Writing in The Guardian, Ian Bell stumbles across a statistic:
Apparently, I average 64 in the first innings in Test cricket and 23 in the second. While I'm delighted to be averaging so many in the first dig, the other figure is probably something I need to look at. Mind the gap, as they say.
Bell finds parallels in greats like Steve Waugh, who had two half-centuries in the fourth innings of a Test.
