Well, you seem to be struggling at this one, so I'll reveal part of the answer.

The English county side that played was Middlesex.

Now think of someone who is well known for playing for Middlesex and another team at the same time.

Andrew Strauss or Ed Joyce

No idea what you're on about here.

Here is the question, just to remind people.

When and where was the first ever Day/Night cricket match held, and what were the two teams?

Here is the information I have given so far.

One player is very well known for playing for both of these teams AT THE SAME TIME!

One of the teams is Middlesex. The other team is also English, and is not the national team or another county side.

So if you can think of a VERY famous Middlesex player who also played for another team, AT THE SAME TIME, you should get the other team, and narrow down the possibilities for the venue and for the year.

3 more guesses and I'll give you another clue.

Umm...Ian Botham?

Never played for Middlesex.

Anyway here's a clue.

The player in question has a first name beginning with D, and a surname beginning with C. He is an incredibly famous player, well known for playing for Middlesex and another team, at the same time.

A reminder of the question as it stands.

Middlesex played the first Day/Night cricket match. Who where their opponents, where was it played and in what year?
