Rules[edit]

  1. Anyone can answer a quiz question, but to ask a question you must first earn the right by being the first person to answer the previous one correctly. If the current question is still open and you think you know the answer, post your answer below and wait for an adjudication from the person who placed the question. Remember to sign your post with ~~~~.
  2. If you are the first person to post the correct answer, the asker will post a message below your answer confirming you gave the correct response.
  3. You now have the baton and should post a new question as quickly as possible. If you do not post a new question within a reasonable time frame, a comment should first be made, then anyone can either put out a general invite for a new question, or post one themselves.

Question guidelines[edit]

  1. If you're finding no-one can get the answer to your question, consider offering clues or replacing your question with an easier one. The aim is to keep the quiz moving.
  2. Remember that you have an international audience. Keep quiz questions relevant to international cricket in some way.
