Strange records

[andmark]

I have been thinking about strange cricket records.I thought of the player who has most runs with out a century. Which is Shane Warne.Any other records you think should go on this topic feel free to post in.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Waqar Younis has the most runs without a 50.

 

[shortpitched713]

How about most Test runs without a first-class wicket? Most of the great batsmen have been at least decent part-timers.

 

[cameeel]

Warne has the record for most Test runs without a century.

11 50's and 0 100's from 3018 test runs.

Stephen Fleming - 6593 runs, 17 overs for 129.

Fleming has an ODI wicket.

 

[marc71178]

ODI's aren't first class though.

Wasim Akram - most MOTM awards - 17, after Wasim comes Kallis, Murali & Warne, all with 16, then Ambrose, S Waugh & Ponting with 14.

Strangely enough, Tendulkar only has 10

Sorta blows the idea out of the Water that bowlers don't received enough recognition in MOTM awards doesn't it?

note. Test Matches only

Yep.

 

[Johnners]

Of the youngest players to ever score a century in test match cricket, the 11 youngest are ALL from the Sub-Continent.

ODI's aren't first class though.

I know, just thought I would point it out.

Geraint Jones has gone 51 test innings without scoring a duck.

well here's two :

1. Who on his test debut batting at No XI for his country was his country's highest scorer in the innings ?

2.He played for the rebel Windies against South Africa in the 80's and then played for England against the official Windies

(hint Both were in the 80's)

W.G Grace once hitted a ball 36 miles.

[andmark]

I read it a Ashes magasine.

 

[mohammad16]

?

Afridi couldnt hit a golf ball that far

 

[silentstriker]

No chance chance he hit it even a mile, let alone 36 miles.

 

[Dravid]

If it was hit 36 miles, I doubt it was found, thus resulting in false information.

Monte Lynch wasn't it?

I was actually wondering if anyone had taking more wickets then Giles with an average of over 40. I searched around and Ravi Shastris done it apparently, is there anyone else, whose taking more then 151 with such an average, erm, average?

Also maybe Grace hit it onto a train or summat.
