Cricket Trivia and Discussions.. - 22-01-2004, 03:19 AM

Hope all crick fans will keep this thread alive for long...
My questions (starting with some sitters..)
1)Who was the first batsman given run out by the third umpire??

2)Who was the only player to die on the cricket field???

3)Which players nickname is jammy???

4)What Australian cricketer attempted to use an aluminium bat during a test match in 1979?

5)During the 2000 tour of New Zealand, the Australian team caused quite a stir when they were spotted buying what?

6)During a cricket match, how many pieces of wood are there in the ground?

Waiting for the answers...

Raman Lamba, infact walked off the cricket field. It was only after he spat blood that he suffered concussion and passed out, never to revive.

Cool...
The public here knows something about cricket....
Yaar got really dissapointed by Indias performance...
Giving away a sixer in the last over is really pathetic...
And Agarkars bowling was really bad...
Kudos for Yuvi And Laxman and Dada..
I feel India could have won the match ...
When is the next match btw?? Again with the minnow Zimbabwians??
When will Sachin play again...I think this series he has been outplayed by other players and now no more he stands as the maestro...Rahul ,Laxman Ponting Hayden are at par with him..
May be he is just another good player...
WHat do you all think??

Hey there is a question even i am not sure of...

If every batsman in an innings got out first ball, what should be the number of the batsman shown not out?

SOme more ...
He was the only captain in the '99 world cup to wear a no.5 jersey Who is he?

Which Indian plyer is nicknamed Jumbo??

Who was the first player to score 20 centuries in One-Day Internationals?


What caused the cricket law-makers to decide that two fielders maximum would be allowed behind square leg on the on-side?
