Tubby Tormentor
Cut in from Adelaide, Australia
In close-up the Tubby Tormentor, gloating at the incoming English bat.
The packed slip cordon includes giants of modern Oz cricket: two gum-chewing Waughs, the Hayden, Punter in at gulley. Bizarrely a helmeted handlebar moustache at short leg has afficionados of the BB wondering what Butch is doing at Adelaide. Only those such as Maldodor i.e. in the real know realise it is of course none other than D Boon who occupies the Brian Close position.
The Tormentor ambles up to the stumps.
The ball rips out of the Tormentor’s hand, lands in the rough created by Pigeon et al and cuts back in off the broken surface – ridiculously close to the outside edge of the English bat and the leg stump.
To cries of “Nice bowling, Shane!” the commentary team can be heard:
Well, Geoffrey, reckon that was the top spinner.
