Results of Sursuri Cricket Quiz 2

The second Sursuri Cricket Quiz is now over.

Here's the final list of quizzers, along with their scores.

1) The list, by Name, Score, Location, Age, Profession.

2) The complete grid of all valid responses.

Let's come to our Sursuri question which was:

“I think mine is the sort of record that won’t be bettered.” — Some good natured humor by a former cricketer, obviously indicating towards a peculiar – and somewhat unwanted – achievement.

Who is he and what is this achievement?

And here are some of the common responses by our quizzers:

Malcolm Nash on being hit for six sixes in an over.

Courtney Walsh/Danny Morrison/Glenn McGrath/Bhagwat Chandrasekhar on scoring all those ducks in Test cricket.

Sunil Gavaskar on his infamous 36 not out.

Chetan Sharma on being hit for the last-ball six.

The answer, of course, was Graham Gooch who played in three World Cup finals for England, losing each time.

Not many got that one right — so kudos to everyone who did.

The second quiz is now closed. But our next quiz, a French Open special, is on it's way soon.
