On another occasion — when he was playing for the Stockbridge Cricket Club — the Doctor again called for middle and leg. During the runs that occurred as the result of the Doctor's successful bat, Don's died on the cricket pitch, having just barely scored the winning run. (AUDIO: Autumn)
The Fifth Doctor didn't always bat middle and leg. He appeared to alternate between middle and leg and middle stump guard when playing on Charles Cranleigh's side. (COMIC: Time & Time Again; TV: Black Orchid)
