A friend of mine has asked this question. Anyone knows? Name the Cricketer who scored more runs than the whole opposition team could both in the first and second innings of a Test Match ?

len hutton against australia in oval 1938
There Hutton did not bat a second time. The condition is that the batsman batter twice and each time outscored the opposition.

Same in that match. Hayden did not bat a second time.
So, what the question is? Batsman's first innings score =greater than opposition's first inning score AND batsman's second inning score is greater than opposition's second inning score? But think about it, if one batsman will make more than the first innings score of the opposition, why will he need to bat again? I think you are not understanding the question. The answer is Matt Hayden: http://ind.cricinfo.com/link_to_database/ARCHIVE/2002-03/AUS_IN_PAK/SCORECARDS/AUS_PAK_T2_11-15OCT2002.html

I also thought the same Chandan, but the question is quite clear and thanks to Shwetabh, we have the answer now as well. Cricket can get strange sometimes.
