Archie Mac's Reverse Cricket Trivia in OT

[JASON]

Here's another interesting Cricket Trivia game. Its in a different format. The first person posts a name or number and the next poster must then post a question to which the previous post would be an answer to.
Here's an example -

Poster 1 - Don Bradman

Poster 2 - Who has the highest Batting average for any cricketer to have played over 20 Test Innings ? or

Who has the record for Most centuries in consecutive Test Matches? or

Who scored the fastest double Century in Test cricket history ?
etc.

Then anyone can post next . There's no need to wait for previous poster to come back and post again. But only one question (or in this case one answer can be alive at any time ).

For instance after the above - Poster 3 posts - "26"

Poster 4 - What is the lowest Team score in Test Cricket ?

I hope everyone in OT will participate in this game.

Other rule-
You cannot ask futuristic or potential type or future prediction type questions, Only based on current records !!

Not even questions on opinions or vaguaries. Just simple easy trivia please !

We want greater participation.

Example of an unacceptable futuristic prediction type question-

What's the minimum score required to establish a new one day individual batting record ??

Also its upto you who participate in this game to make it sensible and not nonsensical !

Eg- Kapil Dev
Which former international cricketers name begins in "K" and ends in "apil Dev"?

It doesn't take much to make a sensible question like- Who Captained India to win a World Cup? or who was India's leading wicket taker in Tests until recently overtaken by Kumble ?
