They will bounce back, funny still. First the aussies say Bang...shouldn''t be in the top league then they get beaten by them. <
>I remember when Sri Lanka were the easy beats, new teams will only get better by playing the top teams.<

Heres some sledges from times gone by,<
><
>1. Rod Marsh & Ian Botham: <
>When Botham took guard in an Ashes match, Marsh welcomed him to the <
>wicket with the immortal words: "So how''s your wife & my kids?" <
><
>2. Robin Smith & Merv Hughes: <
>During 1989 Lords Test, Hughes said to Smith after he played & missed: <
>"You can''t f*cking bat". Smith to Hughes after he smacked him to the <
>boundary: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can''t f*cking bat & you <
>can''t f*cking bowl." <
><
>3. Merv Hughes & Javed Miandad: <
>During 1991 Adelaide Test, Javed called Merv a fat bus conductor. A few <
>balls latter Merv dismissed Javed: "Tickets please", Merv called out as <
>he ran past the departing batsman. <
><
>4. Merv Hughes & Viv Richards: <
>During a test match in the West Indies, Hughes didn''t say a word to Viv, <
>but continued to stare at him after deliveries. "This is my island, my <
>culture. Don''t you be staring at me. In my culture we just bowl." Merv <
>didn''t reply, but after he dismissed him he announced to the batsman: <
>"In my culture we just say f*ck off." <
><
>5. Ian Healy & Arjuna Ranatunga <
>Healy''s legendary comment which was picked up by the Channel Nine <
>microphones when Ranatunga called for a runner on a particularly hot <
>night during a one dayer in Sydney... "You don''t get a runner for being <
>an overweight, unfit, fat c*nt!!!" <
><
>6. Shane Warne & Daryll Cullinan: <
>As Cullinan was on his way to the wicket, Warne told him he had been <
>waiting two years for another chance to humiliate him. "Looks like you <
>spent it eating," Cullinan retorted. <
><
>7. Glenn McGrath & Eddo Brandes: <
>After Brandes played & missed at a McGrath delivery, the Aussie bowler <
>politely enquired: "Oi, Brandes, why are you so fat?" "Cos every time I <
>f*ck your wife she gives me a biscuit," Brandes replied. <
><
>8. Ricky Ponting & Shaun Pollock: <
>After going past the outside edge with a couple of deliveries, Pollock <
>told <
>Ponting: <
>"It''s red, round & weighs about 5 ounces." <
>Unfortunately for Pollock, the next ball was hammered out of the ground. <
>Ponting to Pollock: "You know what it looks like, now go find it." <
><
>One other, although not really a sledge. My fav, <
><
>Merv Hughes was playing for Australia against a South African provincial <
>side during a tour to SA. Hansie Cronje was facing him on a totally flat <
>deck and belting fours and sixes from every one of Hughes'' overs. After <
>Cronje hit Hughes for six for about the 8th time, Big Merv ran down the <
>pitch, let out a huge fart and said "Try and hit that for six". It was <
>about 5 minutes before everyone was composed enough to continue the <
>game. <
