Fazeer is a human encyclopedia. Growing up, he was always on the radio calling FC matches. His voice is iconic. If Tony Cozier was great on TV broadcast...Fazeer was the equivalent on the radio.

It was on a sports max production where they were choosing an AT XI that was just awful. He was the voice of wisdom afterwards.

Tony was so incredibly iconic, but Faz is as close as there's been there after.

And Murali, both are very highly rated by the panelists for the exercise as well, making the final XI for them.

 

[Thala_0710]

4 players have scored 500+ runs in a series without scoring a century

5 Test series
Hill 521 @ 52.10 4 fifties
Hunte 550 @ 61.11 6 fifties

6 test series
Atherton 553 @ 46.08 6 fifties
Thorpe 506 @ 42.16 5 fifties

Notably, Thorpe had 2 ducks, Hill had 1. And Hunte did not even score a 90, with his highest score being 89

Cummins holds the record for most wickets in a series without a 5’fer, with 29 @ 19.62 in the 2019 Ashes. 8 others have taken 25+ in a series without a 5’fer, Garner doing it thrice.

Taking 25+ wkts in a series thrice without taking a 5fer is some stat
