Rahul Khan Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Q: Yusuf Pathan played alongside Irfan Pathan in the recent World Twenty20 final. Are they the first brothers to play together in Twenty20 games? A: Rather surprisingly, given the short history of Twenty20 internationals, there have already been six sets of brothers who have appeared in the same game - and five of them were on show at the recent World Twenty20 championships. Apart from the Pathans of India, there was Brendon and Nathan McCullum of New Zealand, Albie and Morne Morkel of South Africa, and two pairs from Kenya: Collins and David Obuya, and - a difficult one to spot from the scorecard - Nehemiah Odhiambo and Lameck Onyango. The other pair to play were the identical twins Hamish and James Marshall of New Zealand. Link to comment

bharat297 Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I have a feeling that the Marshall brothers played together in a T20 game for New Zealand before this, but I am not sure. Link to comment
