    That's my (arguable) top six for the Greatest XI:

    Sutcliffe
    Turner
    Kane
    Crowe
    Dempster
    Donnelly

    So two minor test players (along the lines of Skippy) and the very obscure guy.

    The two minor guys are relatively recent.

    He would, but I think he counts as English or Rhodesian! 🙂

    Yeah - that was sort of the purpose of the quiz.

    I did actually know he had a great first class average - but, I didn't realise he was quite so high on the pantheon.

    Last guy (anyone's likely to get) is a household name - but not in the test format.

    @Chris-B I have been wracking my brains over this one working my way back through everyone I could think of.

    Does he share a middle name with a famous AB?

    Harris is the only guy I could think of who made a name in ODI's and had a substantial FC career. He seems the best of the candidates I could think of - most of them McMillan etc also made a reputation of sorts as test players

    @dogmeat That's him.

    Harry made a lot of hay in domestic cricket, but never translated it to tests (a bit like Michael Bevan).

    Here's the last guy - who comes in third in the averages - and sounds not unlike Munro - or Jock Edwards...

    Verdun Scott

    @Chris-B never heard of him though both his names are easy enough to make up clues for - I would never recognise it even if I got both words

    @Chris-B hmm learned something today.

    double international - phenomenal FC batting average - career that lasted 17 years and also bowled and kept wicket. Plus a good Shore boy.

    I see he was in both Richard Brittendens 50 big names of NZ cricket and Romanos' a Century of great NZ cricketers

    How come I've never heard of him?
