I finally gave up watching cricket after the Bhajji-Symonds
row. There was no point; real life (the fight) was presided
over by two dumbfounded commentators speculating the
cause, the language and the conclusion of it all.
The gentleman’s game has become so aggressive that
they had to coin a term for it, ‘sledging’. However, if you
believe that this aggression is an attribute of the new
millennia, think again. Here are some quotes compiled
over the years which you never heard on your TV.
Rod Marsh: "How are your wife and my kids?"
Ian Botham: " Wife’s fine but the kids are retarded"
Anonymous
"What a classy shot! Its heading over the boundary!.
Wait, a man is under it. OUT! What was he thinking?
Appalling shot!"
Glenn McGrath vs. Eddo Brandes
McGrath: "Why are you so fat?"
Brandes: "Because every time I make love to your
wife, she gives me a biscuit."
Mark Waugh vs. Adam Parore
Mark Waugh: “I remember this bloke from last tour,
he couldn’t bat then and he can’t bat now'”
Adam Parore: “Yeah I remember you too. Last
time I was here you were going out with a fat old
ugly whore. Now you married her!”
Marv Hudges vs. Viv Richards
Richards: "This is my island, my culture.
Don't you be staring at me. In my culture
we just bowl."
Merv: "In my culture we just say f**k off."
Daryll Cullinan vs. Shane Warne
Ian Healy vs. Arjuna Ranatunga
Ian Healy: "Put a Mars Bar on a good length.
That should do it."
(Shane Warne was having trouble getting the
overweight Sri Lankan captain to drive.)
Merv Hughes vs. Robin Smith
Merv: "You can't f***king bat, mate."
Smith: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can't
f**king bat and you can't f**king bowl."
Ian Healy vs. Arjuna Ranatunga
Ian Healy: "You don't get a runner for being
an overweight, unfit, fat c*nt!”
(When Arjuna Ranatunga called for a runner
on a particularly hot night during a one dayer in
Sydney)
Glenn McGrawth vs. Ramnaresh Sarvan
McGrath: “What does Brian Lara's cock taste like? “
Sarwan: “I don't know, go ask your wife “
