Sorry to Cricketweb users for hogging up this space, but forgive me, but we'll shut this ****hole of a question for once and for all.

229 was the score that Bangladesh scored in their first win on home soil against Inida, which also happened to be their 100th ODI.

Bookie has ever-so eloquently identified the Important (with some help via MSN).
If anyone wants a go at the record (It's the easiest of the lot) do it now otherwise I'll post the answer.

Bookie · 18-01-2005, 12:20 AM

QUESTION (fairly easy with a bit of researching): What is the common factor between Andrew Zesers, Kim Barnett, and Pankaj Dharmani?

Clue (as for now), and you probably wont need any more: ODI's

SJS · 18-01-2005, 12:31 AM

All three have played only one ODI each.

SJS · 18-01-2005, 12:34 AM

Sorry. Thats incorrect.

Their highest scores are all made up og the digit 8

Dharmani 8

Zesers 8 not out

Barnett 88
