Black Caps v Pakistan

@Hooroo said in Black Caps v Pakistan:

How many people have a 200 and a 10wb? Gillespie & Kallis? Sobers?

The list might be smaller than we think. Neither Sobers, Kallis or Gillespie had a 10 wb.

Wow!

Astle?

It might not qualify as a list.

Is there really only one?

Well work today is going to suck without the cricket commentary in the background!

Doesn't the Aussie v India test start today at the SCG?

You're probably right, but yea, nah.
I'll probably check in on the score from time to time, but that's about the limit of my interest in games that the BC's aren't playing.

I love Aussie cricket. It filled a hole between the 80's and the Hesson/McCullum era

I quite like this India team. Bumrah is a gun and Ashwin is a master tactician with the ball.

@Hooroo Sadly, Nathan was restricted from bowling too many of his dangerous medium pacers.

@Snowy There could be others but none of usual suspects for all-rounders accomplished this feat.

@gt12 I only looked at the pace bowlers so was surprised that one of Imran, Kapil Dev, Flintoff or Stokes didn't do it.

Wasim Akram is in the 200/10 club too

Jason Holder does, Stokes doesn't but might get a 10fer yet.

Snap.

[Cyclops]

So we're at three right? Shakib, Holder Botham. Which is the same as 100/10 in the same match (Botham, Shakib and Imran Khan). Dunno which is the tougher achievement.

[Snowy]

Well at least we have something that is a list now, albeit small.

[Cyclops]

Oh and Akram, so 4 for the 200/10 career double.

Border!

I'm pretty sure that is it - 6 players to have achieved it.

@gt12 Allan Border - remarkable. 1989, 2 of the top three innings bowling were in the same game- 39 wickets at 39, and get a 10fer against a great batting lineup is just remarkable.

It's up there with Gillespie burglaring a 200 as a nightwatchman.

@gt12 Holy shit, Mankad. One of the most famous names in cricket (for different reasons).

Unfairly maligned I think, nothing wrong with a mankad in my book. Up to the non striker to be timing his backing up properly.
