Well done. Ian Greig was originally selected for his "ability to swing the new ball" and opened the bowling in his first test with Botham, Willis was brought on later! Strange because as far as I remember he seldom if ever opened the bowling for Sussex being a contemporary of Arnold, Imran, Le...

PS Giddins did play for England but only after his unfortunate dismissal from Sussex.

Top stuff! You're absolutely right on Pigott - he came on first change. And yes Dexter opened the bowling with Barry Knight on a tour to Pakistan as did Tony Greig (with Geoff Arnold, later of Sussex) more than 10 years later. So two down and Kirtley Snow and Thomson are also spot on. The...
