jGower's Goss - Retired Hurt

Bazmario - Jersey 2002
If losing his wallet and getting blown out wasn't enough, he only had to go and spill claret all over Jersey's finest cricket strip. After a couple of dropped catches, the boy finally got well behind one and, yes, put it down again. In the process the top of his middle finger flew off and he was carted off to hospital. His involvement in the tour was subsequently limited to drinking muckies. Nothing new there then.

Timmy F - Cheltenham 2000
As a batsmen of some calibre, he's faced some fiery bowling in his time. But nothing compared with the hostility he was confronted with during this game. Coming in in the middle order, Jnr had defended stoutly against everything thrown at him - by the NINE-YEAR-OLD bowler. So when the 'paceman' lofted one up it was time to go on the attack and stick the ball in cow corner. Instead, he top edged it into his lip. A trip to hospital and several stitches later, Jnr looked like he'd gone 10 rounds with Joe Bugner. He's never been the same player since.

Bagsmore - Cheltenham 2000
If ever there was a man who wanted to prove he bled claret and black, it was this man. Batting on a minefield of a wicket, he was virtually k.o'd by a ball that shot up off a length and struck him on the temple. He was escorted off the pitch to recuperate, with his legs virtually giving way beneath him. In the meantime the Cavs innings was going from bad to worse, with wickets tumbling at quite a rate. Enter Bags to save the day. Despite the hazy head, he declared himself fit for action and returned to the crease, where upon he notched his highest Cavs total. Respect.
