In fact he did this when Sobers hit his 365th run to get past Len Hutton.

In late 90s there used to be a TV quiz program called 'Stumped' conducted by Bhogle and it had Sunny, Srikkanth & co from India competing against Border & co from Australia. It was a nice enjoyable program and Sunny was unbelievably good. He once answered 9 out of 10 questions correctly in a rapidfire round on all-rounders. This question was asked in that program and hence I remembered. I am raking my brains to remember some other questions from that quiz. If I do, I'll post them here.

Mark Waugh. He held the record for the highest ODI score by an Australian. Some 170 +till Hayden broke it in the NZ tour in 2007.

He has not made above 150 in Tests

Yeah. And rapid fire was great fun.

Once the question was
Connect Muralitharan, Iam Meckiff and Charflie Griffith
Ravi Shasthri (to answer quickly) blurted out: "all chuckers" Everyone including Harsha started laughing, then Manjrekar and Shashtri corrected them: " all alleged to have a suspect bowling action" :lol:
