S1. E4. - Give us a Klusener

Season 1 · Episode 4

Friday, November 8, 2024 • Duration 49:57

As is the modern way, we’re changing up the format mid-series to don the pyjamas for a one-day showdown. Gary is off on hols (and is a red-ball specialist) so we mix things up with Lee asking the questions. Dave’s opponent is our first guest statter, friend of the pod, voice of the European cricket league and proud Australian: Andy ‘Rhino’ Ryan. Will Rhino be able to catch Dave cold in his first appearance answering questions?

Lee’s rounds are:

1) How’s stat (but with ODI numbers)

2) Give us a Klusener (Identify the World Cup finals from the clues)

3) Mike Ather-tons in all formats (Can you name century makers in all three formats?)

4) Ray your cards Bright (Higher or lower, featuring the 70s Aussie twirler)

After the ODI, Rhino faces his own 'Masterblaster Mind', where he takes on his specialist subject (although not quite what he asked for). Whatever the score, he will sit at the summit of the prestigious How's Stat Masterblaster Mind leaderboard (until the next guest...)

Find out who wins this Ashes battle and play along yourself.

The rounds for this episode are:

Day one - How's Stat (Name the cricketer from the stats)

Day two - Makhigher or Tikolower (a simple game of higher or lower with two titans of African cricket)

Day three - Never mind the Pollocks (guess the African cricketing family from the clue)

Day four - Morne Sporcle (work out the least popular answers in these cricketing Sporcle quizzes)

Tuesday, December 24, 2024 • Duration 56:45

The final test of the series is, as per 90s cricket tradition, a dead rubber. Both Lee and Gary can play fast and loose, as we return to the UK to test their more local cricket knowledge. See who comes out on top, and play along yourself in this slice of nostalgic (largely) English cricket trivia.

The rounds for this episode are:

Day one - How's Stat (Name the cricketer from the stats)

S2.E1 - Connect Four Runs

Season 2 · Episode 1

Tuesday, January 14, 2025 • Duration 45:13

We've filled a gap in the schedule with a cameo appearance from Pete Lamb, Gloucestershire Cricket Club's Head of Community. He is pitted against Lee in an ODI special, with questions from Dave (Gary is keeping his powder dry for the red ball stuff, Mark Butcher style). How will Pete do against the wily Lee, and perhaps more pertinently, will he beat a score of four in the Masterblaster round?

The rounds for this episode are:

Round one - How's Stat (Name the cricketer from the stats)

Round two: Connect four runs (Name the ODI connection)

Round three: Noughties and nice (Name the ICC top ranked ODI bowlers in 2000)

Round four: Closest to the pin (Points go to the closest person to these ODI stats)

Pete's Masterblaster round is Gloucestershire Cricket Club 2014-2024.

S2.E2 - 14 to Wong

Season 2 · Episode 2

Wednesday, February 5, 2025 • Duration 12:20

In this short form pod, we embrace the modern game with a quickfire T20 style quiz. Much like many English players in the mid-noughties, Dave and Gary may be fish out of water as they struggle with the up-tempo nature of the quiz, but who will come out on top? Lee takes over questioning duty as a precursor for his test match series later in the year.

The rounds for this episode are:

1) Ramesh Powar-play (Can you name any six of the top 20 six-hitters in the history of test cricket?)

2) 14-to-Wong (Name the top 14 contracts from the history of the IPL)

S2.E5 - Doolally Mullally

Monday, February 24, 2025 • Duration 16:45

This is the final t20 special in our less than serious mini-series. Dave is in the chair, as Gary and Lee battle it out in this light-hearted affair. Who will be able to handle the pressure, especially with a frankly ludicrous denouement.

The rounds for this episode are:

1) The Multan Sultans of Swing (Guess the country from the franchise names)

2) Name the twelve (Test your memory of the 2010 World T20 triumph for England)

3) Doolally Mullally (Get the 90s England test cricketer from the rhyming phrase).
