    Not joking Bib, most of the top class cricketers I watched were ****ing massive guys. The first time I padded up for a match I almost shat myself when the guy near took my ear off with a yorker.

    It's ****ing dangerous, that ball is like a lump of red granite and it does not half move when it's coming towards you, try catching one too, stings like **** and is likely to break a finger.

    Nobody&#8217;s perfect, you know what happened to the last man who was, they crucified him. &#8211; Geoff Boycott

    Geoffrey is the only fellow I&#8217;ve met who fell in love with himself at a young age and has remained faithful ever since &#8211; Dennis Lillee

    Have nothing to do with coaches. In fact, if you see one coming, go and hide behind the pavilion until he goes away &#8211; Bill O&#8217;Reilly

    Cowans should remember what happened to Graham Dilley, who started out as a genuinely quick bowler. They started stuffing &#8216;line and length&#8217; into his ear and now he has Dennis Lillee&#8217;s action with Denis Thatcher&#8217;s pace &#8211; Geoff Boycott

    We don&#8217;t play this game for fun &#8211; Wilfred Rhodes

    We didn&#8217;t have any metaphors in my day, we didn&#8217;t beat about the bush &#8211; Fred Trueman

    The slow motion replay doesn&#8217;t show how fast that ball was &#8211; Richie Benaud

    The Queens Park Oval, exactly as the name suggests, absolutely round. &#8211; Tony Cozier

    Welcome to Worcester where we&#8217;ve just seen Barry Richards hit one of Basil D&#8217;Oliveira&#8217;s balls clean out of the ground &#8211; Brian Johnston.

    Eric Morecambe to Dennis Lillee &#8211; Are you aware, Sir, that the last time I saw anything like that on a top lip, the whole herd had to be put down.

    So, how&#8217;s your wife and my kids? &#8211; Rod Marsh (to Botham)

    You can&#8217;t have 11 Darren Gough&#8217;s in your side &#8211; it would drive you nuts. It would be like having 11 Phil Tufnells &#8211; Darren Gough

    Merv Hughes 5[SUP]th[/SUP] form geography report;
    When Merv leaves school he is going to have to be very good at cricket and football.

    I&#8217;d have looked even faster in colour &#8211; Fred Trueman

    I can&#8217;t really say I&#8217;m batting badly. I&#8217;m not batting long enough to be batting badly &#8211; Greg Chappell

    Cricket civilises people and creates good gentlemen. I want everyone to play cricket in Zimbabwe. I want ours to be a nation of gentlemen &#8211; Robert Mugabe

    There were congratulations and high sixes all round &#8211; Richie Benaud

    Neil Harvey&#8217;s at slip with his legs wide apart, waiting for a tickle &#8211; Brian Johnston

    What a magnificent shot. No, he&#8217;s out &#8211; Tony Greig

    No, I've already got four kids. Don't need any more. What with all the child support and trying to keep your ex-wife in a style she's not accustomed to, ie. having decent food, good sex etc., I've got enough on hands without adopting any more weans.
