In a test in 1997 between West Indies and India. Anil kumble was batting and the ball hit him in the 'unmentionables' as Ravi Shastri always puts it. Kumble just went flat on the pitch and lay there on his back for about 5 minutes. Thats the most memorable of such incidents of the millions which keep happening.
West Indian batsman Viv Richards was notorious for punishing bowlers that dared to sledge him. So much so, that many opposing captains banned their players from the practice. However in a county game against Glamorgan, Greg Thomas attempted to sledge him after he had played and missed at several balls in a row. He informed Richards: "It's red, round and weighs about five ounces, in case you were wondering." Richards hammered the next delivery out of the cricket grounds and into a nearby river. Turning to the bowler, he commented: "Greg, you know what it looks like, now go and find it."
