[chicane]

Orangepitch is the culprit - get him!

 

[deeps]

hehhe, yup! he asked a 2nd question when there was one there alreadY!!1 some1 grab hiM! hehe, now it's Gaijin-san's turn

 

[Gaijin-san]

It's ok, I haven't got a question anyway, plus I answered an 'unofficial' question. So Shankar, you're up

And Deeps, I said stubs and were. I think the plural was alluded to. :P

 

[deeps]

Gaijin-san, it is your turn..although there were 2 questions... u answered the1st one..the 2nd was the unofficial one...so plz come up with a question

 

[Gaijin-san]

Alright, I'll go right out:

This man played 18 first class matches for South Australia, but never played a test, although he came close. Who is it?

 

[krkode]

Me?

 

[Prince EWS]

Manjural Islam.

 

[Gaijin-san]

Try a little harder.

 

[Sudeep]

Neil Johnson?

A wild guess...

 

[Prince EWS]

Johnson has played several tests.

 

[Sudeep]

Not for South Africa.

But as I said, it was just a wild guess.

Will do some research and try to come up with the answer.

 

[blackcapsrule]

What Australian team does John Davison play for? My mind has gone completly dead to forget that.

 

[Prince EWS]

Alright, I'll go right out:

This man played 18 first class matches for South Australia, but never played a test, although he came close. Who is it?

I dont see what that has to so with South Africa.

And Davison plays for South Australia.

 

[Sudeep]

Hahaha... And I mis-read it for South Africa.

Sorry.
