Popeye

Which cricketer is nicknamed "Popeye"? This was a nickname bestowed on the Pakistan allrounder Abdul Razzaq, who some years ago was advised to eat lots of spinach, because it was healthy, and liked it so much he insisted on it being provide...d at almost every meal. His team-mates teasingly called him "Popeye", after the cartoon hero whose muscles improve whenever he gulps down a tin of the green stuff. During the 2004-05 Australian tour Razzaq had a bout of sickness that was initially blamed on eating too much spinach, although it's more likely that he had picked up a virus. "You can't get sick from eating safe and healthy food," he told the pakpassion website in 2008. "What happened was that I got a bit of food poisoning and that made me sick, that's all there is to it."

Laurie Fishlock

Question: Who made his Test debut against India but hurt his hand on the tour of Australia that followed, didn't play another Test for ten years till he was recalled to face India, and then broke a finger on the tour of Australia that followed?

Answer: The answer to this rather complicated question is the Surrey and England batsman Laurie Fishlock, who played his first two Tests against India in 1936, then went to Australia with Gubby Allen's side that winter but suffered a hand injury. He didn't play another Test until he was recalled for the final match of England's first post-war series, against India in 1946 on his home ground, at The Oval. Fishlock was 39 by then, but had been having a fine season. He only scored 8 on his recall - but was still taken to Australia that winter. Early in the tour he badly broke a finger, and played only in the fifth Test, his last England appearance.
