The captain called the batsman into his room."We got some very tough matches coming up" he said"and I wanted to talk to you because we need someone with an Iron nerve,a strong constitution and a great skill in the side.
That's why I want you to resign."
In school, the teacher asked one of his brightest pupils to spell "bowling". Back came the answer: "B-O-E-LI-N.""That" he said "is the worst spell of bowling I have ever seen."
A slip fieldsman had a particularly depressing day during which he dropped no less than five catches all of the same bowler. After the game he was talking to the bowler when he broke of and looked at his watch. "I must go" he said "I have a train to catch." The bowler looked at him bitterly. "Let's hope you have better luck with that, then."
The bowler had a dreadful match which cost his side the game. All week long he practiced hard for the next game. During the following match, he said to the captain. "Notice any difference?"
The captain looked at him, thoughtfully. "You've had your hair cut, haven't you?"
In the absence of the regular Umpire, the village team was making do with a local farmer, who knew nothing about the rules. After the third ball of the over, the entire field turned round with a tremendous yell of "HOWZAT!"
The Umpire paused. "Well, how would I know?" he said "His leg was in the way!"
