Freddy Trueman to a youngster who let a ball go through his legs...
"You should have done what your mother should have done - close her legs"
He's fat, he's round, he bounces on the ground, Shane Warne, Shane Warne.

Mate, if you turn the bat over, you'll see the instructions on the back!

Ian Healy Vs a Short chubby batsman:
In one of the tour matches in South Africa, Australia played Hansie Cronje's province. Cronje was at the non strikers end, there was a short chubby batsman on strike.
Ian Healy yelled to Warne, " Bowl a Mars Bar half way down...We'll get him stumped"
The Aussies and Cronje were all in hysterics, all this was before a classic reply from the batsman.
The exact words: "Nah, Boonie (David Boon) fielding at short leg will be onto it before I can move."
Sledging has always been a part of cricket.Even the great WG Grace did it. Once in an exhibition match given out leg-before, he refused to walk and told the umpire: " They came to watch me bat, not you bowl". And the innings continued.
