At the risk of being thought of as 'slow' ...that list is doing my head in ...😵‍💫

Methinks you forgot the clue(s) ...

 

I'll give you the answers to the first two. You'll get the idea. Most of them are pretty obscure though.

26 letters of the alphabet.

7 days of the week.........

Thanks. 

Got it.  A few more:

• 4:  12 Signs of the Zodiac!
• 6:  52 Cards in a Pack
• 18: 12 Months in the Year

I'm happy now! 🙃

I can solve quite a few others but how does the list help in the 'War of Words' duel?

Good luck!!

Our fast bowlers length is keeping the Kiwis in this.

Cummins and Starc have bowled so badly.
