Mr. Wicket Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Is it a feat that involves scoring centuries in consecutive test innings abroad? Link to comment
Donny Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 A bit of research wouldn't go astray, Bunny. If you checked the first name on the list (Turner), you'd see his first series, against the Windies, was in NZ. Link to comment
Donny Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Not to do with centuries, Salil. Link to comment
bunny Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Has it anything to do with captaincy? Link to comment
bunny Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 All of them have scored in the 90s, but I guess most batsmen must have :( Link to comment

Doosra Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Most runs in a calendar year. Link to comment
Doosra Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 No. it is true though - each has been the highest run scorer in a calendar year. Link to comment
Donny Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Thanks. I was unaware of that. However, it's not why I chose those eleven batsmen. Link to comment
Donny Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 It's not what they did do but what they didn't. :regular_smile: What do these batsmen have in common ? Glenn Turner Alec Stewart Richie Richardson David Gower Allan Border Ken Barrington AB de Villiers Aravinda de Silva Clive Lloyd Herbie Taylor Rahul Dravid Link to comment
hassan_113 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Didn't score a hundred at Lord's for their country in tests?!!! Wild guess Link to comment
Donny Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 David Gower scored at least 2 centuries there. Hasan, there's no need to wild guess. You have access to the internet. :regular_smile: Link to comment
