Bumble's Favourite Sledge, from 'Last in the Tin Bath'

best sledge I've ever heard was when England were in Australia first Test match Brisbane and in the second innings England amass 517 for one and the crowd of gone probably olds about 38,000 nothing Brisbane they'd all gone and it just looked out from our commentary position that all the crowd had turned up as plastic seats that's all we could see plastic seats now if you've got thirty odd thousand or at the MCG you've got ninety five thousand there's just a drawn from the crowd if it's empty and there's one fellow wants to show everybody on the ground he is him five hundred and seventeen for one cooks two hundred and I don't know how many Ricky Ponting is captain and he sets this field and from our commentary position we will look at the field there's a slip there's a gully there's a distance it up and we're counting them off there's only ten and so off microphone where's the other one missing where's you and if you look closely there's a little fella stored by the non striking batsman it's a ridiculous fielding position so there's if you can bear with me there's the umpire does this field there and then the non striking batsman it's as if there were three of them all the hands and there he is down like this this field that I think he's there and just at that moment a fella from the crowd shouts out to Ricky Ponting good thinking Ricky the last cats that went to selling it on as a hungry years ago there's bound to be another one soon best lady I've ever heard nobody on the field could move they're all idiots collapsing about you
