443. On this day, more than a half-century ago, this gentleman achieved a special record which still stands today. He played two seasons for Rhodesia. Who is he?

Correct.

In 1957 Tayfield bowled 137 consecutive balls in a Test at Kingsmeade vs England without a single run taken off him. That must have been something to watch :roll:

When I saw a tweet about this on cricinfo this morning, I could have sworn I had already asked a question about him, but it seems I hadn't. He played for Rhodesia from 1947 to 1949 before breaking into the SA side.

444. It's been a while since he played his last FC match, but judging by the effort he still puts into his bowling, I can already hear shouts of "Get him in the team!" Who is he?

Patrick Gada...
Peterhouse U14C 4th change bowler and no. 10 batsman (but only because Aaron didn't have a bat).

Correct. Letting it -- or himself -- fly in Notts clubs cricket.

Probably a little too straight-forward after he was mentioned in the Trevor Madondo article recently. But I was surprised he had never feature in the quiz before and couldn't resist the urge to post it any longer ;)
