Ok ZCF following the great tradition of the Photo Quiz we are going to start a Stats quiz and general stats discussion page to add another dimension to the forum.
I think the scoring system can match the Photo Quiz. Questioners, please update the scores when a correct answer is given.
When asking a question, please be specific about your statistical category to avoid confusion.
Also freely use this thread to discuss stats issues more deeply around the quiz questions as well.
I am going to take the liberty of importing cricket_22001's question about Logan Cup runs to get us started.
1. "Mutizwa has played 83 FC matches, 77 are Logan Cup. One test, one Zim 'A' match plus 4 for the Zimbabwe XI in the Inter-continental Cup make up his career. These figures do not include the current fixture. He is one of 6 players to have scored over 4000 runs in the Logan Cup & is currently in 3rd spot. (Trivia: Does anyone know the other 5?)"

Mutumbami has 299 according to Cricinfo -- maybe you have other information? Could this be the reason you asked?
Without Richmond I have five, but am probably still missing someone.

That's them. I think half a point each for that one.
It will be a while till someone becomes the 8th. Mayavo is the closest current player.

Oh my, I looked at Richmond and Houghton and forgot to add their stumpings :roll:

Wasn't sure if you had thought of Houghton, thought you'd made that boo-boo with Richmond. Still enough for half a point.

Heath Streak has 10106 career runs, and 48 half-centuries/centuries, so he's one.

Correct! Welcome to zcf stats quiz Natalie. Our highest wicket taker ever also made 10,820 career runs with 2 hundreds and 35 fifties.
Natalie gets off the mark with half a point and grant gets half a point for Streak.
