It is sad that Holding is retiring but I think he deserves to rest. He leaves me with one of my all time BBC commentary gems with either Brian Johnson or Blowers gifting us this classic line from a Windies vs England test , “The bowler’s Holding the batsman’s Willy”😜 Happy retirement Whispering Death. _________________ Don't confuse your current path with your final destination.

Oh thanks of sorts Donny for that! I stand corrected like thousands of others must have been. I was pretty certain that he said it so there you go.
I wonder if the famous sledging between Merve and Viv was also a made up joke? The one where Viv plays and misses 3 deliveries prompting Merve to sarcastically say “It’s a red and round ball”. So Viv duly hits the next delivery out of the ground and quips back “you know what it looks like, go fetch it” _________________ Don't confuse your current path with your final destination.

Aha... Didn't catch this post at the time...
Will this be the record for the longest time between Tests in the one Test series? |
