Trivia question

[JUBJUB]

What was the unusual thing about Ganguly's dismissal in the 2nd innings ?

 

[Cupido13]

This is probably not the correct answer, but, I dare say it was part of a record number of times a batsman has been out playing the ball back onto his stumps!

 

[JUBJUB]

Nope.

Take a look at what the other 19 Indian wickets have in common.
This answer was refered to on the ABC after the 1st innings.

 

[Cupido13]

All caught?

 

[beckybiglands]

the ABC trivia drives me crazy...
what do these three bowlers have in common... oh it's not that they are bowlers, or from the same country, or all have taken over 200 wickets...

- Bracken's first bowled in tests?
- wasn't the shot of a captain trying to save a test?
- it proved the hit on the head actually did cause some damage?
- it was a noball?
- he scored 37 in the 1st and 73 in the 2nd?

i give up.

 

[JUBJUB]

I'll give the answer if a few minutes if nobody gets it.

Perhaps people who are 3 hours behind the real world will get it [thats the best hint I'll give ].

Something to do with Perth. I know MacGill is born in Perth and Williams is playing over there now, can't see any connection with Lee over there though. I am stumped.

Think its the first time in the series that a top 6 Indian has had his stumps rattled

 

[red+black]

first wicket that wasn't bowled or caught by a player born in WA?

Close
It was the only wicket that didn't involve a current or former Western Warrior.

The current of former WW are Williams,Martyn,Langer,Katich,Gilchrist and MacGill.

Someone needs to hold up the Pura Cup ladder from the bottom.
