a days, despite getting 'significant occasions' for doing so. Wikimaze (talk) 10:48, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * They haven't hit a six having batted in 100+ innings. Although I doubt the data regarding the sixes would be correct for the earlier matches.Sumant81 (talk) 12:07, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * That's right. Over to you. Wikimaze (talk) 12:29, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Q987
The story goes that on the morning of every test match,this English cricketers wife would send him a good luck telegram that he would keep in his hip pocket.Going through a bad patch in the middle of his career,he asked his wife to change the message.She wrote "Vincit qui patitur" .Though he did not understand what it meant,he went on to score a double century that would be his highest innings.Later when he asked his wife what it meant,she said "He who endures,conquers" .Just name the cricketer. Sumant81 (talk) 16:11, 2 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Peter May? WillE (talk) 18:28, 2 May 2009 (UTC)


 * No another player whose era intersected with Peter May.He shared a close bond with this wife ,who accompanied him in most of his trips .Probably the first player whose wife travelled everywhere in those early days. Sumant81 (talk) 00:53, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Ken Barrington Bharath (talk) 11:56, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * That is correct.The incident referred to was the test match where he made his score of 256. Sumant81 (talk) 12:19, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Q988
What does Charlie Townsend ,Ladha Ramji and Les Jackson Have in Common? Bharath (talk) 13:42, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it must be obvious, as they've only 5 Tests between the 3 of them (as per Guideline 2), but I'm currently drawing a blank. Do any others share this feat? 89.243.246.161 (talk) 18:51, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Adding a hint on behalf of Bharath. It is a first class record. Courtney Walsh and David Lawrence together achieved something very similar in 1986. Tintin 08:10, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

All the three bowlers have taken hat-tricks in which all the three dismissals were effected by the wicket-keepers (Townsend against Somerset in 1893, Ramji against Railways A in 1931 and Jackson against Worcestershire in 1958). All the Townsend's dismissals were stumpings whereas Ramji's and Jackson's were caught-behinds. Wikimaze (talk) 20:47, 5 May 2009 (UTC)


 * On Bharath's behalf again - correct, and over to you. Tintin 07:03, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * What is the reference to "Courtney Walsh and David Lawrence together achieved something" ?Sumant81 (talk) 12:14, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * They were the bowlers when Jack Russell took a hat-trick of catches in 1986 (see the last question here). wisems (talk) 14:04, 7 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for my Behalfs Tintin, talking about Jack Russell, Tony Frost also took a wicket keeping hattrick by taking 3 cathes in successive balls, ( 1 in the Bowling of GG Wagg(Azhar Mahmood) and 2 off NM Carter(Alec  Stewart & IDK Salisbury) see : http://www.cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/77/77310.html Bharath (talk) 14:07, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Q990
Rule 3 used, What connects a great cricketer to the song "Choli ke piche kya hai"? 117.97.152.55 (talk) 11:03, 9 May 2009 (UTC)user:Gyan guru
 * Sorry, but I suppose this violates Question Guideline 2, though I'm not sure (I know my Q961 was somewhat a regional question, but this is somehow a lot more regional). Questions of these kinds can have multiple answers, neither of which can be considered as wrong. Some examples are given below, all containing one great cricketer or the other: Ovshake (talk) 13:04, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 * The song was used in the background of Slumdog Millionaire. The film had a cricket bookie as a character, and had Sachin Tendulkar's 99 run out shown on TV as a scene. Ovshake (talk) 12:36, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Ila Arun had sung the song originally and the promotional track for Rajasthan Royals. Shane Warne captains them. Ovshake (talk) 12:41, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 * The song is from the Subhash Ghai-directed film Khalnayak. Ghai had also produced the cricket-based movie Iqbal where Kapil Dev had a guest appearance. Ovshake (talk) 12:45, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 * The song was choreographed by Saroj Khan. She was the judge of the reality show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa that had Mohinder Amarnath as a participant. Ovshake (talk) 12:54, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Additionally, The song was composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal. The two composers met each other while playing cricket. Ovshake (talk) 14:01, 9 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok.. Neena Gupta Featured in this song, its a Known fact that Neena Gupta and Sir Viv Richards had a One-night stand(see this Source before Slapping me! or simply google on "Neena gupta viv richards"), the Question says a "Great cricketer" involved so i can only think of this !! Bharath (talk) 14:02, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

How about a multiple choice clue? Something like: is it a) Sunil Gavaskar, b) Kapil Dev, c) Sachin Tendulakr or d) I don't care. --Travis Basevi (talk) 18:43, 9 May 2009 (UTC)


 * It Should be "d) You don't care". :P Bharath (talk) 19:12, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Bharat's answer is the one i'm looking for (talk) 122.174.87.226 (talk)user:Gyan guru

Q991
Rule 3 invoked (for some reason I thought the right to post the 1000th question would be keenly contested for).
 * On the first test his debut tour, Sunil Gavaskar saw Gary Sobers taking a blinder in the slips to dismiss Kenia Jayantilal. He got excited and told his neighbour Eknath Solkar - "Wow! All I want to do now is to see _________________ and it doesn't matter if I play on this trip or not." - What was he talking about? Ovshake (talk) 07:34, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Rohan Kanhai bat ? please sign in with your user name ,instead of IP. Sumant81 (talk) 04:07, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Rohan Kanhai's falling sweep shot. Tintin 06:44, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that was me. I've removed the IP at the end of the question. Tintin gets it right. Ovshake (talk) 07:34, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Looks like you got it from 'idols'..

Q992
As a tribute to Q.976, the same two-word phrase is the title of volumes of autobiography by three Test captains whose careers are spread across some 40 years. But unlike that pair, this group of players did it (in the cricketing sense) some 450 times. Who are (or were) they ? Tintin 08:03, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Opening Up, by Geoff Boycott, Glenn Turner and Mike Atherton? Ovshake (talk) 10:35, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Boycott had opened 191 times, Turner 67 and Atherton 197 - so basically a total of 453 times... Ovshake (talk) 10:38, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Right, over to you. Tintin 10:46, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Q993
When India took their long-awaited trip to Pakistan in 1978, the tour party, including the entire squad and some journalists, saw a bus and a Toyota waiting for them. The manager, Fatehsinghrao Gaekwad, the erstwhile King of Baroda, a Member of Parliament, an ex-chairman of BCCI, an honourary life member of MCC, a renowned radio commentator and what not, assumed that the Toyota was for him and advanced. However, the chauffeur told him firmly to go to the bus, since the Toyota was meant only for someone. Who? Ovshake (talk) 11:32, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Lala Amarnath Sumant81 (talk) 11:34, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Ramachandra Guha, I guess. Or some other source ? Tintin 11:49, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

No, it was Guha. Is TWO MINUTES the new record? Over to Sumant81. Ovshake (talk) 12:05, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * This is the record :-) Tintin 12:20, 11 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Whenever I try to post a question, it's either based on obscure numbers, or too easy. *** sulk *** Ovshake (talk) 12:05, 11 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Oye Ovshake Bhai, why did you "Rule 3" my Chance?(Q991 after 990 I.E) 24 Hours were not over!! I was waiting for the Confirmation from the Q maker, and i Believe 24 hours didn't went by after his Confirmation, its Not Fair :-( Bharath (talk) 12:28, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Bharat ,please go ahead with the next question if you want.I am going to be travelling and may have infrequent access only. Sumant81 (talk) 12:44, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * My sincere apologies, mate. I can put up two semi-solid excuses, though - the time zones, and the fact that the quiz has really slowed down over the last few days. Anyway, you got to ask one, and hope this one stays more than two minutes. Ovshake (talk) 17:00, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks Tintin... :) Ovshake (talk) 17:00, 11 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks Sumant, sometimes i wonder why people remove the "H" from my Name :-| Bharath (talk) 03:09, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Q994
among those cricketers who have a Alliterative Name, who has taken most test catches? Bharath (talk) 03:11, 12 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Colin Cowdrey is excluded[just to make things more entertaining ;) ] Bharath (talk) 03:13, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Robert Russell (who has more than Cowdrey anyway). If you want to exclude keepers then it's Graham Gooch.  --KingStrato (talk) 06:15, 12 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I Think Robert Russell was famous with his name as "Jack Russell" so i didn't count him. Anyway, Goochie is Correct, your Turn King-Start-Oh! Bharath (talk) 14:10, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

I thought it might be a trick question :)

I'm a little busy at present, can someone else ask? --KingStrato (talk) 07:15, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

i will take it (-;, which cricketer scored 122* on his first class debut while carrying his bat(his age was under 18)?117.97.140.122 (talk) 10:21, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Please sign with your user name like this ~ .Avoid using IPs. Sumant81 (talk) 11:28, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Does his first name start with T ? Tintin 11:20, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I was not trying to be funny. Was thinking about a 17 year old who scored a hundred on debut; found that he was Terence Harris but he doesn't fit the other requirements. The answer to this question is another chap named Hubert Freakes Tintin 11:29, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It's finally nice to have you back, Tintin. Hope the nervous nineties don't affect you in any way... but shall we ever know who asked the question? I'm somewhat curious, since I've never seen mirror images of smileys... Ovshake (talk) 12:07, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

I suppose you've got this one spot on. Will you proceed with the next one? Our unnamed asker doesn't seem to be around... Ovshake (talk) 12:45, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Okay, please give me a little more time. Tintin 12:55, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

More time? Ovshake (talk) 12:23, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Q997
What is special about an event that has never occurred in a test match,but has occurred very nearly in 246 other occasions and rather uniquely in this match.I am looking at the complete answer with regards to what was the original event in question as well as to why the near occasion mentioned was unique ? Sumant81 (talk) 14:18, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It is something to do with the dismissals. Sumant81 (talk) 02:58, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Most number of ways of dismissals a bowler can affect a dismissal? I can see bowled, caught and bowled, caught keeper, caught fielder, stumped, LBW, hit wicket. Is it THIS rare? Ovshake (talk) 03:31, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I suppose the original event was asking the tests where all the eight "conventional" dismissals (bowled, caught keeper, caught fielder, stumped, LBW, hit wicket, run out) have occurred. Seven kinds have occurred in 246 occasions that included a run out (and has missed out on any one of the rest, I'm sure the list shall be hit-wicket dominated), but this test mentioned has all kinds that can be affected by a bowler. Was that clear? :) Ovshake (talk) 03:39, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You are so close but not there yet.For clarification,this is one of those 246 and is absolutely unique in comparison with the other 245.And as a added hint,do not think of the event for a team but for an individual. Sumant81 (talk) 04:05, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

I can see Harry Trott having two stumpings, a hit wicket, two LBWs and a bowled. So, is this having four kinds of dismissals as a bowler in a test? Going a bit further, is this having four kinds of dismissals as a bowler having (a) six or less dismissals, or (b) having no batsmen caught off his bowling? Ovshake (talk) 05:48, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * So let me rephrase, 246 bowlers have ever inflicted four kinds of dismissals in the same test, of them, Harry Trott is the only one to have done it without having anyone caught? Ovshake (talk) 05:49, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thats the one I was looking for.No bowler has achieved all the possible five forms of dismissals in the same test.The best is 4.Harry Trott is unique in that ,he is the only one who had the caught as the missing dismissal.Well done and over to you Sumant81 (talk) 05:53, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Q998
Which first-class cricketer once wrote a story where the protagonist bowled fast balls that darted towards the sky, then rocketed down towards the wicket with great speed and accuracy, thereby earning an England cap? Ovshake (talk) 06:56, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Arthur Conan Doyle's Spedegue's Dropper. Tintin 06:59, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Q999
When did a wicket-keeper named Jack Ellis shout, "Come on, there's three in it. ..... Long live Victoria !" ? Also fill up the second line, though that is not necessary for points. (It would be better if you guess rather than google ...) Tintin 07:07, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Ellis made that comment when he took a three to ensure that Victoria went past their own records score of 1,059, en route to 1,107. Ovshake (talk) 07:28, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't have anything worthy of the 1000th question. Can you post ANOTHER ONE? Ovshake (talk) 07:33, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Fine. This particular quote was ""Come on, there's three in it. The thousand up. Long live Victoria !" when Victoria reached 1000 on the way to 1107. Over to you for No.1000 Tintin 07:30, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Weirdly, I was planning on asking this exact question on my next turn. --Roisterer (talk) 11:31, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Q1000
All right. In the absence of other suggestions. The first would be either Charles Bannerman or Billy Murdoch. The second would be EM or WG Grace. The third is either George Glover or George Rowe. Give me two names, one of which would have been the fourth in the series? Johnlp (talk) 15:59, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Martin, Constantine or Mr. Extras. Tintin 17:08, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Exactly. Well done. I was rather ignoring Mr Extras, but of course he may well figure. For those not in the loop, Bannerman and Murdoch were at the wicket when Australia got to 1000 Test runs; the Graces were there for England, a little later; Glover and Rowe were batting when South Africa reached 1000 (in their 11th innings!); and the next team to get there were the West Indies in 1928, when Frank Martin and Learie Constantine were the batsmen. Over to you, Tintin, for the next millennium. Johnlp (talk) 17:20, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
