Explanation

Albert Trott (Australia/England) hit a six that cleared the Lord's pavilion during the 1899 season - the only player ever to do so. The parenthetical notes clarify this refers to the current Lord's pavilion; the older pavilion (before 1880s reconstruction) was cleared by others. Trott's unique achievement with the current pavilion structure is what's being tested.
