No Brycey boy. Read it more carefully !! It's all there !! :laugh:

Captain Charles Burgess Fry, who died at his home at Hampstead, London, on September 7, 1956, aged 84, was probably the greatest allrounder of his or any generation. He was a brilliant scholar and an accomplished performer in almost every branch of outdoor sport. Fry was the perfect amateur; he played games because he loved them and never for personal gain. He captained England in Test Matches, and the Mother Country never lost under his captaincy. He played Association Football for England against Ireland in 1901; he was at full-back for Southampton in the FA Cup Final of 1902;

In his career as a cricketer, he scored some 30,000 runs, averaging 50, in an era of natural wickets, mainly against bowlers of great speed or of varied and subtle spin and accuracy.

i don't get it, you said its all there but you hadn't even posted that stuff beforehand?:confused1

When you mentioned whether it had to anything do with Fry becoming King of Albania, I thought you had been reading the Cricinfo profile ( Had you ? :D ) . Hence I said it's all there , read it (cricinfo profile) carefully. :) :)

(9) Did Zimbabwe make this list in 2003 or 2004 (the last entry in the list) ?

The previous question should have read 'atleast one' :P

>> Zimbabwe .

(11) Did Zimbabwe do something, as opposed to something being done against Zimbabweans ?

Hope the question makes sense. For instance, is the record something like 'making the highest team score in test cricket' or is it 'being at the receiving end of the highest team score in test cricket'

Sorry for being vague. Terribly short of ideas :)

But your answer to Q2:

Q 2 Is it a Team record ?......YES
Sorry I should have clarified. It is a team record but in a different way. I said it was a team record so as not to misguide further for you to believe it is an individual record :p

It is a team record in the sense that it is an Australian or a South African record but not a team record in the way that it is a record of one set of 11 players !!
