This week we take a look at fast scoring records in Tests.

Back in September, Will Quinn pointed how lucky we are to be enjoying a very competitive era in cricket history – but is it really the most competitive ever?

A mixed bag this week, focussing mainly on wicketkeepers and ODI century makers.

This week we look at India’s best debutants, the teams that drew (and those that didn’t), the changing of hands of Sri Lanka’s top score, and more.

This week we look at top international batting performances.

Heroes come in many shapes and sizes, but few are as large as Colin Milburn, who burned bright but for too short a time. Dave Wilson celebrates his short but entertaining life.

If there is a blemish on his amazing record it is the absence of a significant innings on one of those “sticky dogs” of old – so wrote Wisden about Don Bradman as one of the Five Cricketer’s of the Century. Here we see how true that was.

This week we concentrate on that elusive bowling achievement, the international hat-trick.

When Michael Hussey shot out of the blocks his performances were described as “Bradmanesque”, but did he really deserve that accolade? Here we look at whether anyone ever has.

This week we look at the first cricketing knight, the only keepet to stump The Don and those who just missed out on a debut century.
