[Jamee999]

First century in each century?

 

[SJS]

That's something more appropriate for OFF TOPIC isn't it ? In fact I saw a thread started by SJS in Off Topic along those lines ?

I have no problem continuing with that question, but then hereafter, Let no man and his Dog preach to others on quality of Posts !!

1) When I posted on quality of threads I was talking aboult the inapropriate language etc and not that they were off topic.

2) If you felt it was off topic (my question) you should have said so. I would have posted another one. Yes I agree my question was off topic, sort of but why shouldnt I be allowed to post another one. But I promise you that question would have been fun too.

3) There is a tendency by some to pretend to own certain threads. I think thats not right. It isnt the first time that such a thing has happened. There is an attitude problem here.

First clue: It was achieved once in the 19th century, then not achieved for over 100 years, but has been achieved twice relatively recently.

Also don't get too hung up on timeframes; the "timeframe" of this achievement is peculiar to cricket!

 

[BoyBrumby]

Nobody?

Second clue: It's a test match achievement.
