Man, all the clues finally made it easier for you didn't it? ;)

Indeed it is Jackie du Preez, the leg spinning all rounder, who was the first to play 100 FC matches for Rhodesia, and the first Rhodesian player to receive a benefit match by the then ZCU. He was in the selection panel as recently as 2009.

Well, this turned out to be a tough one then, but a point after a long gap, brmtaylor.com admin :)

In the past people have figured these ones out too easily, so hopefully this is a bit harder.

328. What match is this from?

Jackie du Preez, really? The first name that I had in mind when you said allrounder, Crimson, but I had a hard and long look at this photo of him yesterday and could not find any similarity whatsoever. Maybe I need to get me some new glasses. :?

Yes, that doesn't really look similar at all. But you can check the profile sketch here: http://rhodesiansportprofiles.blogspot. ... preez.html

You can spot similarity there.

By the way, this pic was from a team photograph. I'll post the full pic soon, after I use it to ask about a couple of others :)

My guess is the screen grab is from the game where Charles Coventry made 194*, judging from the on screen scoreboard.

Yes, that's more like it.

Probably need to order Jonty Winch's book from the library again for reference ;)

This drubbing of Sri Lanka in Craig Ervine's debut series?

Clearly I still haven't made it hard enough!
