Virender Sehwag & Chris Gayle are the only two players to score a 200 in ODIs and a 300 in Test Cricket (both managed two 300s in Tests!)
Virender Sehwag is the only batsman to have scored over 7500 runs in both formats - Tests (8207 runs) and ODIs (7418 runs) AS AN OPENER!

younus khan has only averaged less than 50 in a calender year once since 2004
he has the second best test match to hundred ratio after bradman with a hundred every 3.3 tests
in asia it is a hundred every 2.7 tests
averages 50+ at home/away and neutral venues
possibly the most underrated batsmen of this generation, his stats are as good if not better than tendulkar and dravid, his average of 54.4 is also on the way up

Australia and New Zealand have never faced each other at the World T20 (they will, this time around).
New Zealand have never lost to India in a T20I.
Can anyone confirm if there are any more combinations amongst the top 8 sides with these stats?
