Oooooof, this is getting a little heavy. Remember when Michael Clarke said to Jimmy Anderson 'Get ready for a broken arm'

That was funny wasn't it? Wasn't it? Please?

Being sledged just makes me giggle - well done, you've noticed I'm fat, again well done, you've noticed I'm not very good at batting, and finally - you're a genius and you've likened my batting in some way to an inability to play the piano or something.

At club level, much sledging is laughable, done by people who don't have the talent to back it up and sadly, often by a lot of young lads who think it's big and clever.

They look a bit daft usually.

Fully agree here

I only tend to sledge my mates from opposition teams as its a bit of fun

I remember getting sledged by a keeper once, we had bowled them out for 35 and we knocked it off for 1 in 7 overs but he was chirpy all the way

our opener hit a glorious straight drive over the bowlers head for six to " big edge that lads he cant middle anything"
then I was bounced and hit it 40 yards over ropes for 6 to "big slog that lads he only hits one way"

started game at 2 was in pub by 4 and they were still chuntering how we were lucky!!!!!!!!

I'll be a darn sight richer too so enjoy working your whole life fella.

I know i'm late to the party on this one, but that's just embarrassing mate. anyone that has to assert there social stature by quoting their bank account obviously has some insecurities they need to face up to. you're better than that lad.

Massive cringe

I once got sledged for being on here

I was batting against @wilkie113 s team and got abuse saying "oh its wilkies little friend lets make sure we keep him out here"
and so on for my entire 87 that day before being triggered

[northernboy1987]

you've noticed I'm not very good at batting

Say whaaaaaaat?! What kind of neanderthals are you playing against? Do they not appreciate raw talent when it's in front of them?!

[roco]

you've noticed I'm fat, again well done, you've noticed I'm not very good at batting,

they obviously are not used to a full figured elegant swash buckling style and are jealous of the ease at which the ball is despatched

[ppccopener]

it's not really a sledge but the one that makes me laugh is going out to open in a 100 over match on Saturdays and letting the first couple of deliveries go outside off and someone behind the stumps shouts:

''all day long lads all day long ''

I dunno why it just makes me smile.There's still 49.3 overs left in the innings.

and sledging has got to be funny otherwise what's the point?

'shot a ball here lads'... er, yes, that's how batting works?

I'm impressed that anyone calls you Wilkie's 'little' mate. Comparisons between Chewbacca and Yoda spring to mind!!

[FattusCattus]

Who are you kidding?

I knew that photo would come back to haunt me somehow, doesn't help my head is above the door either

that outfit was only for sky sports though

Slightly off topic, but some of the "advice" given by fielders to their bowlers is also quite amusing. Here are a few good ones..

"No bad balls". Really? Who knew!

This was a funny interaction. After a bowler gets hooked for six.. First slip shouts "Pitch it up!" (loud enough for the batsman to hear)...Next ball is pitched up, smashed down the ground. Fielder says the same "pitch it up". Bowler replies "It was f****** pitched up! Are you f***** blind??"
