There are gentlemen who were both cricketers and footballers. For example, Denis Compton.

This thread is full of pooves, proving the topic to be on target

1977: As a spectator I once tried to field a ball coming over a boundary rope. It hit me in the face, and I had to be carried to the showers, where cold water was splashed on me - alongside a naked Viv Richards. I have seen Viv Richards' bum.

lucky bastard...

Jarvis, you are a stupid, uneducated cnut...

I'm sure that a lot of the posters slagging cricket would think otherwise if they had to face a crazed fast bowler trying to knock your head off with a 150kph thunderbolt.

really?

you've faced up against some of the fastest bowlers in the world?

played top level cricket have you?

More dangerous playing against an amateur bowler, they can't control the release of the ball and just fling it as fast as they can. A pro very seldom aims a beamer at your noggin

Talking about Jupiters thunderbolt.
Re a cricket ball, played in the manchester leagues, recieved. A beamer at head height seemed pretty quick to me.
