Don't get a lot of sledging aimed ay me - just the occasional rare comment.
I tend to ignore it anyway unless it's personal! If it's personal (only happened once) then I let them know that if they have anything personal to say to me, then we can discuss it after the match! That does the trick and shuts them up. Don't sledge anyone myself although I enjoy some humourous chirping.  :D

Tbh when I bat I completely ignore any sledging towards me, however I do end up chatting and laughing with the keeper :)

Generally I can ignore 'abusive' sledging. I normally try and 'chat'  with the keeper either about the other batsman, or  about the oppo fielders if something goes wrong!

Keeper told the bowler I was a fat (No Swearing Please) so would only be able to play off my legs today.
1 - I know I'm fat
2 - does hitting a 4 make you a (No Swearing Please), I'd not said a word
3 - I'm stronger through the off than off my legs, but if you keeps ending leg side half volleys or full tosses down they're likely to go.

The opposition skipper did come and ask for a look at my bat while they went to fetch a ball, he was impressed with the performance (I only got 10 but they were middled!) and couldn't beleive it was a 404 or only £80, he thought a decent performing bat would have to be a top end (and clearly a number 11 wouldn't be able to time a ball so it was down to the bat lol)
