LOL. Taking of women. In a match just after scoring his 501 (or was it the 375? World record, that much I am sure of) Lara played an exhibition match against a team which included women. Out - bowled for a first ball duck, by a woman. Don't recollect the name. She was an amateur.

Bucknor - The only one to have officiated both as a cricket umpire and a Football refree (85-92)

he made his debut in a match where the scoreline read 5-0, but can't recall which teams were playing there !!
