Got reminded of this thread. Did we reach 100, by the way? http://zimcricketforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=12097

EDIT: Apparently not. We are still at 99 ODI stumpings...

And we have a grand total of 17 test stumping in our history! 9 by Andy, 5 by Taibu, 2 by Mutumbami and 1 by Moor. So, nearly one in every five stumping at the highest level is made by the celebrated butterfingers!

And while we are at it, 9 stumpings in T20Is. 5 by Taibu, 3 by Mutumbami and 1 by Taylor.

I think Richmond has missed more than he has made.

He has 10 and I'm sure he has missed a dozen at least.

I put a lot of searching into this, particularly on the Rhodesian side, but only found Andy Flower and Tatenda Taibu had more than 20 FC stumpings, next closest I could find was 6 foot 5 Rhodesian keeper Howard Gardiner with 19!

I can add Cecil Harris with 23 stumpings for Rhodesia after WWII.

So Harris, Andy Flower, Taibu ?

foreignfield has it.

Taibu - 30
Harris - 23
Flower - 21

Gardner is next with 19

the modern keepers are mostly still in the teens

foreignfield : 3
CrimsonAvenger : 2
MidWest Rhinos, rusty17 : 1

Here is another chance for someone to get on the board or for foreignfield to create some early dominance.

8. Name all the Zimbabweans who have made a T20 century.

You got them all rusty. Though Hick counts as an English international.

Hami : 4
Goodwin : 2
Taylor, Chigs, Vermuelen & Chapungu : 1

I thought Chapungu might be easy to forget.

foreignfield : 3
CrimsonAvenger, rusty17 : 2
MidWest Rhinos : 1

Ok another one to get some more players on the board, you'll have to be quick on this one.

9. What are the best bowling figures by a Rhodesian/Zimbabwean in List A matches?
