New batsman
The batsman was new to the side, and in his first innings he did
so badly that the crowd began
to slow hand-clap and barrack him. Things got worse. The language got more
and more abusive, his
play-more inept, and finally he was out. As he dashed for the pavilion,
rotten fruit and eggs were
thrown at him, but he managed to gain the- safety of the dressing-room,
where
the captain was waiting for him.
'Blimey!' panted the batsman, 'they don't like that umpire, do they?'
