Which brothers have played cricket the most matches together?

#5 Steve Waugh and Mark Waugh

Unarguably, Steve Waugh and Mark Waugh remain the best pair of brothers to ever play the game. Amassing more than 18000 Test runs and 52 centuries between them, the twins were instrumental to Australia's dominance during the late 90s and early 2000s.

By the time Mark made his Test debut, Steve had already bagged 42 caps and proved his utility as a seam all-rounder. However, a sudden dip in form resulted in the latter facing the axe during the 1990/91 season. Ironically, Steve was replaced in the lineup by his twin brother.

Eventually, the duo established themselves in the Australian set-up and featured in a whopping 108 Tests together. Mark was captained by his twin brother in 40 of those matches.

#4 Ian Chappell and Greg Chappell

When captain Greg Chappell instructed his younger brother Trevor to bowl under-arm to prevent New Zealand's attempt at scoring six runs off the final ball during an ODI in 1981, his elder brother Ian overcame familial bond and condemned the incident on air. However, there was much more to the legacy of the Chappell brothers than that infamous episode.

All three brothers played Test cricket for Australia with varying degrees of success. While Ian was renowned as a master tactician, Greg established himself as one of the finest batsmen of all-time. The duo played together in 43 Tests with the Aussies winning as many as 22 of those matches. On the other hand, Trevor could only manage three appearances in whites.

#3 Andy Flower and Grant Flower

Often carrying the hopes of the entire Zimbabwean batting lineup on their able shoulders, Andy Flower and Grant Flower played together in 61 Tests. However, their team was able to win only six of those matches. Nevertheless, the brothers scored more than 8000 runs between them at the highest level of the game.

While Andy also managed to account for 151 dismissals behind the stumps, Grant's gentle left-arm spin fetched him 25 Test wickets too. Even though it has been some time since they have retired from the game, their affection and respect for one another can be perceived from the fact that Grant convinced his elder brother to tour Pakistan as part of the World XI team.

#2 Mohinder Amarnath and Surinder Amarnath

Mohinder Amarnath, younger to Surinder by two years, was the first of the two brothers to represent India in Tests. One of the most courageous batsmen of his time, Mohinder's inspirational record against the menacing West Indies attack stands as a testament to his willpower.

Unlike his younger brother, Surinder was a left-handed batsman. Even though he had a brilliant start to his Test career, the Kanpur-born cricketer could only manage ten appearances in the game's traditional format with Mohinder also featuring in eight of those matches. Rajinder, youngest of the three brothers, also played first-class cricket. It is pertinent to note that their father Lala Amarnath was the first Indian batsman to score a Test century.

#1 Shaun Marsh and Mitchell Marsh

Shaun and Mitchell Marsh are probably the most recognizable pair of brothers in the present-day international circuit. While the elder one has featured in 23 Tests and scored four centuries, the latter has bagged 21 caps without making any discernible impact thus far. Together, the Marsh brothers have featured in seven Tests with Australia winning four of those matches.

Sorry for deviating from the question..

Coming to it it must obviously be Steve-Mark Waugh Brothers..

Why do Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Saraswati never stay in the same house together?

(Divine mother)

Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Saraswati are different aspects of universal mother.

Lakshmi : Sri Lakshmi means born with an objective to serve Narayan (goodness).

Lakshmi never eternally stays with a wicked , cruel , corrupt person.

A morally corrupt person shall have Lakshmi till end of his / her previous Punya Karma (good deeds).

But, Lakshmi never truly blesses wicked.

Saraswati : Saraswati means one , who possesses wisdom.

She always stays with one who is morally or ethically good.

Saraswati gradually turns her devotees prosperous.

Saraswati never stays with anyone; who is morally corrupt and arrogant.

Facts: Goddess Saraswati and Sri Lakshmi stays with Nar Narayan (a good soul)

They partially stay with a wicked person because of his / her previous Punya Karma.

One may find good souls blessed with Goddess Saraswati (wisdom) and Goddess Lakshmi (wealth)

Prayer : Sri Ganeshaya Namah Jai Sri Vaghdevi Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Jai Lakshmi Narayan Namo Parvatipataye Har Har Mahadev Jai Jai Jai Hanuman Gosai Kripa Karo Gurudev Ki Nai

Why did Amir Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan never work together?

 

  1. Aishwarya never worked with Aamir Khan in a film except very brief appearance in Mela (2000). In that film Aishwarya appeared at last minutes of the film to pair with Aamir Khan's brother Faisal Khan.
  1. She was not paired with Aamir in any film but there were several attempts to cast them together. Bollywood director Yash Chopra wanted to launch Aishwarya Rai in his film Darr (1993) with Aamir Khan and Sunny Deol. Yash Chopra also screen tested Aishwarya for Juhi Chawla's Kiran role but later Aamir Khan and Aishwarya Rai both were dropped from the film and Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla were finally cast. Aishwarya was more interested to join Miss India pageant than doing film. So Yash Chopra decided to work with her some years later after her Miss India pageant. Unfortunately she lost Miss India trophy to Sushmita Sen and went to Miss World competition instead of Miss Universe competition. During that time Miss World was secondary to Miss Universe.
  1. Many filmmakers tried their best to launch Aishwarya Rai in film industry but couldn't succeed. Mani Ratnam wanted her for Madhoo's role in Roja, Manisha’s role in Bombay, Shankar wanted her for Manisha's role in Tamil film Indian but she refused all of them for modelling career. She was extremely popular model at that time. She infact got her first breakthrough in modeling career with the famous Pepsi Ad with Aamir Khan himself and Mahima Choudhry.
  1. Director Dharmesh Darshan approached her for Karishma's role in Raja Hindustani opposite Aamir Khan but again she refused to do it for her Miss World commitments. She was so much into ramp fashion modeling and TV ads. Later Dharmesh signed Karishma Kapoor.
  1. Aamir Khan and Aishwarya again were supposed to act in Indra Kumar's Mann but Aishwarya was busy shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam at that time. So she refused to do it.
  1. After several failed atrempts to bring Aamir and Aishwarya together they were so close to act in Ketan Mehta's Mangal Pandey- The Rising. Again Aishwarya Rai backed out of the film at last moment on financial conflicts with the director Ketan Mehta. So they again couldn't do the film. Aishwarya was supposed to play Ameesha Patel's role.
  1. When Aishwarya refused so many films with Aamir Khan then the actor decided not to work with her in any film. Infact producer Aditya Chopra wanted Aishwarya opposite Aamir in Kunal Kohli’s Fanaa but Aamir refused to work with her and suggested Kajol's name to Aditya Chopra.
  1. Aamir Khan and Aishwarya did a live concert and Pepsi and Coca Cola ad together but never did any film together except Mela where Aishwarya did only 2 minute cameo.

Why did not Shahrukh Khan and Kadar Khan work together?

 Shahrukh Khan and Kader Khan never worked together. Kader Khan had a cameo in “Oh Darling Yeh Hai India”, as one of the bidders.

Though they were in the same location for a scene they did not had a dialogue exchange.

The main reason for their non-collabration was that their peak careers didn't perfectly overlap. During the initial stages, Shahrukh gained fame as an anti-hero followed by a romantic hero. At that time Kader Khan had just stepped out from villainous roles and was on his comedy streak especially with Govinda and David Dhawan.

Besides this, their preferred teams were different too. Kader Khan worked extensively with David Dhavan at that time while Shahrukh’s major collabrations were with Yash Chopra and Karan Johar.

Post - 2000s Kader Khan also had significant health issues which was later followed with a knee operation and wheel chair dependency which limited his participation in films.

So there was no professional conflicts between the two. The main reasons for their non-collabration was differences in their career timelines, lack of suitable opportunities and natural divergence of their individual film trajectories.
