New Cricket Trivia - 'SJS format'

I'll post my question and you lot can do your question if you complain enough :P

Q) How did "Zak" get a team 1000 runs in a year with out playing for that team?

International Regular
My dying wish was to be buried a cricket pitch away from my old team-mate.
The request was duly honoured, but some weeks later it was found that I had been buried 27 yards away from my team-mate, rather than 22 yards.
When the error was reported to the county secretary there was great consternation. Exhumation was even considered, until the secretary himself solved the problem by declaring, 'It's all right - he always took a five-yard run up'.

Who am I and who is the team-mate ?

This is obviously a trick question and at this time of the night my brain is not keen to think too much.

To get 1000 runs. would Zak have been given it ? :unsure: 8-) :p (that sounds very silly !!) (I can't figure this one !)

All members of the forum are encouraged to have a crack at this trick question !!

There's obviously a catch in the wording of this question !! All attempts are welcome ! :p :p

As you lot aren't doing too well:

Hint 1

He didn't play against the team either.

It is an abstract question...think carefully.
