I will bet you getting 6000 first because I don’t see him getting to 700. Great bowler but age will catch up.
Having said that am glad he got the 600th today as the next test if I read correctly is in 2021

Thanks to all including RogerE, MJspet and Panterra, for the congratulations. I note, with a smirk, that not only Ubobo, but RogerE himself, is giving admissions for borrowed stuff!
I could almost remark about how the Luimbricus terrestris has changed tack(almost, but I won't).

Waffle , please note that I try to explicitly acknowledge sources,
often with links provided. That's the fair play I advocate.
For the biologically curious:
Lumbricus terrestris is a large, reddish worm species widely distributed around the world (along with several other lumbricids). In some areas where it is an introduced species, some people consider it a serious pest for outcompeting native worms.

The numbers are a numerical soup of digits. But have you looked carefully at the comma in 20,000?
.
It looks to me like a cute chicken, wandering off to the right. Very nice.
In fact, in that detailed view the adjacent fractional zeros looks like adult hens, supervising.
Happy Day to all.
