It's Story Time, our walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. This week, Adam and Geoff start off with a tale full of incident but plenty of heaviness, before moving on to one of the least expected rises to prominence in one of the most memorable matches of all. Also this week, the cultural place of the humble avocado, the brief burst of one of the fastest of his time, an incident-filled fourth Test linked to some eye-watering stats, and what did bring Ziggy and Wadey together at last?
