Congratulations!

You have successfully completed the Quiz. Your Score is 17 out of 20.

Brilliant. All the basics of a Ponting or Dravid with the magic of Lara for the really tough ones. Man of the match.

Gutted for Alec Bedser about his brother, read a piece on them on cricinfo a while ago and it brought a tear to my eye that they still did everything together right up to the day Eric died. It would make a great film.

Hi Matt,

Congratulations!

You have successfully completed the Quiz. Your Score is 18 out of 20.
