Opening post

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?)"

Struggling to think of a clue that doesn't give it away. It is a quality achievement.

Stab in the dark: Least runs conceded for an FC 10 wicket haul, going past, say, Raymond Price?

Half a point for Ray, Crimson

9000 FC Runs for Hami

1500 Test runs for Taylor.

Cremer went past 50 Test Wickets in this match only the 8th Zimbabwe bowler to do so

Also has 28 wickets in his last 4 Tests 🔥

Taylor moved past Taibu up to #8 in the runs tally for Zimbabwe in Tests.

Taylor 1567 runs

Taibu 1546 runs

Interestingly, after 24 Tests and 167 ODIs BT's averages are identical (not sure how it works out after 2 decimal points).

Tests - 24 games (48 inns, 3 not out, HS 171, SR 50.87) - 1567 runs at 34.82

ODIs - 167 games (166 inns, 15 not out, HS 145*, SR 74.47) - 5258 runs at 34.82

BT is probably the only other guy in the side that will, unless Zimbabwe starts playing a lot more Tests

Ervine has a chance, I'd reckon

Another milestone for Hami during this knock. He has now moved past Grant Flower (22,379 career runs) into 5th on the all time list for Zim.

Next stop K Curran 24,934.

Jacques Kallis is the only other player besides Raza to get two 80+ scores and a 5-fer in the same Test.

Best Figures in LA cricket by any Zimbabwean now belong to a Chinaman!

7-19 :o


Apparently Magarira is just SLA. Wrong classification by Cricinfo as Chinaman, which they haven't corrected for long...


That is much less exciting. :(
