Quiz@Over 3
I am posting this quiz for putting one Q - the last one. The ans will be put on 16th of Jan 2006, provided Calicut University don't postpone any exams:).
To the Q's :-
1. Simple one: Tell me, how many members were there in ICC before India became a full member of the ICC (then Imperial Cricket Conference).
2. This person was 27 years before he - or anyone else - realised that he was a uniquely gifted fast-medium bowler (he switched from off-breaks to fast in middle of a county match); 28 before he had the opportunity to demonstrate the fact; and 29 before he played a Test match. His father after a rather sorry episode in his only test (he dropped a decisive catch; then when the team needed 8 runs to win, scored a four and was bowled!) said, “Never mind, I've got a little kid at home who'll make up for it for me." Identify him?
3. His books include: The Appeal of Cricket; The Modern Game; My Spin on Cricket. Many feel that he has no peer in his analysis of cricket. Identify this Australia’s beloved son?
4. In the first recognized test match i.e. Australia v/s England, Australia had two brothers playing (debuting obviously). This cricketing family had 6 brothers all playing cricket; five from the family played for Australia and two from the family were captains. Name the two brothers?
5. Australia v/s West Indies, Brisbane, 1960-61 & Australia v/s India, Chennai, 1986-87. Connect the two epic matches (There are two answers to this; I don’t want just the obvious one, so give me both or the ‘less’ obvious one)?
6. Identify this person.
