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?)"

It has been a rough start to the season for Shingi, but congrats on 300 FC wickets! Not too many Zim seamers have passed that milestone.

Not many Zimbos who have achieved that double--and probably not in one match :D
I'm thinking:
K. Curran
Streak
P. Strang
Price
Cremer
Shingi
Have I forgotten someone?

Sure. I can't think of anyone else at this moment but maybe someone else can :)

Thinking a bit harder: Does Paddy Clift count? I think he fits the eligibility criteria you set down initially for Rhodesian/Zimbabwean players who have not played for another country.

Dion Ebrahim holds the same record in both tests and ODI's for Zimbabwe, what is it?

Maybe the longest stretch of ODI matches between a ball bowled in ODIs, that's something like 71 matches between January 2005 and March 2010?
Nope. Another clue: it was a bowling record in T20I.

Maybe best economy for a bowler who has taken a wicket in T20Is: 3.40 ???

3000 List A runs for Waller. Almost a thousand in the last year.

A few major batting milestones could be reached in the near match ....
- Hamilton Masakadza needs 50 runs to reach 5000 ODI runs. He would be the the 5th Zimbabwean to do so and the first black Zimbabwean.
- Sean Williams needs 45 runs to reach 3000 ODI runs. He would be the 7th Zimbabwean player to reach this mark.

Would be nice if they both get there with a century stand together

I want to give half a point for that rusty because it is true and also related to what I want.
But not the answer I was looking for
