You may consider the addition of your name as “cheating” a little, but is IS Googleable …

Ric, is it? What question would you ask? If I tried “cricket team with the lowest total number of letters in their names” would this post be in the top 10 results?

Not as far as I can see. Tried it. So what question did you ask? :-)

anyone remember ‘book cricket’ inside the classroom behind the teacher’s back? I can’t seem to recall the precise rules though…

Anant, didn’t forget the bridge, it gets mentioned as an evening thing later in the same post. But yes, did forget the indoor tennis.

Those were incredible times.

Boycott, Brearley, Rose, Randall, Roope, Miller, Old, Taylor, Cope, Lever, Willis.

December 1977 against Pakistan in Lahore. A Test Match probably memorable only for having an England team of 61 letters

Sorry – can’t help you with cricket team names – but playing games as a family is a wonderful thing.

I can’t hlp with the cricket I’m afraid, but I did listen to a Humphrey Lyttelton programme on Radio 4 earlier this year in which he was the MC for some quizzing between call centre teams in Calcutta. Seemed to be a strong culture of that there.
