The men who play the game..!

Now that India’s won against Sri Lanka, and the nation’s got back some little faith in their erratic cricketers, I thought I’d crack a few cricket jokes, just for fun:  "Ever heard about the mother who asked that her son be excused from playing cricket? I don't want him mixing with those men on the field," said the mother, "I distinctly heard him telling me that the man in the white coat was a vampire!"
Here’s another, “Just before a match, the coach received a message in his office, "There's an umpire down here with two friends. Wants to know if they can come in."
"No," replied the coach, "the man's obviously lying."
"How do you make that out?"
"Whoever heard of an umpire with two friends!"
There was a long drought in Central Africa. The witch doctor had tried all his rainmaking voodoo dances, but to no avail. One of the elders observed that rain was never a problem in England, so why not send the witch doctor to London to learn the secret. Off he went to England, learned the secret, and returned to the tribe. He informed the leaders that these crazy white men had a big field enclosed by a white picket fence. In the middle were two lots of sticks driven into the ground. Two men, each with a club, stood next to these sticks and waited for a lot of other men to spread themselves all over the field. Then two more men, wearing black trousers, four sweaters and six hats, came out to keep a close watch on the men with the clubs. Then one man got a red rock and threw it at one of the fellers with a club. AND DOWN CAME THE RAIN..!
Heard about the cricketer who went to a psychiatrist?  He told the doctor, 'It's terrible. I can't score runs, I'm a terrible bowler, and I can't hold a catch. What can I do?' So the doctor told him, 'Get another job'. "I can't," shouted the cricketer, "I'm playing for India tomorrow!"
Now I know with these jokes there’s many of my readers who are going to say, “Bob, stop laughing at our cricketers!” And you know what I’m going to say to them, “Hey guys lets start laughing at all you guys who’ve made these men of clay into demigods..!”
Because as I watch their antics outside the field, there behavior and lifestyle, most of them, not all, I realize they need to be lifted down from their pedestal, a notch or two..!
