"Not alot of people will ever understand this or experience it. This is not your "crush", your highschool sweet heart love, your fairy tale ending, your soul mate.

Dean Jones on Dominic Cork - "There's one ugly incident that has not gone past the dressing room door until now. It happened in 1997, when I was playing for Derbyshire against the touring Australians. I'd had some stern words with Derby problem child, Dominic Cork, about his attitude and fitness. After we'd spoken, and while I was in the middle batting, he proceeded to distribute the contents of my coffin - five bats, many pairs of gloves and a host of other pieces of equipment - to a heap of kids, leaving me with nothing.

He then proceeded to move my car from the car park to a street some two kilometres away. I informed police, thinking it was stolen, and it was found 48 hours later. Suffice to say I didn't stay too long with that club."

Rants

Because a celebrity or group of celebrities does something, does it make what they're doing notable? While wikipedia relies on widespread coverage, if a media which has a hissy fit at anything a celebrity does reports widely on it, how does that still make what they're doing notable?

Before the 2010 season, Hampshire County Cricket Club went to Caribbean before the start of the season: the result was a shocking start to that season, they ended it just about staying in Division One of the County Championship. Prior to the 2011 season they went back to the Caribbean, when they returned they started the season awfully and ended up getting relegated from Division One. Now, perhaps those that are logical amongst us can start to see a pattern emerging here, but I'll press on. Prior to this, the 2012 season, yep, you've guessed it, Hampshire went back to the Caribbean once again, upon their return they once again started the season poorly. It's obvious that going on a jolly to the Caribbean before a season isn't working in getting the team prepared for the coming season, so why keeping wasting time and money when practising on seaming, swinging green pitches you're likely to come across in England is far better preparation than playing on slow, low, dead flat Caribbean pitches. Seriously.

Marlon Samuels got off rather lightly for letting bookmakers know team info in 2007: he should have been banned for life. Zero tolerance to cheats and frauds.
