Consecutive innings without getting out for a duck.

[Arthur]

Can anyone send me a link to the list that was on Sky earlier today showing the list of consecutive innings without getting out for a duck.

I believe Jimmy Anderson with 4 in said list.

I thought he held the record now.

Cricinfo disagrees

I don't have the full list - but this from the Guardian...

"So Anderson's duck-less run has ended on 54 Test innings, putting him fourth in the all-time rankings behind Aravinda de Silva, AB de Villiers and Clive Lloyd."

That list is the longest runs at ANY point in a player's career. The one Anderson is high up in is most innings from debut I believe, ie players who have NEVER had a duck.

I think sky list was those who batted at number 8 and not had a duck and he was 30 odd matches in front the second place person. That's not to say there list now is different I'm thinking about one I saw in an earlier test

Correct.

But Anderson has never batted at number 8?!
