Making my proper debut today. One of the tutors who did my course is Cheshire based so had me doing indoor games with her over the winter and connected me with her club who I am doing 2nd XI games for this season. We’ll see how it goes, just need to remember if it pitches outside leg it’s not out

Don't give anything but the genuinely plumb ones imo. Easiest way to stay balanced.

Be very grumpy, that way the young 'uns won't try it on so much

Give 'em SEVEN(-ball overs for shits and giggles)!

"Just sliding down"

"Not quite doing enough"

"Height"

And after a few refusals,

"Well I'd be guessing if I gave that. Should I guess when you lot bat?"

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

If in doubt, give batsman out.

Especially if he has a lot to say for himself

It's also a good rule to follow at lower levels when the batting side umpires.





As long as your side is batting.

May you be as ruthlessly impartial as Subhash Modi

It was an absolute ripper of a game. Green top, ball going round corners. I made one howler but otherwise it went okay.

Yeah, the opener/captain for the losing team, which is the team I’m umpiring for. He smashed it apparently. Confirmed by the bowler

Who did you saw off?

Who did you saw off?

4 leg befores - your very sensible advice was clearly ignored - just goes to show you can't help some folk

3 of the 4 were as dead as it’s possible to be tbf. One of them walked before my finger was up

He second top scored and they lost by two runs.

So are you the man of the match for the winning side?

 

[Son Of Coco]

If the fielding team is really giving you the shits, a "looked to be going over the top" when it hits them on the boots playing back to one is always good.

I feel bad for Ben Kettle. 7 fer with the ball to set up an easy chase, only to be out first ball. Is he a prospect we should keep our ears open to hearing about?
