Border is the only player to get two scores of 150+ in a test. So one of the scores must be 251+. Not sure that helps :-)

Taylor is right for the aggregate q (I looked it up)

Agar was correct for his 98, and was on debut, but that's not what noteable.

It was also the highest score by a no11 that was also the highest individual score of the innings

Re: Agar, is the notable thing the fact that he has never done anything even remotely notable ever since?

A quick one: which England cricketer has been run out in tests more times than any other; and which England cricketer has run their partner out in tests more than any other?

Close & Boycott seem intuitive candidates?

The correct answer (based on what I found) was Boycott - for both :-)

I seem to remember that some of Boycott's were deliberate or 'team orders' to the other batsman? Or done for a bet, or just to wind him up?

Or was that just malicious reporting or re-crafted for after dinner speeches?
