Bill Voce to Jardine on the same tour "They don't seem to like you very much over here mr Jardine" Jardine "the feeling's effing mutual"

An Aussie in the crowd as Jardine swung his bat at a fly "Oi Jardine - leave our bloody flies alone - they're the only friends you've got".

He was Scottish was Jardine <ok>
 
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.

Standing on your head were you?
 
The Aussies started off well but then collapsed. England just need one more wicket, but the new guy is being very resilient. 15 off 18 balls so far.

I went out the house for an hour, when I left Aus were on 99-4 and looking like they could bat all day. Pleasantly surprised when I walked back in the door to hear the name Agar.
