Fuck you all this is my answer:

Cotar Ramaswami represented India in the Davis Cup in 1922 and in 1936 made his test debut for India aged 40. He is also one of only two test cricketers to play Davis Cup tennis. The other is Ralph Legall who played test cricket for the West Indies and represented Trinidad in the Davis Cup.

I'll give this one to Bookie because he's a funny guy and I'm in a good mood.

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

Well I certainly killed off this thread. Sorry DRAGONZ.

 

[bJ_Bhoy 87]

Well if Bookie gave us another question...

 

[Bookie]

In the 80s, if Sterlo passed the ball to Bert, who dummied to the Zip Zip Man and then offloaded to the Bear, who in turn fed the ball on to the Guru, who passed to Mr Pepetual Motion, what players, and in what order, would have been involved?

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

Off the top of my head:

Sterlo = Peter Sterling
Guru = Eric Grothe
Mr Perpetual Motion = Ray Price.

Sterlo = Peter Sterling
Bert = None other than Brett Kenny!
Zip Zip Man = Steve Ella
The Bear = *Is stumped*
The Guru = Eric Grothe
Mr Perpetual Motion = Ray Price

OK, so I did two better than Brogan.

But I have no idea who The Bear is. It's probably one of the front rowers .. Joe Bugden or something (or is he a boxer?! Sterling was talking about them before the Manly match in Week 1 of Finals) .. the two of them were supposedly nothing special but they formed an awesome partnership and became known as "The Bookends".

I mean, why would a person in the backline be called "The Bear"?

So I have 5 out of 6. If anyone knows who the frontrowers forming "The Bookends" partnership are (Joe Bugden?), I reckon guessing them wouldn't be so bad ..

 

[Bookie]

the bookends were geoff budgen and terry leadbeater. was the hooker called bookie? HAHAHAHAHAHA. not.

come on, guess who the bear is.

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

LIES, you just copied me for three and googled the other two.

Yes, Joe Bugden was a boxer.
As for the Bear i'm sure the eels had a frontrower, and he was a bigass mutherfucka.

 

[LMF^^]

Quite a few front rowerz are bigass muhfuckerz.

 

[Bookie]

The Bear = Bob O'Reilly

Anyway, heres an easy one, please dont google it up, Itrust you wont

Which three players have the current highest test batting average, and in which order?

 

[DRAGONZ]

Is this current players? Because 'current highest batting average' doesn't mean that someone like W.G. Grace couldn't still be on the list ...

I presume they are probably people who have only played a few Tests and scored well, so they own the averages.

Which means Bradman's 99.94 / 99.96 probably won't feature.

I have no idea. :-D

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

Even though I don't quite understand the question, I'll say:
The Don
Garfield Sobers
Graeme Pollock

 

[Bookie]

I tried to edit it earlier. But I meant Which three current players are the highest on the batting average lists

 

[s1n1Ster]

Do players who've played less then 20 tests count?

 

[Bookie]

no .

please dont use crcinfo for this one. its easy enough.

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

Tendulkar would have to be one.
Ummmmmm, maybe Ponting.
And i'll say Kallis.

PS: Gilly had a 60 ave. for a while which was farking high relatively, but I don't think its that high anymore.

 

[Bookie]

You got two correct Brianna.

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

I'm happy with that effort.

 

[Bookie]

well then you dont get to make the next question. name the three correct players.

 

[RanyofuKenyan?]

I don't want the next question, too much responsibility.
