Wow, I got eight. Was always going to struggle with the older ones although I got the obvious one of those and one other although there turned out only to be one name I had never heard of. Disturbing blank in the 2003-12 though that has me kicking myself, especially seeing one was a favourite . Also wasted 20 seconds repeatedly entering a name that I couldn't believe was wrong!I shall 'fess up to only 7.
The first name that came into my head was Brian Close, and I must have wasted more time than that trying to convince the mulish SCCC website that he was right. When the penny finally dropped, I pulled the plug and started again. That wasn't cheating................was it?Also wasted 20 seconds repeatedly entering a name that I couldn't believe was wrong!

Well known fact that England selectors have tended to watch cricket only at Lord's and, occasionally, the Oval!I only got 6, but don't support Somerset
Some school boy omissions though.
Obviously a similar quiz involving Surrey would gave stretched to about 50
