Asked Steven

Yes we all love Steven Lynch and his ability to answer the most meaningless questions regarding cricket. Just to add some glamor to his column, I submitted a very interesting question which he duly answered. I've pasted the question and Steven's answer for people who may have missed this particular issue. (January 29, 2008)

Are India and England the only two teams who beat Australia in a Test in which Adam Gilchrist played? asked Abdullah Farooki from Pakistan

Adam Gilchrist lost only 11 of the 96 Test matches he played - consecutively - since his debut in 1999-2000. Five of those defeats came against India, and four at England's hands. The other two were to South Africa, at Durban in 2001-02, and in the famous match in Antigua in May 2003, when West Indies chased a world-record 418 to win.
