I'd sold mine about 7-8 years ago, but still have my checklist that I'd made up; I had about 35 of them. Not an expert on editing others posts, so will list them here:
1/ Straight Drive
2/ Tea Break
5/ Googly
6/?
8/ Maiden Over
9/ Tempting Delivery
10/ Leg Before Wicket
17/ The Willow
22/ The Team Took The Field
23/ Stone Walling
28/ Stumped
29/ Square Leg
32/ Batsman's Paradise
33/ Slogger
36/ Meat Of The Bat
39/ All Out
40/ Caught Behind

I had 3 that I wasn't sure of the numbering: Drinks Break and Owzat and one other unknown (26 gully). As you have Owzat as 30, then I'd suppose Drinks Break is number 6....
Cheers John
 
Thanks John. Appreciate it. I may actually have the numbering of Owzat wrong as I got that off an ebay listing, so have not personally verified it. If anyone can confirm this?
 
Thanks for checking up on Owzat for me. I've now **confirmed Drinks Break as 6 and of course left Owzat as is.

Death Rattle has certainly thrown a spanner in the works. I thought the set was limited to 40. Be interesting to see if anyone else can shed some light on this :)



**EDIT: Meant to say "I've now listed - not - confirmed" but it makes sense that Drinks Break is #6 unless Death Rattle has anything to do with that spot in the list :)
 
Hi Naz, here are images of the cards, I hope they are of assistance,

regards Russell :thumbsup:

Hi Naz,

it should be No 6. I have scanned the rear of the first pic and although it is a double print on the back of 6 I still think Death Rattle was 6 although stand to be corrected

regards Russell :thumbsup:

Nazim,

Have the full set in NM condition and unless it is an error card, there is no 'Drinks Break' card in the issue of 40. The #6 card is definitely 'Death Rattle'. You'll also find they come as paired uncut cards that have the single card competition details spread across the entire width of the reverse, also as proof or blank back cards i.e. no reverse printing. Mysteriously, they also appear to have been issued after the competition closed, which can be identified by the backs which have been entirely over printed in a mash of vertical and horizontal lines.
