Cool.. you and I found it at the same time.. you beat me in posting it!

 

Good one. ..and for the record, I have no flippin' idea what "diving towards the wicket" means! I saw some guys playing cricket at a park near where I live for the first time recently. Can't say I remember seeing that "diving" going on.

 

Like a baseball pick-off move...

 

Thanks appreciate you

 

Some people in South Africa refer to this coin as the "Jonty Rhodes" 50 cents.

Oops, intended to post the link, not the video ....

Sorry

 

That's okay, typically they prefer to have the video embedded in the thread rather than a link to it.
