One of the worst I have heard was after our opener smashed the bowler straight over his head over the sight screen for 6 the keeper piped up

Woahh lads huge top edge there

One of the worst sledges I've heard was from our own wicket keeper, a batter's come in and played a glorious pull followed next ball by a cut. So our WK comes out with 'Come on lads he's only got one shot'. Everyone just stood there 'You really are thick as pig-s**t!'

I had that to me last season from the same team the bowler bounced me then I pulled it for 6 and the keeper said

Straight across the line he can only slog

As much as I like being 'vocal' on a cricket pitch, I'll never say anything directly to the opposition in a nasty was unless they walk or are mouthy themselves. If I know people on the other team, like when we play Tom's team's then I'll pipe-up every now and then.

I was keeper first game of the season which was an inter-club game and me and first slip were ripping it out of the batsmen and must've talked 2 or 3 out lol. :D

I'm also quiet behind the stumps. Even in league games I try to be nice to the batsman. In friendlies I throw a bit of light-hearted banter around.. :)
Though on Saturday, opening bat had blocked a few and midwicket (also 16 like me) - chirped: "He's had more blocks than Legoland."
Absolutely Cringeworthy... :(

I've done it before, talked to myself while batting, you get the occasional "are you schizophrenic?" and a decent enough reply is "nah, I'm just better conversation than you" or something like that!

One of the worst I have heard...

Batsman plays a bad shot...
Batsman "(No Swearing Please) sakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!"
Slip "Have you got tourettes?"
Batsman "No."
Slip "Sure sounds like it"
Batsman "I'd rather have tourettes than what you've got"
Slip: (getting angry now) "What have I got then?"
Batsman: "downs syndrome by the look of your face"

Cue the whole opposition fielders laughing at their own player and the guy storming off the field!


(sorry if anyone was offended by that, not the nicest sledge!)

Remember a game a few years back and we were struggling so holding out for the draw seemed like the best option

And these were the lines I got

"More dots than an eastenders omnibus here lads"

"This guy has had more partners than Jordan"

In all honesty I just thought the guy was a t%$£t considering he got a first baller, but the dot one did bring a little chuckle !!!

Speaking of interteam banter we have a fines master and after every game he will fine every player for something they have said/done/worn or all of the above. It's a great way to bond after a game and the 2 or 3 quid from each person goes to the end of season Piss up!

On a slightly other note another thing I do as I stand at 1st slip is to count each throw from the keeper back around to the bowler. Every throw is 1p until someone drops it and they are fined what ever it's up to 50 throws is 50p.sometimes do 2 or 5p but we have a £5 cap on it.

It's funny that we don't play that game when I'm not at slip!

My personal favourite I heard was, we played a team and our opening bowler pinned there opening batsmen first ball of his spell, and the batsmen was on the floor and our bowler walked up to him and went you moan as well as your sister did last night, because he had been with her sister the night before

You'd be surprised at how true that statement is! But it's usually because I don't wanna be stung for any more money.

Has one last year, was batting and played and missed at a ball. Keeper chirps up, keep asking question, he ain't got an answer. Next ball hooked for 6, turned around, little smile 'hows that for an answer' Then went onto to hit 55 in a 122 stand.

Had one where a team were feeding me on my legs and i was just picking them off, keepers says 'Haven't seen a shot on the off yet guys' Next ball creamed through the covers for 4, didn't run just turned around a smiled
