Not one but two instances of fielders colliding when going for a catch yesterday, deffo created a chuckle. First one neither shouted a name and they ran into each other and the second one they both SCREAMED their names and still ran into each other  :D

Seen them before but still make me laugh. There's one on how to get into the slip corden which is pretty accurate (certainly at the level I've spent most of my career at). Namely keeper, skip, whoever tells good stories and whoever actually takes a slip catch gets an automatic pass into slips  :D

Bloke came into bat on Saturday for oppos, think he was number 9,,,
Anyway, he was holding a lovely white poly Slazenger sports direct special bat, I passed a comment to my knowledgeable teammate Mr Hosk, on how wonderful the bat looked,,,,anyway, my sarcasm soon backfired, as the lovely chap preceded to take my bowling apart and dispatched me to all parts,,(before I bowled him)

Serves me right for being a bat tart

When the opening bowler is wearing white adidas shorts with blue stripes down the sides and black trainers and socks!  I refused to get out to him!! In which I was successful!

Had a good one last night- came out to bat with 3 balls to go in the innings. I hit a single, guy at other end out first ball. Next man in couldn’t be bothered getting his gear on for one ball so opposition told me to go back to the strikers end for the last ball, nobody at non strikers end! Then I dispatched it for 4! We won by 4 runs!!

A lad came out to bat in blue pads which was slightly village. What made it more village was he batted left handed and the pads were right handed. He lasted two balls

Our wonderful “league” umpire yesterday had a mare.

He got hit by the ball being thrown in from the boundary for a run out as “I’d stop paying attention”

He asked the oppos mid on to signal a six as his arms were tired.

And at the end of the 39th over when we still need a few runs to win, he pulled out the stumps and started walking off.


When we was shaking hands the other umpire said “not only do I have to put up with that crap every week, I have to fetch him and take him home as he isn’t allowed to drive”

Had a practice t20 match yesterday. Umpires said there is no lbw because batsmen cry and its a friendly match. We had an 11 year old offie in out team whos bowling figures read: 3 overs 2 for 13 which also included 2 dropped catches. We won by 99 runs having posted a 199 run target.

I think turning up to a ground after 6 weeks of 20+ degrees weather and finding a soft green deck is pretty village 😅

Then again, so is throwing your gear and having a breakdown after being Bowled first ball of the game on said pitch by a double bouncer from the quickest bowler in the league.
