He was the first Australian to get the Test Double of 1000 runs and 100 Test wickets, and to date remains the only Australian with 10,000 runs and 1000 wickets in first class cricket. Who is he ?

How many grounds have become test venues since 1950? (Name them)

I am guessing it has something to do with most consecutive zeroes - Martin has nine in Tests (including two not outs :thumbsup:). Not sure who holds FC record though.
