Challenging Quest: Each Cricketer Achieving the 2000 Run-100 Wicket Milestone in Men's One-Day Internationals
A fascinating cricket quiz has recently surfaced on the web, challenging participants to name every all-rounder who has achieved the coveted double of 2,000 runs and 100 wickets in men's One-Day Internationals (ODIs). As of September 3, 2025, a total of 47 cricketers meet this criteria.
The quiz presents participants with various details about each all-rounder, including their runs, wickets, primary team, and career span. To add an extra layer of difficulty, the participants are given a time limit of 10 minutes to complete the quiz.
One of the most impressive entries on the list is a South African all-rounder who won the Player of the Tournament in the 1999 Cricket World Cup. This South African cricketer is the only one on the list with a batting average over 40 and a bowling average under 30. His name is Lance Klusener.
Interestingly, the quiz does not specify the number of all-rounders from each decade or the number of all-rounders from specific countries on the list. Nor does it provide any additional information about the 1999 World Cup or the other all-rounders on the list.
The quiz is not just a test of one's cricket knowledge but also an opportunity to stay updated with the latest cricket news, player updates, team standings, match highlights, video analysis, and live match odds. It can be played alongside updates, live scores, match stats, quizzes, and more on the website.
The list of all-rounders who have achieved this double is reasonably long and is dominated by all-rounders from the 1980s to the 2000s. However, the quiz does not mention the order or ranking of the all-rounders on the list.
Whether you're a seasoned cricket enthusiast or a casual fan, this quiz offers an exciting challenge. So, grab your cricket gear, settle in, and put your knowledge to the test. Good luck!
