Some great catches I've just come across

Curtly Ambrose

Alan Lamb and Greg Matthews (plus Bill Athey - but it's not that great)

Some guy called "Prangers". (I put this one up for the calm and considered commentary from the cameraman - which includes a great "reverant pause")

Brett Lee sells Weetbix (not Weetabix - we call them Weetbix in Australia)

Merv Hughes in beer commercial (no really)

Richie Benaud sledges Warne! (you have to hear it to believe it)

Love that one

Not cricket, but a very camp referee. What is he thinking?

 Somehow Steve Waugh manages to make this catch look easy. Tony Greig loses it in the commentary box as he takes this bloody fine effort

Balls. The Fish's effort in Lodi was better. And I bet Waugh didn't have anyone saying "backing the ball" either.

You may be right. It is possible that Tony Greig (who can clearly be heard climaxing 12 seconds into the Steve Waugh catch - check out how post-coital he sounds during the final 8 seconds) - may have beaten the 10 second barrier if he had witnessed the Steve Fish "backing the ball" Lodi spectacular (which to those who weren't there was a lot better than his "spinning viciously" Vienna disaster)

This has got everything, including some cracking shots and the world's longest boundary.

And a spectator or someone making an absolute tit of themselves biggrin

Not to mention the worst leave by a batsman who has over 50 runs that you will ever see (Ranatunga vs Emburey) and some truly amazing commentary "he may just about not catch it, now!" done in a comedy impersonation of Brad Eve doing a Welsh accent. Love the geezer with the flag, that was utter genius.

The commentary is fantastic. "That was four from the time it left the bat ... A rrrrocket ... Bang!" biggrin

Love the laughing you can just hear after the bloke with the flag stacks it. England players or from the press box? biggrin

Anyone remember this?

the Terry Alderman incident


Alderman dislocated a shoulder here and didn't play again for about 2 years if I remember correctly.

Shamelessly nicked from the Guardian, but if you ain't seen it, the Michael Holding/Brian Close pounding is astonishing stuf. **** me, Holding was quick.
