Q181

What is common between Neil Harvey, William Ward, 2nd Earl of Dudley who was the Governor of Australia between 1908 and 1911, William Morris 'Billy' Hughes who was Aus PM in the 1920s and Rohan Kanhai ?! Tintin (talk) 13:46, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hint 1 : You can add Everton FC to that list. Tintin (talk) 00:24, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hint 2 : Richard Nixon and Abraham Lincoln are two others who can be grouped with those above but it may not be a helpful clue. But if I add the name of the aviator Keith Smith, it should ring some bells. Tintin (talk) 11:47, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Each has had an international cricketer named after them? I am thinking of Neil Harvey Fairbrother,William Morris Lawry, Everton Matambanadzo, Nixon McLean, Lincoln Abraham Roberts and Keith Miller (although I'm unsure who was named after William Ward or Rohan Kanhai). --Roisterer 13:32, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Beat me to it! You know, I thought of this almost immediately with Rohan Kanhai, but dismissed it becayse I could't think of the others: other famous cricketers been named after then? Neil Fairbrother, ... , ... , Rohan Gavaskar, Everton Weekes, various Nixons (probably not named for Tricky Dickie though) and Lincolns, Keith Miller ... -- ALoan (Talk) 13:34, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm - not Dudley Nourse? -- ALoan (Talk) 13:37, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Roisterer wins by two minutes. It is Everton Weekes and Dudley Nourse. Nixon Alexie Macnamara Maclean is named after Nixon, Aleksei Kosygin and Robert McNamara. According to Dudley Nourse's autobiography, Nourse Sr. scored a double hundred against South Australia a few days before Dudley Nourse was born. When Earl Dudley heard about the innings and the son, he expressed the wish that the baby be named after him. Tintin (talk) 13:43, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was an awesome question! I didn't have the slightest idea that that was what you were looking for...:)--Deville (Talk) 18:09, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q183

Who has a city and the Test ground at that city named after him ? Tintin (talk) 05:30, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't there be a couple of possible answers to this; William Lamb, 2nd Viscount Melbourne, Thomas Townshend, 1st Viscount Sydney and Neharawa (after whom Harare and indirectly Harare Sports Club is named)? --Roisterer 06:14, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I hadn't thought about such cases. So I'll add the extra condition that the city and the ground have different names (ie, not Melbourne and MCG etc.) Tintin (talk) 06:39, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I Spent a while trying to work this one out - please tell me it's Eden Park, Auckland (George Eden 1st Earl of Auckland)? Dingbatdan 07:22, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is, and your turn. (Sorry Roisterer) Tintin (talk) 07:37, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q184

Hope this isn't too easy...which English opening batsman of recent years has a fist-class hat-trick to his name? Dingbatdan 04:32, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does it have to be a test Batsman, or do ODI's count? Kingfisherswift 10:28, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not Ian Bell, is it? Kingfisherswift 10:33, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification - Test Batsman, and sorry it isn't Ian Bell Dingbatdan 11:30, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus Trescothick. Johnlp 17:15, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That it was - A Hat-Trick with 3 aussie test players as well - Over to you Dingbatdan 00:56, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q185

I'm looking for a UK politician, a Cabinet minister in the 1970s. He wasn't a cricketer himself, but his father played first-class cricket fairly regularly under his real name. The father once, though, turned out in a first-class match under a false name, because he was playing truant (allegedly ill) from his job in the civil service at the time and didn't want his employer to know. Johnlp 21:20, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it is not the answer, but Alec Douglas-Home is the only British Prime Minister to have played first-class cricket himself (10 matches for Oxford and Middlesex in the 1920s), but that is not the answer :) -- ALoan (Talk) 10:34, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's not the answer, but it's helpful. Said politician served in Alec Douglas-Home's government and, more seniorly, in a later one in the 1970s where Douglas-Home was also a Cabinet member (but not Prime Minister). Johnlp 11:25, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Then you must be talking about Geoffrey Rippon, who was Secretary of Technology in the Heath government, and later Secretary for the Environment after the first post was removed. His father, Sydney Rippon, played 104 matches for Somerset, but only 103 of them under his correct name: he played as "S Trimnell" against Gloucestershire in 1919 [1]. --Deville (Talk) 11:43, 16 May 2006 (UTC) modifed --Deville (Talk) 11:48, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll also mention that I noted Douglas-Home's career and was thinking that that would make a good future question. I bet I stumbled upon that tidbit the same way you did, Aloan...;P --Deville (Talk) 11:48, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Google searches, and the databases at Cricinfo, Howstat, CricketArchive, etc, make many questions easier than a question-setter may hope :) -- ALoan (Talk) 12:36, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This suggests that that is the right answer, and explains what Cricinfo does not. -- ALoan (Talk) 12:40, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well done, Deville. Geoffrey Rippon confirmed the detail of the story about his father to David Foot, the author of the Somerset CC history. BTW, Alec Douglas-Home may be the only UK Prime Minister to have played first-class cricket, but the son and grandson of another PM played... Another question for another time, perhaps? Johnlp 13:33, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly not: I have found Primroses, père et fils - we even have articles on both of them! -- ALoan (Talk) 15:08, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see I'm going to have to up the arcana quotient in future. ;-) Johnlp 15:15, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I support I ought to mention Lord Rosebery, and his son and grandson, both known by the courtesy title of Lord Dalmeny (the latter who died young and never succeeded to the Earldom). -- ALoan (Talk) 10:14, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q186

What is the significance of the following group of names: Frederick, Gilbert, Mills? --Deville (Talk) 17:52, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Middle names of the three Graces. Johnlp 18:03, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That is correct. Also, I waiting for the day that I come up with a question which stumps people for more than ten minutes. I thought that one was going to be trickier...:) --Deville (Talk) 18:36, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm waiting for the day when I can turn up and find that there's a question waiting to be answered. I have a great question lined up for asking if I ever get one. KingStrato 21:22, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q187

Not sure this one is going to last very long either. It's an attempt to bring together the last two questions. So, what daft connection did a fairly recent UK Prime Minister claim that there was between cricket in the time of the Graces (W.G., E.M., and G.F.) and his own Cabinet? Johnlp 21:24, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clue? Johnlp 19:49, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think so. Clearly it was harder than you thought, or we're all missing something pretty obvious. --Wisd e n17 20:39, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please! -- Deville (Talk) 20:40, 17 May 2006 (UTC) (edit-conflicted please, no less)[reply]

Okay. The daft connection is a Daft connection, the PM was a major figure in the 1990s and the Cabinet colleague he was referring to had a secretarial rather than a ministerial role. Johnlp 21:17, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've been away for a couple of days and this doesn't seem to have changed. Should I provide more clues, the answer (and a different question) or what? Johnlp 23:03, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't know. I can say, for myself, that I'm stymied here. Perhaps more clues would help? -- Deville (Talk) 23:12, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Right. John Major, interviewed on Test Match Special on the radio, was asked by Brian Johnston whether there were any other people in his government who were keen on cricket, apart from himself. Major said Yes, that Tom King was probably the best cricketer in the Cabinet and that Peter Brooke was as good at factual matters and stats as Bill Frindall (seems unlikely), and that a direct descendant of the great Victorian cricketer Richard Daft (the Northern rival of the Graces) also attended Cabinet meetings. The question is: Who is that alleged descendant? A further clue might be found in Richard Daft's son's middle name. BTW, the answer isn't in Google that I can see. Johnlp 23:25, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Would we be speaking of Robin Butler, Baron Butler of Brockwell, John Major's Cabinet Secretary? -- Deville (Talk) 23:44, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Got there! Well done. Butler is, according to Major, Richard Daft's great-grandson. The whole exchange between Major and Brian Johnston is in "More Views from the Boundary", a collection of the interviews of celebrities in the lunch and/or tea intervals of Test Match Special. Over to you. Johnlp 08:56, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that was a lot harder than you originally expected, I bet. Also, sorry to all for the long time to respond...

Q188

Here's one which also may go quickly. What is the fewest number of wickets lost by a Test side which subsequently lost the Test? --Deville (Talk) 14:15, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

South Africa 248 for 8 decl and forfeited the second innings. 'Cronje's Test' in 1999-00. Tintin (talk) 14:23, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well done. Arghh! I don't know if I can get a question to last ten minutes! :) It's on to you, Tintin -- Deville (Talk) 15:16, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q189

Which former head (PM, President etc) of an independent country in the Indian subcontinent was a first class cricketer ? Tintin (talk) 14:54, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How about Hardit Malik, who was prime minister of Patiala? -- Deville (Talk) 16:09, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't know that, thank you for that info. I have once again messed up the question. What I meant by 'independent' was that he became the head of state after 1947/1948. Sorry. Tintin (talk) 16:17, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean Nawaz Sharif, some time Prime Minister of Pakistan, who played one game for Pakistan Railways in 1973-74? Johnlp 20:31, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nawaz Sharif was the person that I was looking for. Note that his YoB in the Wiki article is 1949 while in Cricketarchive it is 1948. Tinkering with the age seems to extend all kinds of cricketers. Tintin (talk) 02:02, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q190

I'm looking for a Test player who, in a war-time match (and therefore not first-class), hit 11 sixes off 12 balls, including nine consecutive sixes. I want to know who, and where. Johnlp 07:08, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dudley Nourse. Don't remember the details. Tintin (talk) 07:09, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Egypt ? Tintin (talk) 07:10, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

At least Deville's questions last for more than one minute! Yes, correct, well done: it was in Cairo in 1942-43 and among the players stationed there was a young Jim Laker, who wrote later that it was a good learning experience to bowl to people like Nourse who were in their prime at the time. Over to you. Johnlp 08:27, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q191

Following on from Q.189, with recent Asian head of state, who held a number of top positions in his country for something like thirty years, was a first class cricketer as well ? Tintin (talk) 08:43, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think you'll need to drop us a clue, Tintin :) QazPlm 00:25, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think I should replace this question because it is too obscure, maybe after waiting for another day.

Hint 1 - His few first class matches were for his national team. (As for more hints, the question excludes Indian subcontitent (which was covered by Q.189). He was in politics for atleast thirty years, which implies that he probably played cricket sometime between 1940 and 1960. From which it follows that he was from a country with some cricketing pedigree - not upstarts like UAE.) Tintin (talk) 09:27, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kamisese Mara, who was the PM of Fiji from 1967 to 1992 and President from 1993 to 2000, was part of the Fiji team that toured New Zealand in 1953-4, some of whose matches were given fc status [2] Tintin (talk) 05:24, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q192

Who died fourteen days after playing a Test match, the shortest interval between appearing in a Test and one's death. Tintin (talk) 05:24, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alas, poor Fred (Grace). Johnlp 08:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC) BTW, is Fiji in Asia?[reply]

Right. He died from pneumonia. Those who lived less than a year are Jock Cameron (enteric fever, 74 days), Dodger Whysall (a fall on the dance floor followed by septicaemia, 81 days), Collie Smith (car crash, 162 days), Trevor Madondo (malaria, 163 days), Ken Wadsworth (cancer, 184 days) and Frank Milligan (Boer war, 360 days). Tintin (talk) 09:41, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re, John's other query - looks like Fiji is part of Australia. I was under the impression that it was somewhere in the region of Indonesia. No wonder no one even tried it :-\ That makes it three errors in my last three questions :-((( Tintin (talk) 12:50, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q193

If Tintin extended his list in Q192 from a year to 18 months, which well-known thoroughfare in several continents would be included? Johnlp 13:01, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean a George Street of England, who died 1 year and 93 days after his only test in 1922/23? Dingbatdan 14:42, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I do indeed. Wikipedia lists several George Streets; one of the human ones was a Sussex wicketkeeper who played a single Test in 1922-23 and then died in a motorcycle crash just before the start of the 1924 season. Over to you. Johnlp 14:53, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Irrelevant trivia : In his only Test, Street and George Macaulay went in at No.10 and 11 in the first innings, and they opened in the second. There has been only one other instance of Ten and Jack opening in the other innings - India v NZ, Christchurch, 1989-90, NZ needed 5 to win in the second innings and sent Martin Snedden and Danny Morrison to open. Tintin (talk) 14:58, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q194

What surprising bowling analysis does a Bowler have? Dingbatdan 15:31, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Bowler was a decent batsman but don't know about his bowling :-) Tintin (talk) 15:40, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you're on the right track! Dingbatdan 00:03, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He was a wicketkeeper? QazPlm 12:17, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He only kept sometimes... Dingbatdan 13:46, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is Peter Bowler the relevant person? From Cricinfo, he seems to be the only person with the name "Bowler" to have played first-class cricket.[3] His bowling record is relatively undistinguished: 34 first-class and 13 List A wickest; best bowling of 3-for in first-class and List A matches, two wickets in his three Under-19 Tests and one in his two Under-19 ODIs.[4] [5] Is it anything to do with his age (he retired aged over 40)?

On the other hand, CricketArchive have a few other "Bowler"s. As well as Peter Bowler, there is a "Bowler" (no initials) who bowled in three matches for Herefordshire against Glamorgan in the 1890s; a "D Bowler" who played (without bowling) for Norfolk Young Amateurs against Essex Young Amateurs in 1974; a "J Bowler" who played (also without bowling) for Derbyshire Second XI against Leicestershire Second XI in 1971; an "R Bowler" (but I can't see access a scorecard); and a "T Bowler" who bowled for Wiltshire Cricket Board Under-17s against Glamorgan and Wales Academy Under-17s in 2005. None has a particularly spectacular record... -- ALoan (Talk) 14:02, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is Peter Bowler, and I refer to a specific analysis he recorded. Dingbatdan 00:23, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hint: He had an infinitely high economy rate Dingbatdan 10:40, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You are no doubt talking about this match [6] where Bowler produced the bowling analysis of 0 0 0 6. Apparently he was given the ball with Lancashire needing 6 to win, his first ball was a no ball (which incurred a two run penalty against the bowler) which was hit for four. --Roisterer 15:26, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That I am - Over to you. Dingbatdan 00:12, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q195

Which county/state/province/territory/division has produced two test cricketers, each of whom have scored test centuries (but one of whom not for the country he was born in)? --Roisterer 07:53, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Northern Territory? Damien Martyn (Australia)& Matthew Sinclair (New Zealand)? Dingbatdan 10:08, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that question lasted 2 hours and fifteen minutes, up from 2 hours and 2 minutes from my last question. Yes, Damien Martyn and Mathew Sinclair are the only Northern Territorians to play test cricket. --Roisterer 17:06, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q196

What speedy onsalught made a future English fast bowler cry? Dingbatdan 03:51, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hint: 102 was scored off 6 overs at one stage in this match. Dingbatdan 23:36, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is anyone alive out there? Because (I didn't realise this) the answer to the question is googleable with my hint... Dingbatdan 13:16, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ken Farnes, interesting story [7]. --Gurubrahma 15:17, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

But of course - over to you. Dingbatdan 00:08, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q197

I thought that cricketer-politicians are a breed conspicuous by their absence. However, I was proved wrong when the cat swelled to 33. So, a related question - When Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi contested the Lok Sabha elections, which Indian cricketer threatened to contest against him? This shd be easy. --Gurubrahma 05:20, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lala Amarnath - I don't know anything about Indian cricket before late 1980s at least. I found it on the Pataudi page.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 05:24, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Smartaleck! I wanted someone with a sense of history to talk abt the relations between these two. Anyways, the baton passes to you. --Gurubrahma 06:58, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q198

A rather cryptic one. "X was run out for 99" Who is he? There are a few that would fit, but not the obvious interpretation.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 07:08, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, a batsmen has been run out for 99 on thirteen occasions in Tests alone... [8] Are you asking about an occasion when a batsman was run out for 99 by his partner, rather than running himself out? -- ALoan (Talk) 10:51, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It may be worth adding that being dismissed for 99 in an ODI is a bit rarer. The following list does not give "how out" but I would be surprised if as many as 10 were run out.[9] And that Jason Gallian was run out for 199 twice in 2005.[10] -- ALoan (Talk) 13:55, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don Bradman? (though he was not run out...) --Gurubrahma 14:13, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could you mean Steve Waugh in this match? Glenn McGrath was run out for the ninth wicket trying to get Waugh his ton, leaving Waugh on 99, and then Craig McDermott put on six more without getting one to Waugh and was run out himself for the last wicket. Interestingly enough in this match, Jo Angel was run out for the eight wicket as well right before this whole business started. -- Deville (Talk) 16:33, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't a run-out in the conventional cricketing terminology sense. This maybe rather difficult.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 00:22, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A cricketer who died aged 99? -- ALoan (Talk) 13:55, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, it is about his cricketing life though.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 23:42, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, some people have been "dismissed" going for their 99th run, as it were. The oldest person ever to have played in Tests was Francis MacKinnon (The MacKinnon of Mackinnon, 35th Chief Of The Mackinnon Clan), who died a few weeks before his 99th birthday.[11] (The oldest living Test players are currently 95 and will overtake Wilf Rhodes as the second oldest person ever to have played in Tests.[12].)

And Frank Shipston, then the oldest living first-class cricketer, died on the eve of his 99th birthday on 6 July 2005.[13] The oldest first-class cricketer in history was the Jim Hutchinson, who died in 2000 a few days before his 104th birthday.[14] -- ALoan (Talk) 23:44, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is a cricket statistic, not a peripheral thing about his life.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 07:41, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

M. Azharuddin ? Tintin (talk) 07:59, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent, Mohammad Azharuddin played 99 Test matches before being run out of the sport for match fixing. Over to you Tintin, supersleuth.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 08:01, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q199

Thanks. This English cricketer played three Tests in his career (all in the 2000s, but doesn't look likely to get another match in the immediate future) and won Man of the Match awards in the first two. Who ? Tintin (talk) 08:10, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for the link. This looks fun. Is the answer Richard Johnson? Dweller 09:31, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is. Well done. You have to ask the next one. Tintin (talk) 09:51, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Crikey. Pressure's on to think of a goody then. Dweller 09:52, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, we like the easy ones too... ;) -- ALoan (Talk) 10:26, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Q200

I married an actress. I was the unlucky 13th. And there's a clue to my Test highest score in the question. Who am I? Dweller 10:45, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mohsin Khan? He married Bollywood movie star Reena Roy;[15] his highest score was 200 against England at Lord's in 1982, the first double century by a Pakistani at Lord's;[16][17] he was the 13th person to be out to the first ball of a Test, lbw to Kapil Dev in Jalandhar in 1983.[18][19] -- ALoan (Talk) 11:18, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. And I thought it was too hard! Yes, it's Mohsin Khan. He married an actress, was the 13th man to be out to the first ball of a Test match and his highest Test score was... 200! :-) Dweller 11:19, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added some details and links above. The combination of lists at places like Cricinfo, HowStat and CricketArchive, and Google, make some questions easier than you might think. :) -- ALoan (Talk) 11:26, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
