A marvellous opportunity has arisen to purchase these limited edition pieces of memorabilia from the ICC World Cup. There will only be 500 of these released worldwide so be in quick. The picture captures Mark Boucher in a splendid forward defensive stroke and Lance Klusener happily leaning on his bat at the non-strikers end, as the last ball of the 45th over of South Africa's innings is bowled in the final pool match against Sri Lanka.

It captures perfectly the moment when the South African management had a brain meltdown and assured the batsmen that 229 was enough for victory, when they needed 230 to advance to the Super Six. The picture is titled "World Cup Agony Mark III" and will sell at $1000 + p & p.

For an extra $500 you can also buy "Yes, Yes, Nooooo!!!!", the limited edition picture from the 1999 World Cup capturing the sheer confusion of the moment when Allan Donald had a brain explosion and forgot how to run.

Why not buy the boxed set of "South African Cricket - Why we have never won the Cricket World Cup" which includes the previously unreleased "World Cup Agony Mark I", a picture which captures the 'stunned mullet' look on the face of South African batsman Brian McMillan after the big screen at the SCG flashed up the revised target they were chasing for victory vs. England in the 1992 World Cup Semi-Final was 22 runs off 1 ball.

This opportunity to re-live the greatest moments in South African Cricket history is very limited so hurry while stocks last.

For those looking to enhance the pain, try ordering "World Cup (Rugby) Agony Mark II", the limited edition shot of Australian fly-half Stephen Larkham's magical 50 yard drop goal struck at Twickenham in the 1999 RWC semi-final which knocked the then-champions out of the tournament.

Ah yes, some marvellous pictures that, and to order your copy now, log into www.southafricasfunniestworldcupstuffups.com.au

The yes, yes, no print was actually previously done under the title of "Oh F*ck it"

Glad I didn'y buy one of the bats that wre signed.
They would be worth Bugger all now that the squad that played are not the ones that signed the Bat & poster.
