rf_fozzy Jul 2020 12:26pm, 26 Jul 2020 10,895 posts	Quote Pin rf_fozzy Sir Brexit Botham is the correct answer. 52ovs, 3-217

rf_fozzy Jul 2020 12:33pm, 26 Jul 2020 10,896 posts	Quote Pin rf_fozzy Most runs conceded for England have been: Botham (217) Ian Peebles (204) Matt Crane (193) Adil Rashid (192) Ashley Giles (190) Mohin Ali (190) Gareth Batty (185)

Oscar the Grouch Jul 2020 1:00pm, 26 Jul 2020 1,789 posts	Quote Pin Oscar the Grouch Funny, really... I never think of Broad as one of the greats and yet, 500 Test wickets undoubtedly puts him in that class.
ThorntonRunner Jul 2020 1:02pm, 26 Jul 2020 3,612 posts	Quote Pin ThorntonRunner It's strange - he goes for games on end without doing anything special and then just when I think he probably should be dropped he puts in one of his spells...
