three times? one by Javed Miandad and now Imzimam...not sure about the other one.

Asif Mujtaba hit Steve Waugh for a six off the last ball to tie a match. Does that count or is it just wins that are being considered?
NOT counting that tie, Pakistan have done it 5 times now.
If I am right, again, someone else ask a question. Sorry to mess the format up but right now I dont have the time to research interesting questions.

Whoever wants can rep I think. I just rep if a correct answer has been given. It's your choice. Sometimes I get lazy and forget to rep. And now the answer:

Hey Sohum, hope you dont mind, I just thought of a question after watching Afridi's blitz.

Many batsmen have scored a hundred in ODIs in less than 100 balls. One batsman in particular did it three times before anyone else had ever done it even once. If you look at the centuries chronologically of people who have scored ODI hundreds in less than 100 balls, he has the first three places. Who was he?

Sohum you can ask a question after this answer.

 

[sachinisgod]

Zaheer Abbas - all in 1982...twice against India and once earlier in the year against SL...

Okay here's a question (I found some old cricket book). Answer this after shahid confirms the previous answer. I dunno how hard it is, I had no idea. :

Which Australian's score of 67 in a Test exceeded both the first innings and second innings totals of the opposition? Who was the opposition and what were the scores.

For my reference: 45

 

[ravigoteti]

ok..here's the answer
player, WA Brown. New Zealand was opposition and scores were 42 and 54 respectively...

 

[brad352]

Bill Brown, vs NZ

Edit: Beaten

 

[sohum]

Correct, and by a minute! Gee, how did you find this?

 

[brad352]

Correct, and by a minute! Gee, how did you find this?

here (shows all Australian wins)

Simple, scroll down until you see 2 consecutive team innings with a score of less than 67, click the scorecard and look for a score of 67, if there isn't one repeat the process again

 

[sohum]

Hmm very smart. I was just a little worried that you knew the answer already.
