Good to have you aboard cricketfan.
Clue #3
I am a slow left-arm orthodox bowler and in 1932, I took all ten wickets in an innings of a first class match while conceding just 10 runs in 19.4 overs (6-ball overs) including 16 maidens and a hattrick. Thus, I hold the world record for the fewest number of runs conceded by a bowler taking all 10 wickets in an innings.

When you win the toss - bat.
If you are in doubt, think about it - then bat. If you have very big doubts, consult a colleague - then bat. |

He either wants to get double points or has short term memory loss (Only kidding Pieterson Fan, also I hope that no one takes offense to that)! Either way it was a clever plan!
