Do not know where this originated from, but it really is a classic.


Subject: FW: Glenn McGrath - Sledge - A classic


For true aficionados of the sledge.....


TRUE STORY

The scene: Australia v Zimbabwe

McGrath was bowling to Eddo Brandes, the portly Zimbabwean.
First he was nicked over slip for 4 and next was slashed through
cover for 4.
McGrath glared at him and said "Why are you so fat", to which the
quick and very Zimbabwean style reply came "Because everytime I f***
your wife she gives me a biscuit".

Apparently all the Aussies were rolling around with laughter.

Best sledge I've heard was from Inzamam to Brad WIlliams where he said "I thought you'd turn them more at your pace"

There was a time Viv (Richards) was playing for some English County side and some no-name pace bowler passed the edge of his bat twice. Frustrated, the bowler went up to Viv and said, "In case you don't know, it's red, it's round, it's made of leather and it weighs about 5 ounces."

The very next ball, Viv drove the delivery right out of the stadium and into some lake which sat adjacent to the ground.

Viv then went up to the bowler and quipped back, "Son, since you know what it looks like, you go and find it!"
