Hamish Marshall has record in his sights

New Zealand Cricket just received a financial boost from SPARC, the sports funding agency. And Jonathan Millmow has provided another boost for the game by digging through the files and figuring out that Hamish Marshall is on the verge of equalling a New Zealand batting record. Only one other player, John R Reid, has ever managed to score centuries in five successive first-class matches. Marshall has scored four on the trot for Gloucestershire and has the chance to score a record-equalling fifth this weekend against Derbyshire.
