The Line & Length Tuesday XI: Answers

Yes, yes, quizzes should be on Mondays but I was making my way back from Abu Dhabi yesterday so apologies for the slight delay in presenting this week's quiz. I'm continuing with the picture theme, because I quite enjoy making them and you seem to enjoy answering them, and I think I've come up with a particularly testing one. The following are all international or domestic trophies, but what are they called (or if you'd rather, who contests them)? To be fair to you, I'll admit that not all of them are still competed for. Answers at the bottom

Cup1Trophy 1

Cup2 Trophy 2

Cup3 Trophy 3

Cup4 Trophy 4

Cup5 Trophy 5

Cup6 Trophy 6

Cup7 Trophy 7

Cup8 Trophy 8

Cup9 Trophy 9

Cup10 Trophy 10

Cup11 Trophy 11

Answer 1 The crystal replica Ashes urn

Answer 2 The Wisden Trophy, contested by England and West Indies

Answer 3 The World Cup, although Graeme Smith may never get to handle it again

Answer 4 The Pataudi Trophy, contested by England and India, although for some reason they are contesting something called the RBS Cup this winter

Answer 5 The Twenty20 Cup

Answer 6 Wasim Akram was a red herring. He is holding the NatWest Trophy as a Lancashire player

Answer 7 The ICC Champions Trophy

Answer 8 The B&H Cup

Answer 9 The World Twenty20 Cup

Answer 10 The original World Cup, as lifted by Clive Lloyd in 1975

Answer 11 The Under-19 World Cup, held by Owais Shah in 1998
