This month's Q.IZ theme is 'the Nobel Peace Prize' In late 2014, the Pakistani cricketer Misbah-ul-Haq equalled Viv Richards' record for the fastest Test century (in 56 balls). On which ground did Richards score that 100 in 1986 (he said he had extra motivation that day to entertain the crowds) - a ground that has seen two other records being broken?
[+ Show Answer]
Antigua Recreation Ground, Antigua. Most of the ground staff were inmates from the prison where Richards' father retired as a prison warden. So he was essentially entertaining family and friends. The other two records were Lara's 375 in 1994 and 400* in 2004. International matches in Antigua are now played at a new ground - named after Sir Vivian.
