Answer 3

"They've brought out the heavyweight umpires today ... and they don't come much more heavyweight than Darrell."

Jonathan Agnew with some less than flattering observations about Darrell Hair's waistline "I definitely chucked a few but the umpires didn't pick it up and there were no TV replays. On matting wickets, an offspin chuck got a lot of wickets."Incoming ICC president Percy Sonn on his days as a club cricketer

Answer 5

This quote is said to have been by commentator Brian Johnston when West Indies bowler M. Holding was about to deliver to P. Willey of England, the quote:

"The batsmens Holding, the bowlers Willey"

Answer 6

Since you asked this in the cricket category, I presume that you wanted the best quote related to cricket from the answerers. Well, my favourite quote in cricket is:

"The real adjustment is in the mind" -Sourav Ganguly on his comeback.

Coming back to IPL, I wish that he makes that sort of "adjustment" in his mind, and makes a comeback possible for KKR.
