OK then.

Who were the first twins to play an international test cricket match?

Hang on, bat sponsors.

Bravo- Woodworm
Bevan- Somers

First twins, go with the flow and say the Waughs.

I don't know about the bat sponsers. I saw a picture of Bevan with a Puma bat and Bravo batting with an unsponsered bat.

Waugh twins is incorrect

Yeah, Paoli's ahead of me. Bravo was GN, but in the most recent match I found a picture of him with a Woodworm bat. I'll give Woodworm their due, they're quick to snap up the exciting players. Pieterson, Freddy, Murali and Bravo. I think they might have got Sangakarra too.

I have to say though, that I thought Bevan was Puma.

I think Mark and Steve Waugh were the first set of freternal twins to play test cricket, the first identical pair is that of James and Hamish Marshall of New Zealand.

That's correct Teatime FatCat. Rosemary and Elizabeth Signal were indeed the first twins to play international test cricket, but in the womens' form of the game!

They played for New Zealand against England in 1984.

Looks like your turn again. Hurry up, I need a good reason to stop revising for my finals!
