For batsmen, apparently 87 is the unlucky number - 13 Aussies and 16 English have got out for this score, both more occasions than "Nelson".
Have you ever got out for this score? I have, once.

Anyway, I would have said that the most common score to get out on was probably 0.

Out for 87? I wish!
I think that's part of the point. Anyone can (and most have!) got 0, but it takes something to get to 87 and out...!

Didn't Alistair Cook get out for the same score (mid-60s) 3 or 4 times last season?
