batsmen quotes

How on earth are the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Governor of the Bank of England†to be taken seriouslyagainst that kind of background noise? It is rather like sending your opening batsmen to the crease, only for them to find, the moment the first balls are bowled, that their bats have been broken before the game by the team captain.

-Howe, Baron

The really great batsmen fall into two categories.One comes to the wicket saying to the bowlers 'I am going to slaughter you'. The other comes to the wicket saying 'You can't get me out'.

-Travers, Ben
