Quiz time (WC)

[Tigers_eye]

Simple rules: Okay, lets play a game and gain knowledge. Everyone can participate. (1) The only rule is no cheating. No googling, or searching for answer. Be truthful to yourself. Never know, one of these questions you may know the answer and be correct. If you know it or you want to take a shot at it, answer the question. (2) If it correct, YOU GET TO ASK THE NEXT QUESTION. (3) If no one gets the answer right, 24 hours and the person asked the question should answer and ask another question.

ANYTHING RELATED TO WC. Let us stick to BD team. Easy, medium, hard; whatever floats your boat.

I'll ask the first question:
WHO HAS THE HIGHEST BATTING AVERAGE? Bonus: between which range? 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80-89.

Please don't spoil the fun by looking up stats. "Guess", if you don't know. We could read some funny posts.
Read the summary on the second post of this thread. You are welcome.

has to be either of our 2 best fielders, soumya or nasir. Nasir would have to be in 2011 (unlikely), so its Soumya Sarkar. And 3 or 4 catches.

[shabbir]

My question is

Name the Bd player who became match referee was also memeber of 1999 world cup team?

Good to know. I will come up with a question in a bit.

[Yankees]

In a single WC? Maybe Ash.
Overall? Has to be Shakib.

i guess Tamim

[i_am_ringo]

Hint: he doesn’t look like a six hitter

[Yankees]

too much of a hint. It's Mushy.

[Yankees]

I got one after ringo's questions, cause I'm pretty sure I got it right.

Which BD player went the most number of innings without a ODI hundred. And how many innings did he take to get there (I will consider it right if you come within +/- 5). And since this is WC related, in which WC game did he snap the streak?

You must get all 3 right since two of them are pretty obvious.
