Match Report (the strangest you'll ever read so please do) by Mark 'the Tooth' Pereira

Guy's I'm the dentist, not sure if the gas has set things right...

Game of All between the legs – Balls ( if you are given to think otherwise , one per innings constitute two)
Away to Nutley Hall and i was given the coordinates, never looks the same walking and driving as was the case with the game being cricket and not so as well, Billy the predator duly won the toss and using his worldly knowledge of the skies the ocean and the wind … the cricket pitch was just a piece of drab earth to be stood on and smile at folks who came by 9 in all err 10 in the final count. Did I say he chose to bat and remind the Tooth twice that number 4 it is all the while. One look and the portly umpire licked his lips as if to say team your balls are mine if they between the lips err legs I mean, not sure if he saw the feminine side of Smiley Smithy, gave him one look and said off you go, love your legs and now you know, LBW for sure. Lewy – the hustler kept his legs to himself and did not flash, kept ticking till Wigley – the smile could handle it no more, tried a trick from down under with bat no longer than mongoose , with the snake having slithered away, the mongoose no longer had its sway, Wigley went his merry way. Lewy the hustler let the tooth know of the bite in the pitch and as the tooth reminded himself one tooth at a time (toot toot), a run here and a boundry there The tooth got picky and placed one over the cuckoo’s nest only to be denied a by a couple of fingers which picked the ball, the red cherry whatever.Billy the Predator struts along unseen unheard got busy only to find no one really to pick on, chugging the scores along while the hustlers engine took time to chug along and when he did Nutley looked like they needed a few more legs than they hid – the umpires included (LBW's) for once the umpires did not have to decide, the ball stopped on lewy, took the edge , wow the ball was not between the legs, hustler out 51 short of a deserved century.Out came the charger-Merrill, the lonely phone left behind, he charged a few only to find himself powerless to stop the catch . if there is one we like to see walk in with a bat on his shoulder then it was so Dylan the slinger, if he sees things right, the ball is always in flight however it was the predator who swung the willow to the cow corner only for the ball to find timber. Alfie the slider was next with plans of sliding the ball all over the land, little did he know of the umpires plans , his plans went sliding down the leg (LBW I know for sure said the umpire , out you slide through the door). Mr Magician Bowen tried his luck with and a duck though I know for sure a single was his for a buck, Kyle the Slayer joined when things were grim…when the going gets tough, the tough get going, the slinger got going …the umpire said nothing, he was not LBW for sure, last heard on the case is that it’s been referred to the SNCC house of commons special cases tribunal – Good luck slinger with that.

So with 124 to protect Smiley Smithy kept smiling as Nutley kept swishing and fishing as Dylan slid one through the door , the smiley having rattled the feathers, Bowen the Magician conjured another caught between the balls, I mean err the man boob, the openers picked the best spot to be, on the sidelines letting everyone what not to be.The Nutley middle order hung on to dreams they thought ought to be. Billy the predator thought otherwise handed the ball to Alfie the slider, he slid on a fast one, ouch that hurt and was out nursing the shoulder, tooth wanting to complete the over the preadtor took over though not for long before the Tooth who duly had couple between the legs, another smartly stumped by the huster and best one caught between the legs, the umpires thought it prudent to close shop and any ball between the legs was neatly slid down the leg, Hows that LBW ? no LBW what LBW. The hustler could take it now no more when he let one go between the legs or on the leg, the story of Legs came to the fore, Nutley hung on till they reached the shore not before they were really sore. SNCC lost by a hairs breadth or so, their effort won them so much more. Cheers SNCC.
