The Viv incident has now officially been mentioned more times on here than the AAAS.

Apparently Sangakkara once said to Harbhajan "Why do you wear short sleeves when batting but long sleeves when bowling?"

Scathing.

Scathing.

Indeed. Heard someone use that the other day during a game, he was suspended for the rest of the season, and rightly so.

...

Only funny part of that post is imagining someone making a sledge so loud that people on the boundary could hear it

Err, why is it scathing?

Long sleeves = Cover the fact that he bowls with a bent elbow,supposedly.

That's gold, in my msn name it goes.

The best sledge i've ever heard while playing is not funny online, you would have to be there.

Playing at a very low level, This guy comes out to bat (From my side) who looked so old fashioned, the sort with slicked back shoulder length black hair and glasses, and the first thing the keeper said was

'Come on boys, lets send Wayne's world back to the dressing room'



Ahhhh,you;d have had to ave been there...

Scraping the sledging barrel, they are designed to make the batsman laugh and thus lose his wicket..

"Squared him up like a rubiks cube"
"Hey give him a piano, see if he can play that"
"Give him a car, see if he can drive it"

 

[scritty]

To our young quickie whose having (another) "bad day at the office".

"Thats right Leechy - - - Test him for width !! "

To the opposition batsman who is happy just knocking the ball back up the pitch and getting his team into trouble "chasing" in a limited over game.

"Whatever you do - don''t get this guy out - the next one might be able to bat"

To the young lad with brand new top of the range kit as he walks out to bat

"Make sure you send him back as clean as he came out"

all crappy ones from junior days of cricket

Seen more leaves on a tree.
The batsmans got more defense than the US Army.
Ive seen more edges on a circle.
Swining like a rusty gate on a windy day.
He couldnt cut butter if he tried.
Give him a car he cant drive that either.

So many more crappy ones, but cant remember them all.

 

[James_W]

He probably couldn't sweep a... never mind.

Wait, I've got one! Chimney, haha yeah!

 

[andyc]

After you get the first wicket

"Come on boys, let's rip through this tail"

 

[age_master]

After you get the first wicket

I defy anyone watching the 'from behind' shot to NOT be able to pick his threwsra.

 

[33/3from3.3]

Err, why is it scathing?

He was being sarcastic
but as you're irish i dont spose you know what that means

 

[Perm]

"I've seen better batter on a piece of fish" not that good but it makes the batsmen laugh.

As you're about 5 I doubt you do either.
