Indus_Army Posted March 17, 2009 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 All the above batsmen went though a minimum of 50 consecutive innings without scoring a duck. David Gower's patch lasted a whopping 124 innings :omg: Richie Richardson's streak ended tantalizingly on 99. Link to comment
