Got a Minute
The sarcastic bowler was disgusted by several of the umpire’s decisions.
‘Have you got a minute?’ he asked.
‘Yes,’ said the umpire.
‘Well, tell me all you know about cricket.’

The bowler’s mother watched proudly from the stand. Next to her, a spectator turned to his companion.
‘He’s a good bowler,’ he said, ‘But his length varies.’
‘Don’t be ridiculous,’ interrupted the mother. ‘He’s five foot seven, and always has been!’
I Know His Weakness
The bowlers were getting a terrible roasting from the opposition’s opening batsman.
‘Don’t worry,’ said the cocky young bowler, ‘I know his weakness.’
He bowled three balls and every one was smashed over the boundary.
‘I see what you mean,’ said the captain. ‘He’s got a weakness for sixes!’
