Go ahead Angi, give them a chance to score MAXIMUM of 6 points as well. 'Maximum' here has the same meaning as the Maximum marks on your Mathematics Question Paper

I'll stand corrected on this one (but can I have a sundry/extra added)? Burke Ct Cowdray B Locke is the non cricketing cricket record (the only one that Laker didn't take!)

Being generous - for two runs - who was the Yorkshireman who captained England and also Captained Leicestershire to the County Championship?

A player X was born in a country A, he played international test cricket for B and represented another country C in first class cricket. He was banned by a country D beacuse he was associated with a country E. One run each for X, A, B, C, D and E.

That's an absolute corker, manvinder, my hat's off! It requires real knowledge of the game. Too hot for me, I fear, apart from having a guess that country E is possibly South Africa.
Group effort here required here then team. If any of you have an inkling about the player or any of the countries involved, then post away and the rest of us can see if we can help with verification before a final submission.

Ooops! Pardon me.  >>>before a final submission<<< I don't think I could possibly have chosen a more unfortunate turn of phrase.  Don't get your hopes up Mashers, we won't be giving in that easily, our motto is "Never Say Die". Erm, what I actually meant was...before we present you with our final (correct) answer.
