Opening post

Dave never scored 150 (His highest being 142 in the unforgettable Kiwi match at world cup) and he never scored 4 ODI centuries because he has hit only 1 in ODIs. Strange facts from you if we consider you are a former player

dave houghton had a mid 40s test average when he was about 40 yrs old.

look through old scorecards of ODI's and whos the one that continually gets 100+?

david houghton.

like the 87' world cup when he got 150 or when he made 4 ODI centuries in 92'.

Houghton is still a class apart whether he scored 1 or 4 tons in ODI's.

A quality player I had the pleasure to watch on more than one occassion.

Not Andy Roberts or Mikey Holding pace but, IIRC, in his day he was pretty brisk. More RFM than RMF IMHO (excuse acronyms :D)

Sound about right. IIRC he was the quickest bowler we had at the time and his defection to pay in SA was a real shame. He would have been a big asset in the early test days.
