Average 40 in Division Two. What would you average in Division One?

I followed the same batters across promotion and relegation to find out how big the step is, who bucked the trend and whether it’s changed over time.

The longer test will be holding a place in a side chasing a third straight Shield title. 8/8

[The Leading Edge Cricket Podcast @LeadingEdgePod]

South Australia were six down and only 19 ahead. Their debutant at No.8 made 134.
Noah McFadyen, 23, also took 3/65 as SA beat Victoria by an innings.

Those were the highest scores by a number 8 on debut in the sheffield shield. Alexander had already played first-class cricket. 7/8

Remember Owzthat? Two metal dice, a little tin and a scorebook full of imaginary cricket matches.

I’ve brought it online. Pick your county, choose your XI and take on the other 17 counties.

Same appeal. No dice lost down the sofa.
