Quotes:

I cannot for the life of me see why the umpires, the only two people on a cricket field who are not going to get grass stains on their knees, are the only two people allowed to wear dark trousers.
View quotes by Katharine Whitehorn

Many continentals think life is a game; the English think cricket is a game.
View quotes by George Mikes

Gamesmanship, banter, trash talk, sledging... whatever you call it, has been part of cricket for a long time. We will play hard to win and anybody who plays us will be tested both physically and mentally. If they aren't up to it, we'll win easily.
View quotes by Shane Warne

In the bigger scheme of things it is one of the best things that has happened in international cricket for a long time. [on losing to England at Edgbaston, 2005 Ashes]
View quotes by Justin Langer

Australia don't look at it like that. They make winning a good habit in both forms of the game and that's why they've won the last two World Cups and been world champions at Test cricket for the last decade or more
View quotes by Geoff Boycott

It doesn't matter whether it's cricket, rugby union, rugby league - we all hate England. It's time to get square and knock them off in Marseille [Ozzy lost again]
View quotes by John O'Neill

His game embraced a contempt for his fate, a fomaing fury, because to him cricket was a game of kill or be killed, a street fighter in which it was left to the umpires to keep peace [on Viv Richards]
View quotes by Peter Roebuck

It's all good that we earn good money but there is just too much cricket
View quotes by Shahid Afridi

This is absolutely sensational. I was speechless when it all happened yesterday and I'm virtually speechless again today. I'm taking it all in and, I've got to say, this is great for the game of cricket. [on his Ashes-winning innings at the Oval 2005]

Somerset's rent-a-quote, Peter Anderson, enjoyed another opportunity to stick the boot in, accusing the would-be reformers of knowing nothing about the game. It is undeniable, of course, that an ex-copper from Hong Kong should know more about cricket than the combined experience of two England captains.
View quotes by Mike Atherton

In real cricket, the player who has developed imagination and skill mkaes the game, but in the one day match it is the other way round. The match dictates to the player.
View quotes by Brian Close

We batted really poorly after lunch. England played well right through the Test and kept the pressure on. England played some very good cricket and I congratulate them - they fully deserved to win
View quotes by Rahul Dravid

Good luck to them. While we're not allowed to do it in New Zealand, they're obviously allowed to do it over here. Our policy is to produce the best cricket wickets possible, not ones that suit the home team. [on sour grapes over the wickets the games were played on]
View quotes by John Bracewell

This has been the most exhilarating, entertaining, tension-packed series there has ever been. It's a big statement to make but, let's be honest, we're talking about modern cricket here in the modern era - nothing matches this in any way. To witness and experience this has been a dream. The future looks incredibly rosey for England. [2005 Ashes]

When drugs are used in any sport it is not a great day for that sport and this not a great day for cricket
