I'm not sure what rock you live under but the quote has unequivocally been attributed to have occured between Richards and Thomas a good 40-50 years ago.

Ease up on the uncalled for harsh zingers there Don Rickles. This thread is for sharing the best sledges in cricket games, not to brutally sledge other posters.

Like a lot of the so called sledges probably never happened.
From a book by Brian Johnson I read a while back.
Don't know the names, but I heard of a large Australian fast bowler playing in a Yorkshire league as a professional. He had a couple of LBW appeals turned down and unleashed a barrage of bad language at the umpire. At the end of the over, he said " sorry about the language. I guess you are going to report me" ?
The umpire said "Not at all lad. I like a man that speaks his mind."
The next over he bowled, he let loose a massive appeal " Hooooowzaaaaaat????"
"Not out, you fat Aussie bastard"

A friend of mine played as a pro in the Lancashire League in the late 70s and early 80s, against the likes of Andy Roberts, Michael Holding and others. He said they'd hit you on the body and just stand there and stare. They never said a word - didn't need to.
i like the one dr turf said the other day.
it went along the lines of this actress who was notoriously bad at acting but whose husband owned a theatre or could pay for her to lead was doing an anne frank performance and by the 2nd time the nazis come looking for her a bloke from the crowd yells "SHE'S IN THE ATTICT!!!"

Mark Waugh: “* me, look who it is. Mate, what are you doing out here?There’s no way you’re good enough to play for England.”
James Ormond: “Maybe not, but at least I’m the best player in my family.”
Mark Waugh: "I remember you from a couple of years ago. You were s**t then and you're *en useless now!".
Adam Parore: "Yeah that's me. And I remember you were dating that old, ugly ****. I see you've married her now. You dumb campaigner".
The Viv Richards one has had about 1,000 incarnations. I remember hearing it as 'it's red and has 6 stitches in it' *whack* 'well you know what it looks like, how about you go and find it?'.

On an umpiring note, Phil Tufnell said that on his first tour here he asked an Aussie umpire how many balls were left in the over in a tour game, the Ump said "Count them yourself you Pommie campaigner".

Jamie Siddons fielding in the slips in a grade cricket game in Adelaide. Batsman was blocking the s**t out of it.
Siddons - C'mon mate, it's not a test match
Batsman - Yeah, if it was you wouldn't be here

It was actually Mark Waugh and apparently he took about 5 minutes taking guard.

Occassionally names get added to stories to make them more interesting. Better if a Waugh said it than some grade nobody that no one's heard of

Cant remember who the commentator was but before one of the worlds fastest bowler competitions in the 70s they heard Safraz Nawaz had been invited to compete and suggested they were going to need to time him with a ' sun dial '
