i feel we should have only one thread i.e. 'stump the guru' because posting 10 questions and answering them takes too much of time. its better if we ask only one question and keep only one thread so more no. of people can play it.

Question 3 don't really make sense crown, eg. a team could score 1 run in the 2nd innings and win. Do you mean lowest total scored in a teams first innings by some chance ??? or lowest innings in either innings?
5-0 You Beauty!!!!!

Sorry, its the lowest total scored in either the 1st, 2nd, 3rd innings who have won the game. NOT the 4th.
