LOL!!! I can actually visualise it. By batting career consisted of coming in at number 11 for a highly depleted Beddington Under 16 side and being bowled by a pea roller for nowt. It was probably my own for fault for grabbing the nearest bat to me which happend to belong to a kid a foot shorter than me and meant i may as well have tried to play with no bat and just my hand. I've got the height to make a decent bowler though. Being six foot four most batsmen have to look up to see the release, down to see the pitch and back up again to see it thingy them in the head. Deadly stuff

If we're going to talk about cricket performances, my last two efforts were about fifteen years ago in an inter office kind of contest. As I hadn't played for about ten years, since school and not much then, I was as amazed as my colleagues by my performance. In my two overs bowling I fell over twice, bowled several wides and took two wickets!!! I think the two batsmen I bowled were to busy falling about laughing at my efforts to hit the thing after I'd actually got it straight! ;D I was really surprised with my batting performance, 25 retired. A few boundaries, but mosty dashed singles and twos. I nearly killed a couple of my fellow batsmen with my hard running between the wickets!! We played again the following year, but alas I couldn't repeat my performance. Only taking one wicket, and then was caught out on the boundary in the grand manor, going for glory for only 10!!
