Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

Was anyone else listening to tms yday. Zaltzman had a question, before root, Brook and smith right now, when was the last time England had 3 players in an xi who all averaged 50+.
Did anyone hear the answer or happen to know?
My random guess was trott, root ballance but I'm sure that is wrong.

Plenty of times they've had 3+ bowlers averaging over 50, unlikely batsmen though

When Root hit 50+, Trott had dipped below

Maybe its some combination of Root/Ballance and a debutant who hit 50 early on. Could even be someone like Bresnan.

The criteria was they had to have 1000 runs. I think if must be back in the day when barrington was around
