Richard johnson, by the way did I get the first question right

 

[andrew_nixon]

the answer is debashish mohanty of india.he did it for orissa in the Ranji trophy.

Hang on, are you suggesting that he's the only other bowler to take 10 wickets in a first class innings?

No I I think he is the latest to get 10 wickets in a innings

I was obviously talking to satish.

Satish: Are you suggesting that the only 3 people to take 10 wickets in a first class innings are Laker, Kumble and Mohanty?

 

[Bala]

Nope! I dont think there are only three people to do the 10 fors. Also Mohanty took 10 wickets playing for East Zone against South Zone in the Duleep trophy.

 

[andrew_nixon]

yes, it was for east zone against south zone as you say. whatever the opposition maybe, he is the only bowler after kumble and laker to achieve that in FC cricket..

A bowler taking all 10 wickets in a first class innings has happened 84 times!

This is twice in a row now you've asked a question without knowing the answer yourself!

If you ask another question, check to make sure you've got the answer right yourself.

If you ask another question, and you get the answer wrong yourself, I'll ban you from taking part in the cricket quiz.

In an attempt to lift the tense mood of this thread, here's an easy question (since the last question was wrong in the first place):

Q: 78 (1st inning) and 63 (2nd inning) are the figures of which female cricketer in her only test match?

Hint: Her's was also the first test 50 against this opposition.

 

[nightprowler10]

Wow, the question isn't that hard people. Just look at the hint, it should give you a clue on how to find the answer.

Vanessa Bowen

Correct. She played her only test for Sri Lanka against Pakistan in 1998, a test match that featured 22 debutants.

Your turn for the next question.
