Any scorelines I should know about?
Ok, so everyone knows about the Lillee c Willey b Dilley scoreline. How many folks have heard of the Lamb c Kourie b Rice? (an oldie but goldie from South Africa's domestic competition) Are there any other scorelines out there that I should know about? Like, for instance, a Smith c Smith b Smith or perhaps a Ram c Sita b Laxman? You get the drift, I hope.

English domestic scene...I know of a Mustard and Onions....not quite sure if there was a Lamb in there somewhere...
Lee c: Lee b: Lee, all brothers.
I'm not sure if this qualifies, but I do remember a World series game down under which had:
Afridi c Blewett b Warne
which inspired the banner "We Warned you, but we're Afridi you Blewett"
This is not what you are asking for, but there is a scorecard of 5 Crowe's in a team, with one of them named Russell (yes, THAT one).

Catch me @ Cover Points
Gokul, thanks very much - thats a very good example and one of the kind I had in mind. Cheers!
Hey Samir, nice to find a blog on cricket
This is a little raunchy one & a little unrelated too.
while commentating during ENG WI test of late 70s (probably Botham's first series as captain)
"Bowler's Holding, Batsman's Willey"
(MA Holding & P Willey)
