    That doesn't seem to have a lot to do with it. When I used to play cricket, my average was 6 (runs per inning).

    Real cricket has more complications, such as line, lateral deviation, fielders near the bat, and the occasional fast bowler who wants to knock your head off. Saying that, facing a fast bowler is nowhere near as scary as fielding close in for a spinner - sometimes the batsman takes exception to your company, and aims the ball at you with vigour. Despite my rubbishness with the bat, I've only ever felt challenged by quickies, but I've felt terrified when the skipper told me to go in at silly point.

    Well I'm up to a personal best of 574. I'll never come close to Craterus' feat, however.

    367. Browser tends to slow down the longer the game goes, so it was harder to time the ball as it went on.

    We don't include the runrate multiplier, so that score is 212.

    How do you stack them so neatly? Whenever I try that stunt, they end up bouncing out of reach and then onto the wicket or into the out-zone.
