Famous Cricket Quotes

[Jersey #10]

Commit all your crimes when Sachin is batting. They will go unnoticed because even the Lord Is watching. -Placard at the SCG as Sachin was making his century,2008 January You might pitch a ball on the off stump and think you have bowled a good ball and he walks across and hits it for two behind midwicket. His bat looks so heavy but he just waves it around like it's a toothpick. - Brett Lee, on Sachin Tendulkar's batting, 1999 Sachin is an attacker. He has much more power than Sunny. He wants to be the one to set the pace. He has to be on top. That's the buzz about him. - Jeff Thompson Tendulkar is the most complete batsman I have stood behind. I saw the hundred in Perth on a bouncy pitch with Hughes, McDermott and Whitney gunning for him he only had 60-odd when No 11 came in. I've seen him against Warne too. - Ian Healy Sachin's the best. I've had this view since I saw him score that hundred in Sydney in 1992. He's the most composed batsman I've ever seen. - Mike Coward The pressure on me is nothing as compared to Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin, like God, must never fail. The crowd always expects him to succeed and it is too much pressure on him - Mark Waugh I Was fielding in the covers Tendulkar came out to bat in his debut Test at Karachi. I still remember Waqar Younis was at his peak form at that time. Tendulkar tried to drive Waqar through the covers off his veryfirst ball in Test cricket but was beaten all ends up. But I walked to captain Imran Khan and told him 'this kid looks very good' and Imran agree with me. - Abdul Qadir I think he is marvellous. I think he will fit in whatever category of Cricket that has been played or will be played, from the first ball that has ever been bowled to the last ball that's going to be. He can play in any era and at any level. I would say he's 99.5% perfect. - Viv Richards on Sachin Tendulkar Today, he showed the world why he is considered the best batsman around. Some of the shots he played were simply amazing. Earlier, opposing teams used to feel that Sachin's dismissal meant they could win the game. Today, I feel that the Indian players, too, feel this way. - Wasim Akram India's fortune will depend on how many runs the little champion scores. There is no doubt Tendulkar is the real thing. - Sunil Gavaskar He has defined cricket in his fabulous, impeccable manner. He is to batting what Shane Warne is to bowling. - Richie Benaud Sachin is cricket's God! - Barry Richards Harder he works, the luckier he gets. - Ian Chappell Technically, you can't fault Sachin. Seam or spin, fast or slow nothing is a problem. - Geoffrey Boycott

Actually I think it was Victor Richardson who asked "which one of you bastards called this bastard a bastard?", but I'm not 100% sure. Somehow I can't imagine Woodfull using that language.

[Mr. Wicket]

Actually I think it was Victor Richardson who asked "which one of you bastards called this bastard a bastard?"' date= but I'm not 100% sure. Somehow I can't imagine Woodfull using that language.

From what I've read, most of the best-informed authors and most heavily researched books on the subject indicate it was Richardson.

Shahrukh (quoting Shahrukh from an interview) "Que: Who do you think as most important celebrity ? Shahrukh: There was a big party where stars from bollywood and cricket were invited. Suddenly, there was a big noise, all wanted to see approaching Amitabh Bachhan. Then Sachin entered the hall and Amitabh was leading the queue to get a grab of the GENIUS!!"

Mark Waugh always got owned in the sledging battles MARK WAUGH VS ADAM PARORE Mark Waugh: ‘Oh, I remember you from a couple of years ago in Australia. You were **** then, you’re f**king useless now.’ Parore, turning around, replied: ‘Yeah, that’s me and when I was there you were going out with that old, ugly **** and now I hear you’ve married her. You dumb c**t.’

"I intend to make them grovel" - Tony Greig before the Windies tour of England in 1976. "This was the greatest motivating speech the England captain could have given to any West Indian team." - Viv Richards England went on to lose the five match series 0-3. "Did I entertain?" -Lara asked that ridiculous Q after his final Intl. match 'He didn't quite manage to get his leg over...' - Jonathan Agnew

After an attempted hook Ian Botham spun and became unbalanced as he tried to step over his wickets to avoid standing on them - but in narrowly failing to do so Beefy brushed the leg-stump with his inner thigh and was out. Agnew's gag, while sat alongside Brian Johnston in the radio booth, was the cause of much juvenile sniggering. 'Do stop it Aggers!' Johnston was heard to splutter in the background while struggling to stifle his laughter. Reduced to tears the pair were barely able to talk for several minutes.It was reported that traffic on British motorways came to a standstill as commuters were forced to stop their cars due to fits of hysterical laughter while listening to the radio show. Not everyone was amused though and they were, in true schoolboy fashion, banned from commentating together again.

"The bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey" - Brian Johnston, former BBC commie

"The direction of that finger being pointed, was more towards the presidents box. If you look at that angle, I know the Sydney cricket ground well, not only have I batted on that but I know where the boxes are. That is more the presidents box was right behind where Symonds was it's only when Ishant Sharma started running ahead and still started doing that and then the angle changed towards the dressing room. But when it first stated the presidents box was right behind, not the dressing room. That's my view piont." - Ravi Shastri on Sharma's send off

I didn't follow much of it because it kind of clashed with my party events in Jamaica. Chris Gayle had better things to do than watch the Ashes Gayle's a legend :laugh:

"Has your goalkeeping improved?" The first thing Wasim Akram asked Kamran Akmal when the latter paid him a visit Andrew Strauss to Paul Harris "Harris, can you turn a doorknob?" Graeme Smith "Perhaps Afridi didn't appreciate the lunch he was given in Australia." Bishen Singh Bedi at it again "What is a doosra? The other man in a woman's life is a doosra. The other woman in a man's life is doosri. So basically, doosra is unethical, immoral and illegal." MS Dhoni I have joked before that there is a good chance that I might retire before Tendulkar.
