Cricket

1. 'I just wanted to get in the middle and score the right sort of runs' said during a diarrhoea ridden tour of India

2. 'England have three major problems, they can't bat, they can't bowl and they can't field'

3. 'Tufnell, can I borrow your brain,I am building an idiot'

4. 'I know why he bought a house by the sea, so he'll be able to walk on water'
