The Interesting Scorecard Thread

[Ljp86]

Couldn't find a thread on the current Champions tournament, but Jon Hastings had an absolute shocker this week. In his only over he bowled 12 wides and a no ball, as Pakistan rolled us by 10 wickets. He bowled 18 balls and didn't even complete an over.

not exactly a scorecard but this bloke has had a good innings.

New South Wales v Tasmania last Tuesday.

https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/one-day-cup-aus-2025-26-1495275/new-south-wales-vs-tasmania-1495310/full-scorecard

As far as I can tell, the 9th wicket partnership of 101 between Hope & Kuhnemann is only the third occasion that two Aussies have put on 100 for the 9th wicket in List A cricket, and the first ever time for two Aussies in Australia.

The other two occasions were overseas (see 146* & 115 partnerships on list below), making this partnership (obviously) a record for both Tassie and the domestic one-day competition overall.

It is not the first time it has happened in Australia though, as Mathews and Malinga put on 132 for Sri Lanka against Australia at the MCG.

An interesting occurrence in this recent CC Div 2 match, believed to equal the f-c record.

Can anyone spot it?

It's to do with the partnerships.

The first ten partnerships of the match contained five centuries? That’s all I’ve got.

 

[sherb]

The first ten partnerships of the match contained five centuries? That’s all I’ve got.

It's actually the one batsman, in this case Du Plooy, being involved in four separate century partnerships in the one innings.
127 - 3rd wicket, with Hollman
121 - 5th wicket, with Geddes
116 - 6th wicket, with Cracknell
179 - 8th wicket, with Morgan

This has actually happened a number of times in f-c cricket, but so far no instances of more than 4 century partnerships involving the same player has been found.

The last known instance in Australia was 2006, involving Tim Paine:

None of this is my work by the way, I'm getting the info from the ACSH (Assoc of Cricket Statisticians and Historians) discussion forum.

This would only interest a nerd like me, but South Africa has had two players called Obus Pienaar and Cobus Pienaar whose careers overlapped for at least five years in the 2010s. This is one of the few occasions, possibly the only occasion I cba to check, that both players took the field together.

58 years ago today, the most recent instance of a bowler taking all 10 wickets in a Shield innings.

And this was no average Victorian side either, 6 of the top 7 played Test cricket (and the 7th was 12th man in a Test).

Ian Brayshaw was a fine all-rounder, who wouldn't have been out of place in national colours.

Decent writer too, he self published a bit of a bodice ripper a few years ago. A bit ot but I saw Kelvin Templeton's first novel was launched last week.

He wrote a number of cricket books from memory, I also remember him as being a very good special comments man on ABC radio's cricket coverage after he retired.

Averaged 42 over his career in the 90s. Back then it was a standard days shield batting, these days he'd be getting talked up for national selection.

Tony Lock bowled in the same innings Brayshaw took his 10, in echoes of Manchester 1956 which is a remarkable scorecard but not really interesting enough to post here.

This is another rare instance of a 9 for and a 10 for in the same match though:

Arunachal Pradesh are miles behind everyone else sadly, even in the plate league.

The promoted team from the plate league ends up in the elite comp which is contested by most of the teams, and the gulf in class is enough that the promoted team ends up getting relegated.

There was a demonstration of this in that match between elite group H winner jharkhand and the plate league winner nagaland for a quarter final spot which was a delight for run-lovers like me but a farce to any sort of cricket fan. Ranjis first innings lead rule is the biggest crock of shit in first class cricket.

2 wickets.

You only get 2 wickets to play with.
