cricket heroism at school...
My greatest (only) sporting achievement at school happened thusly:

Ended up bowling against the champion batsman in cricket. He stood there smirking while I took a run up and lobbed the ball and I somehow managed to fall flat on my face in the process. He was so busy cracking up that he didn't notice the ball roll slowly between his legs to hit the stump.
I pretended I'd done it on purpose but everyone knew I didn't and I still got chosen last for team sports.

PS sorry about the garbled version earlier on. My brain is 95% cheese

Cheese
Cheese is good.

That would be a no-ball, so he shouldn't have been given out

Probably so I could be seen to have achieved something.
