This one was posed to me today, had about 25 guesses before I got it. See how you go without looking it up. (Answer will be posted Friday).
Which test batsman scored the most runs during the 1990's, with a total of 6407?

I will put my gorilla on the table and say it's the great West Indian left-handed batsman, Brian Lara.
Cheers!! :cool:

When can I collect Seindude?
I wouldn't mind a dollar for every wrong answer (without looking it up).
Here's another one it wasn't who was my first guess - Steve Waugh.

Yeah, Steve Waugh did cross my mind but I decided he'd had to have made at least 2,000 of his runs before 1990, so I ruled him out.
How about Mark Taylor or Mark Waugh?

My guess would have been Mark Taylor.
My educated guess would be Mark Atherton or Alex Stewart.
If I'm only allowed one guess than Atherton only cause he isn't a keeper.

It was Alec Stewart - but I'm guessing there's no way you came up with that without looking it up! :eek:

Alec Stewart... I would never have guessed that one!!
Just out of interest, does anyone know how many runs Brian Lara, Mark Taylor and Mark Waugh scored in the 1990's??? I would have thought it was pretty close between Taylor, Waugh, Lara and Stewart.
Cheers!! :cool:
