Post by Jiminee »

Just saw this headline on Cricinfo and had a giggle, very poor choice of words when referring to a South African captain, one day cricket and a major international tournament.
To be fair though Hansie is not alleged to have bet on the games himself, just made it easier for his 'handlers' to do so :lol:

I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

Not quite in the league of the famous WWII headline:
