'Gnome' with the wind?

Thorpe often reserved his best performances for his 'away' matches, in which he averages 44.23, the subcontinent being a particular favourite hunting ground for him.

His performances reached a high in Sri Lanka, in March 2001, when he scored two centuries to lead his side to a memorable victory in the series.

It did not end there; his thick vein of form continued in Pakistan, where he scored another century.

His average in the sub-continent: 58.00
India: 42.00
Pakistan: 56.00
Sri Lanka: 67.00
