Yep, he threw thebat twirling throught the air.
Should have been dragged in on a contrary conduct charge for that.

I don't know whether someone has beaten it lately..but I remember when I was kid this record belonged to a West Indian spinner SonnyRamadin..be buggered if I know how many balls but it was more than 100 overs(of 6 balls)..so if he still has the record I'll go for 714 balls(at least it's a multiple of 6 !!)...

Thanks Bronco...My question revolves around a famous Test catch...This catch was taken after two others had dropped the same catch..Hint#1..The batsmen concerned became a Test Umpire..(he actually walked !!..)

I vaguely remember a catch from the 80's in slips that went through a few hands.

Was Border involved?

 

[dubopov]

Sorry El Duque...No Border involvement...Hint#3...It doesn't involve any left-hander !!

 

[El Duque]

Was Peter Willy the batsmen?

 

[dubopov]

No Willey..Hint#4..The batsman was a batsman !!
