This is the
page that shows the lighter side of the game. It is a collection of some jokes, etc that I have seen or read on
the internet and thought worthwhile compiling on this page. I hope that you will enjoy reading them.
If you have
any jokes and/or anecdotes that you would like to see on this page please feel free to e-mail them to me.
Cricket
- the foreigner's guide
You have two sides, one out in the field and one in, in the field. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out,
and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out
comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still
in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes
in and the next man in goes out and goes in.
There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When
both sides have been in and all the men are out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been
in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!
Excuses
- Rowner style!?!?
The earth's magnetic field disrupted the flight of the ball (Ian Collins?)
I lost track of the ball when I was reading that guy's tattoos (Can Rowner players read?)
I was trying too hard to impress the scouts (Liam Moggeridge?)
I'm saving my energy for when I turn pro (Chris "too cool for school" Evans?)
This pitch is too small for my enormous talent (Steve Bates?)
You've
seen worse?
The nervous young batsman was having a terrible time and was lucky to still be at the crease. During a lull, he
stammered to the wicket keeper, "Well, I expect you've seen worse players"
Silence....................
First slip added "he said I expect you've seen worse players" The wicket keeper replied "I heard
him the first time. I was just trying to think"
Bottle
of Beer
The batsman was having a bad time. He played and missed at every ball and was becoming more hot and flustered every
minute. As the bowler was walking back; the batsman turned to the wicket-keeper. "Phew," he said "what
couldn't I do with a bottle of beer right now"
The wicket-keeper thought for a moment. "Hit it with the bat?"
A Quote
for all Cricketers
Dennis Norden:
It's a funny kind of month, October. For the really keen cricket cricketer, it's when you realise that your wife
left you in May. |
