Q32 - Ricky Ponting became the (future) Australian captainBonus Q19 - Virender Sehwag

[The Arka Teks]

Nope. Remember it WORLD CUP themed.Bonus question is correct though.

[lightning18]

Q32 - Would this answer happen to be that Ricky Pointing has gone 8 years without a single World Cup defeat as captain prior to this year's World Cup that has just finished. Played 22 games in charge, Won 22.

[The Arka Teks]

Nope. Remember, Mark Taylor and Steve Waugh have done this too.

[The Arka Teks]

Wow this is actually taking longer than I expected. Hint: Ricky did it in the World Cup, but Steve did it in the 2003 Sydney Ashes Test, and Taylor did it in the 1997 Ashes Series in the first test at Edgbaston.

As you say, this is taking longer than expected...Would it happen to be that Ricky Pointing became the third Aussie captain in succession to save his career with a "gritty back-to-the-wall" century.You sure have a good memory if you can remember that far back.

I'm going to post more questions up now since that the cricket season is almost starting again.

Ajantha Mendis took 6 wickets for I think 16 runs in T20 the other day .....

(medium)

[Channel28]

Nathan Lyon and Trent Copeland are the n00bsI THINK the answer would be fairly simple .....Nathan Lyon balled 5 out for 35ish or so, which 5 outs in a DEBUT game is CRICKET HISTORY worthy I would guess!

[The Arka Teks]

You are correct about those two debuting, BUT you've fallen into the trap. Whilst getting a 5 wicket haul is highly commendable for his first match, that is not the answer. Try again.
