If you thought 100 100s was a big deal

SRT needs less than 600 runs in List A matches to pass Graeme Gooch at the top of the run scoring list in those matches.

Probably should also mention that SRT's FC average is currently just below 60. Only Bradman has scored more than 20000 FC runs at more than 60.

How would Bradman have gone in the 20T?

He wouldn't have been picked because you need to be good at hitting 6s to be any good at T20. Apparently.

He would probably have adapted, for as long as he needed to before baling out.

He would have embezzled the money ...

Ahem ......He didn't agin Larwood and Voce.
He just made up for it by bitching.

Well, I know JGK wasn't being serious, but...

Just because Bradman generally chose not to hit sixes didn't mean he couldn't hit sixes. After all, this is the man who once scored a century in three (eight-ball) overs while playing for Blackheath against Lithgow (not exactly top class, but still).

The scorecard for those overs read like so (his partner's shots are in bold):

6 6 4 2 4 4 6 1

6 4 4 6 6 4 6 4

1 6 6 1 1 4 4 6

He hit 14 sixes in that innings while compiling a total of 256.

Twnety20? I reckon he'd have done alright...

Yeah, he cleary had no idea how to handle them. I mean he only averaged a paltry 56 in that series! He let Eddie Paynter beat him to top spot in the batting averages... oh the shame!

What's the defo of a List A game again? I see SRT's highest score is 200* which I thought he made in a JAMODI.

It's the first class equivalent of limited overs matches (I think of a scheduled 40 overs or more).

Fanx.
