U19 12th Man
Mine was a Leg-break to a right hander bowling round the wicket. It pitched infront of his toes, he swang for it, wacked his toe, and fell over while the bowl dislodged the bails.

So not only was it great delivery it but it caused the batsman to create a whole new cricket shot...the "swang"

Perhaps when I was bowling to this guy who plays club cricket, opens the batting, gets runs, builds innings etc and I decided to differ away from my usual off spin, and decided to Bowl him a couple of 'Drifters'. A term I made up myself, meaning that you have all the actions of a pace bowler, but when you release it, it comes out slow, hangs in the air, and goes on to bounce indifferently.... He tried to play one of my drifters, but edged it straight to the keeper. Funny because this guy who had faced Derbyshires finest club players, bowling at up to 70mph, could not handle a 20mp drifter... and the celebrationw as awesome..... Giving high tens to everyone shouting "Montyyyy!"

A totally inept left-hander edging a short one onto his helmet and getting caught at second slip after playing and missing 400 times (this may be an exaggeration).

It can bounce 100 times mate but if it hits the stumps it's still a wicket...so well bowled sirMy funniest Wicket was my first proper cricket ball wicket. I bowled the batter but it bounced twice and it still counted. Well it was the umpire's decison

Played a game of BC in the dark at my Mum's last week. There was a little bit of light, but not much, you could barely see the stumps from the bowler's end. So, being the fine sportsman I am, I bowled a bouncer with what I think was my third ball. My brother was batting, he's thirteen. He ducked the bouncer, and then he turned to see his bails on the ground. I couldn't quite work out how I'd bowled him. I thought about it a bit more the next day and I reckon it must have hit the fence behind him and bounced back on. Awesome

Not true. If it bounces three or more times, it is a no ball.It can bounce 100 times mate but if it hits the stumps it's still a wicket...so well bowled sir

My funniest wicket EVER was a legspin. I was having a bad day, just gave out a couple wides. So I decide to twist my whole body into the leg spin, little waddle up, bowl, and I go FLYING over to the side, and hit the ground, look up and see the guy playing the ball on the WRONG SIDE! Bowled him right around the legs.
