Batting against a less than decent spinner without a helmet. Went for an outrageous slog sweep and top edged it straight into my mouth. Claret everywhere.
That's what happens when rank number 11 batsmen try to be billy big bollocks

The voice of reasons umpiring. Gave me out lbw on my first ball on debut. Miles down leg. Twat.

1. Being given out to a daisy cutter that bounced 3 times and dribbled on to my toe. The arsehole bowler had the nerve to appeal and it was given. The previous ball I had smacked him for 6 like.
2. Almost forgetting to run for the last ball of an innings when needing 1 to draw and getting ran out. Should have been half way down the wicket when the striker hit. Instead a 50 odd year old bloke made it to the bowlers end before I made it down to strikers end

Took the gloves in a works match so that the 'keeper could have a bowl (I've done it a junior level).
First ball is a daisy cutter that misses everything, was rolling and couldn't have been doing more than 20mph by the time it got to me, flicked up off the fingers of the glove, straight into my nose. Smashed to bits, blood everywhere, I was down for what felt like an hour.
Later, I batted with two massive columns of bog roll sticking out my nostrils. I scored in boundaries that innings (not many of them either), as I wasn't running anywhere.

Got hit for 34 in an over playing for Whickham seconds. Word got around the league that this kid had been hit for 34 and the following week the opposition asked our captain to point me out - 'Oh he's in the first team this week'

Living in Leeds playing for a team nr Harrogate. We played a Sunday match at Sewerby Park, Bridlington on the cliff top. Very hot day, in the pub for lunch, loads of people spending their afternoon sitting round watching the cricket. I was run out without facing a ball. The laughter and the comments from the crowd had to be heard!

Not proper cricket but a tale from playing in the park with my mates.
Some lasses from school had stopped and were watching us play when I got the chance to pull off a stunning diving catch at deep backward point. Dropped the catch in mid-air and my outstretched arm landed in a pile of dog shit

Cracked my ribs on the wicket diving like superman for a caught and bowled (and missed it!).
When were you on tv mate?
Robin Marlar
"He was close to Test selection once or twice, but had to contend with the great Jim Laker, and others such as Fred Titmus and David Allen who were better batsmen. Marlar's own batting - he averaged less than 10, and was once stumped second ball for 6 after going in as a nightwatchman - counted against him."
Isn't that a no ball?
