Sledger,this is a "Stump the Guru" posting, where people answer
questions,and then get a turn to ask a question yourself.So if u don't
answer the question,keep your opinion to yourself.

Kruppel, hows your hand? I understand you broke it in a fight, and your housemate before the previous one had to save you?

He almost makes a good point here. If you want to have a slanging match with each other, fine, but conduct it in private - PMs, or preferably MSN or down the pub.
Sounds like another one that could be a PM. Unless of course, this is the next entry in 'Stump The Guru' in which case I'd guess his hand his okay as he's clearly able to type. No idea about the housemate though. Edited by -JP- |

i don't know any good question so i'm just going to ask this one; out of all the ODI matches australia has played how many ODI matches have been tied (scores) and how many of their matches have been no results?
sorry if the question is too easy.  Edited by saadadvanced7 |

Well, Saad, it looks as though it's just you and me, just for now. My information is that Australia's overall ODI performance is as follows:
Anyone have any different ideas?

OK, I know this really happened, because I trust the bloke who told me! The striker skies the ball, and the batsmen start running. They haven't crossed on the second run, when the ball comes down a few feet in front of the wicket and spins back, breaking the wicket. Is the striker out, or the non-striker? How is he out, and how many runs are scored?

If they have crossed for one run, and as long as no fielder has touched
the ball, no one is out, and it is one run to the batsman that hit the
ball.

the non-striker is out because the first run had already hapened and they hadn't crossed for the second run. one run is scored.
i hope i'm right

Swerve , if the wicket broken was that at the striker's end then I'd say he was out bowled and no runs are scored. If the wicket broken was the nonstrikers then to effect a run out a fielder will have to place the ball to a stump and lift it out - the batting side would then score a single. |

Sledger, that's 200% correct! I was only looking for the case where the striker's wicket is broken, and you're absolutely right there, but you're also right for the case where the non-striker's wicket is broken. Congratulations!

OK, this one might take a bit of getting: Before his appearance in the 5th Test against Australia, Paul Collingwood had taken the same number of wickets for the same amount of runs as which other centrally contracted England player? |

JP, I have the answer. Before the 5th test against Australia, Paul Collingwood had taken 0 wickets for 37 runs. Graham Thorpe possesses 0 wickets for 37 runs. |

JH Kallis is the only player in history to have 8000 runs, 200 wickets and 100 catches in BOTH forms of the game. Only Sobers (tests) and Jayasuriya (one dayers) have achieved half that feat.

And seeing as I know I'm right, I will Play Stump the Guru next. This is a very tough question and I'd like to see if anyone can get it. At one point in time Jacques Kallis and Ricky Ponting had a difference of 1 run between them in test batting, with almost identical averages. Who can tell me which one was leading by 1 run, how many runs he had and how many matches the pair had played at that time. Just so you know, Kallis is currently leading by 11 runs. |

Ponting was leading by one run (6657 to 6656) in 2004/5 and they'd both played 85 games. |
