Greatest Batsman

Famous quotes containing the words greatest and/or batsman:

    It is my hope to be able to prove that television is the greatest step forward we have yet made in the preservation of humanity. It will make of this Earth the paradise we have all envisioned, but have never seen.
    —Joseph O’Donnell. Clifford Sanforth. Professor James Houghland, Murder by Television, just before he demonstrates his new television device (1935)

    If the wild bowler thinks he bowls,
    Or if the batsman thinks he’s bowled,
    They know not, poor misguided souls,
    They, too, shall perish unconsoled.
