another classic from the Moustachaoed macho man
Merv Hughes v Javed Miandad
The big fella popped up again with another classic, this time in the 1991 Adelaide Test against Pakistan.
Hughes was less than impressed when Javed called him a "fat bus conductor" as the pair squared up to one another.
A few balls later, Hughes got his man and as Javed walked past, could not resist shouting "Tickets, please!"

A true topic for the afternoon:
*Viv Richards v Greg Thomas*
This incident took place during a county championship match between
Glamorgan and Somerset.
Glamorgan paceman Thomas had beaten the bat a couple of times and
informed Richards: "It's red, round and weighs about five ounces, in
case you were wondering."
The very next ball was given the King Viv treament and smashed out of
the ground, into a river - at which point Richards piped up: "Greg, you
know what it looks like. Now go and find it."
