New Cricket Trivia - 'SJS format'

[JASON]

Would it be dead ball because the equipment of the batsman broke before being caught?

I said no before, because the decision given then {at the Test in 1921} was 'out caught' .[Batsman A.Ducat (England) bowler - EA McDonald]

I guess now it would be deemed dead. So you are correct.

[JASON]

Can we revert to this one or do you have any question in mind ?
(Will take your point on board - re-future questions)

Question

A unique Test Match !

[willb88]

I suppose Mark u shud ask the question then as you guessed it first.

[willb88]

That's a bit vague isn't it, there could be thousands of answers for that. Like players to play one test match, therefore unique. Test Mtach venues to only hold one test match etc etc, how 'bout a clue Jason

[Neil Pickup]

What would happen if the batsman hit the ball back to the bowler from his crease, the bowler threw the ball back to the stumps and the batsmen jumped out of the way and whilst he was in the air the ball hit the stumps,, would he be out or not out?

(A general cricket question, that actually needs cricket knowledge to answer rather than being able to search the internet.)

Happened in an East Devon U13 game last summer (except it was mid-wicket, not the bowler, and at the striker's end). Cue confused square-leg umpire (me) - but I did get it right in the end!

If you follow this format you will find the original question starts vague . Its upto the others to figure out the answer ,over 20 questions for which the questioner can answer yes or no . (Believe me it always starts vague and by asking the right question you can always figure out the answer in due course )

To make things easy, I will give a Hint right away !!

Question

A unique Test Match !

Free George Davis? (The abanonded England-Australia Test of 1973 (?) followed a defaced pitch)

Q 1 was it the abandoned Test Match of 1973 (due to defaced pitch by campaigners wanting George Davis freed) ? No

I think there was only one test with 4-ball overs..
