lol I would love to see that, they give Bush some pads and get famous bowler 'Shoaib Akhtar' to come a have a friendly little net with the president for the cameras. Its all going well but he decides to come of his full run up, steaming in with a short effort ball. This would be the last time he would pick up a cricket bat
The US cable network Fox Sports Net ran Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Mark Reynolds in a test on "Sport Science" where he faced a cricketeer. The cricketeer only made 10% of his swings with a baseball pitch and bat; Despite never playing cricket, Reynolds scored 70% in play, easily scoring six runs with his tape-measures. His sweet spot was as big as a basketball hoop compared to what he is used to hitting.
Just after Ian Botham was in the England cricket team that won the Ashes from Australia, Botham's agent brought him to LA, just after the Dodgers won the World Series. The Dodgers put up their third string pitcher, and Botham took a look at the first two pitches, before hitting the third clear into the stands over 350' away. he did that to all the subsequent pitches, with the pitcher trying harder and harder and harder.
Tired of being humiliated, the Dodgers brought in a second-string pitcher. Again Botham looked at the first pitch, and then started hitting this next guy into the stands. So, finally the Dodgers brought in one of their top pitchers. Botham didn't even waste his time examining a pitch - he hit the first one (and all the subsequent ones) straight over the midfield fence, and into the stands.
With instructions apparently to see to it that this 'cricketer' was put in his place, this Dodgers pitcher (who had pitched several victories in the recent World Series) threw everything he had at Botham, who calmly swatted him away, and into the midfield stands, like he was some annoying little fly.
Finally, out of sheer embarrassment, the Dodgers called a halt to proceedings.
Thank god he put his bat down, else he cud have been bowled if he though it as baseball for a second, If it had hapenned like that, America would have rejected cricket, If America rejected cricket, cricket market would not start to prevail in the world's biggest market, If it would have happened like that, cricket would loose its shine over football, If football wins from now, hospitals would have to increase their psychologically ill wards,
