The Bad Shot Hall of Fame

KungFu_Kallis · 03-09-2012, 04:13 AM

As inspired by Suresh Raina's wild charge to Jeetan Patel on 0 with India needing 100 to win in a Test match with 6 wickets remaining. Missed the ball by about 4 inches and clean bowled. Photo included.

Definitely deserved. Couldn't hope for the inaugural entry to be awarded to a more fitting ****.

Jager · 03-09-2012, 04:21 AM

Haddin's charge to Philander (I think) during Australia's 47 all out.

Athlai · 03-09-2012, 04:21 AM

Wasc.

KungFu_Kallis · 03-09-2012, 05:10 AM

Haddin's one, definitely.

How about Shane Warne on 99 holing out to deep midwicket off Vettori in the last over of the day in Perth 2001?

Senile Sentry · 03-09-2012, 05:22 AM

Misbah's scoop in the T20 finals 2007 has to take the cake.

I'm sure you can find a few from Brendan McCullum.

Flametree · 03-09-2012, 05:43 AM

For some reason I can only think of English ones...

Mike Gatting's reverse sweep as England were cruising to a World Cup win in '87.

David Gower's flick to fine leg in the last over (was it last ball even?) before lunch in the Ashes test in 1990/91.

I guess leaves don't count, but Strauss's last onfield act as a test player was up there.

I think Tino Best has a contender, doesn't he?

Pup Clarke · 03-09-2012, 05:46 AM

Seem to remember Ramps charging Warne and getting stumped by a mile. Got dogs abuse for that - think it was the 2001 Ashes.

Jnr. · 03-09-2012, 05:53 AM

Shaun Tait walking across his stumps, only to be bowled by Harmison at Trent Bridge 2005 was pretty dreadful.

New Zealand needing 6 runs to tie from the final ball of a World Series Cup match in Melbourne. Against the gentle medium pace of Trevor Chappell, Brian McKechnie plays a perfect forward defense.

Spikey · 03-09-2012, 06:00 AM

i'm sure i labelled some shot played during the SA-ENG series worse than Haddin's shot but i can't for the life of me remember it
