Most amusing moment on a cricket pitch: Last season, batting at number 2 for Warks U19s, watching the first over to my mate go: play and miss, play and miss, edge through slips for 4, edge to keeper off a no ball, and then being given caught behind when he didn't hit it. This was in a 2-day game and we went on to get 470-6 in the day.
