Classic Cricket Sledges (sent in by Martin Dew)
THESE HAVE BEEN EDITED SLIGHTLY AS THERE WERE A FEW NAUGHTY WORDS
Rod Marsh & Ian Botham:
When Botham took guard in an Ashes match, Marsh welcomed him to the wicket with the immortal words:
"So how's your wife & my kids?" the reply from Botham was "my wife's fine, your kids are retarded".
Daryll Cullinan & Shane Warne:
As Cullinan was on his way to the wicket, Warne told him he had been waiting 2 years for another chance to humiliate him.
"Looks like you spent it eating," Cullinan retorted.
Glenn McGrath (bowling to portly Zimbabwean chicken farmer Eddo Brandes):
"Hey Eddo, why are you so beeping fat?"
Eddo Brandes: "Because every time I beep your mother, she throws me a biscuit."
Robin Smith & Merv Hughes:
During 1989 Lords Test, Hughes said to Smith after he played & missed: "You can't beeping bat."
Smith to Hughes after he smacked him to the boundary: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can't beeping bat & you can't beeping bowl.
Merv Hughes & Javed Miandad: Merv Hughes & Viv Richards:
During 1991 Adelaide Test, Javed called Merv a fat bus conductor.
A few balls later Merv dismissed Javed. "Tickets please," Merv called out as he ran past the departing batsman.
During a test match in the West Indies, Hughes didn't say a word to Viv, but continued to stare at him after deliveries.
"This is my island, my culture. Don't you be staring at me. In my culture we just bowl."
Merv didn't reply, but after he dismissed him he announced to the batsman: "In my culture we just say beep off."
And of course you can't forget Ian Healy's legendary comment which was picked up by the Channel 9 microphones when Arjuna Ranatunga called for a runner on a particularly hot night during a one-dayer in Sydney: "You don't get a runner for being an overweight, unfit, fat beep!"
