n a festival game at the end of West Indies 1976 tour of England.

A look at whats happening at the World Series today:---HAUNTED HISTORYThe Cubs and Indians take a break on Halloween, with Cleveland holding a 3-2 lead. After the day off, theyll meet at Progressive Field on Tuesday night when Game 2 winner Jake Arrieta starts for Chicago against Josh Tomlin, who will be on three days rest.Both teams are trying to shake the ghouls and goblins from their past. In 1997, the Indians were just a double-play grounder from their first World Series championship since 1948 before the Marlins came back.The Cubs havent won the crown since 1908. Theyre trying to become the first team to overcome a 3-1 Series deficit since the 1985 Royals.FINE FORECASTThe weather is shaping up nicely for Game 6 -- none of those chilly, wet conditions that sometimes get in the way of clean, crisp ball at this time. Its supposed to be in the mid-70s during the afternoon Tuesday in Cleveland and in the 60s at night, with only a slight chance of rain.REST, ASSUREDCubs closer Aroldis Chapman gets a day to relax his rocket left arm after throwing 42 pitches Sunday night for an eight-out save in Game 5. With his team needing a win to extend the Series, Chapman entered in the seventh inning for the first time since 2012. He worked a career-high 2 2/3 innings to close out a 3-2 victory. Chapman fired 15 pitches at 100 mph or faster.BACK IN THE PICTURENow that the Series is headed back to Cleveland, young slugger Kyle Schwarber will have another chance to make a major impact as Chicagos designated hitter. Sidelined nearly all season following knee surgery, Schwarber returned for the first two games of the Fall Classic and went 3 for 7 with two RBI and a pair of walks. But he wasnt medically cleared to play defense at Wrigley Field, so the National League rules limited him to one pinch-hitting appearance over the next three games.

Has there ever been first-class cricket at Lords this late in the year? asked Bob Rollins from England For many years the cricket season on the main ground at Lords would finish with the Gillette Cup (later NatWest Trophy) final, which was held on the first Saturday in September. That tradition has slipped a little in recent years, but it turns out that this weeks County Championship match between top-of-the-table Middlesex and second-placed Yorkshire is indeed the latest that top-class cricket has ever been played on the worlds most famous ground. At first I thought the previous-latest first-class action there was a splendid match between Smokers and Non-Smokers in 1884 - it was played on September 15-16 - but ten years after that, in 1894, the game between Gentlemen of the South and Players of the South ran from September 17-19. Two major matches in recent years have been played later than that: in 2010 there was a one-day international between England and Pakistan at Lords on September 20, while in 2013 the Yorkshire Bank 40 final (the successor to the Gillette) took place on September 21. The latest Championship action at Lords before this year was also in 2013, when Middlesexs four-day game against Nottinghamshire finished on September 14.Who has played the most Test matches without ever playing at home? asked Ian Johnston from England A couple of old-time England players lead the way here. The Yorkshire allrounder Willie Bates played 15 Tests on four separate tours of Australia in the 1880s, but never appeared at home. In those days the sides for Englands overseas tours were raised privately, rather than by a central selection committee, while teams for home Tests were usually chosen by representatives of the ground staging the match. Frederick Fane, the Irish-born Essex amateur, played 14 Tests for England - and captained them in five, including three matches of the 1907-08 Ashes - but never played at home. And the Rhodesian allrounder Percy Mansell played 13 Tests in the 1950s, all of them outside South Africa. This excludes several current Pakistan players who have been unable to play at home for security reasons. Azhar Ali has now played 49 Tests but none in Pakistan, and Asad Shafiq 45. They have, however, played several home Tests in the United Arab Emirates.Whos the only man to play more than 100 international matches at the same ground? asked Khalid Zafar from Pakistan The answer here was quite a surprise: there is indeed only one man who has played 100 international matches (in all three formats) on one ground - Mushfiqur Rahim, who has played 105 at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur. Shakib Al Hasan has played 97 games there, and Tamim Iqbal 93.dddddddddddd Next comes Hamilton Masakadza, with 91 at the Harare Sports Club, where Elton Chigumbura has played 89. The Test record is held by Mahela Jayawardene, who played 27 matches at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo, where Muttiah Muralitharan played 24. Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara both played 23 Tests at Galle. Alastair Cook has played 22 Tests so far at Lords. Wasim Akram leads the way for one-day internationals, with 77 at Sharjah; Mushfiqur has so far had 73 at Mirpur, while Jayawardene and Sanath Jayasuriya both played 71 ODIs at Colombos Premadasa Stadium. Rahim has played 19 Twenty20 internationals at Mirpur, and Umar Akmal 18 in Dubai. Who had the most runs after playing 100 Tests? asked Keshuv Huria from India Top of this list is Brian Lara, who amassed 8916 runs in his first 100 Tests. Its quite close, though - nine others had more than 8000 runs, plus Garry Sobers who scored 8032 in a career of 93 Tests. Second behind Lara is Kumar Sangakkara, with 8651 runs, then come Younis Khan (8640), Rahul Dravid (8553), Matthew Hayden (8508), Virender Sehwag (8487), Sunil Gavaskar (8479), Sachin Tendulkar (8405), Ricky Ponting (8253) and Graeme Smith (8173). Of these Tendulkar had the highest average, with 57.97, just ahead of Dravid (57.79) and Ponting (57.71).I see that Sir Viv Richards has one stumping to his credit in first-class cricket - who was this? asked Jogeshwar from IndiaSir Vivian Richardss only stumping in first-class cricket came quite early in his career, in a festival game at the end of West Indies 1976 tour of England. Playing against T. N. Pearces XI in the last match of the tour at Scarborough, at some point in the second innings Richards relieved Mike Findlay of the gloves, and stumped the Pearces XI No. 8 Martin Vernon off the bowling of slow left-armer Raphick Jumadeen. Im not aware that Viv ever kept wicket in an international match.Did David Warner become the first Australian to score an ODI hundred in Sri Lanka during the recent series? asked Jamie Stewart from Canada Rather surprisingly, David Warners 106 in the last match of the recent series in Pallekele was indeed Australias first century in a one-day international in Sri Lanka - and it was their 40th official ODI there. Australias previous-highest score in Sri Lanka was 94, by Mark Taylor at the P Sara Stadium in Colombo in August 1992, just ahead of Matthew Haydens 93 in Dambulla in 2003-04. Two Aussies have managed 90 not out: Ricky Ponting in Hambantota in August 2011, and George Bailey in the previous match of the recent series in Dambulla.Send in your questions using our feedback form.
