Worst Delivery Ever

Post by Guest on Mon 10 Nov 2008, 09:25

In the light of Cameron White's recent little boo boo, which is the worst delivery you have ever seen?

Harmison's Gabba travesty is obviously a given . . .

Harmison didn't trust Geraint's keeping so he was aiming for Flintoff, nothing wrong with that. Cam White has actually delivered two lots of four wides. Pretty ordinary for a slow bowler.

"Bowled" deliberately no doubt in order to ensure that the bookies collected on the fixed result.

Bucky's mum . . . about 30 years ago, I guess. Should have aborted, methinks.

Chris Matthews and Johnny Watkins would have a couple of runners each in this event, although it's hard to pin it down to one particular ball.

Craig McDermott's 'warm-up' ball first up on day 3 at MCG 94-95 to Graeme Gooch, a slow hip-high full-toss which Graeme gently patted back where it came from, would have been the worst ball I remember to take a wicket..

Merv's back of the hand slower ball that Chris Broad let crash into his stumps ....and caused him to keep bowling for the rest of his career even though no one ever looked like being "fooled" by it again...

Would be another candidate for "worst ball to get a wicket"

true....same ball would also be in the running for 'longest time taken to travel length of pitch'.

Sreesanth's beamer. Sreesanth's massive no ball bouncer.

The height of cowardice.

Not a test match, but Richard Snell's attempted last ball of the match some years ago in a one day semi-final for Transvaal against Natal, who needed seven runs off one ball. Snell bowled a no-ball, which Jonty Rhodes hit for a four - and followed it up with a ball that was hit for a six. Twisted Evil

Who bowled that double-bouncer that Bichel muscled over the long-on fence?
