I love that Nasser's instinct is always "that's unlucky" or "that's a tough catch" even when the running is terrible or the fielder turns away from a catch
Love Nas, top bloke.
Professional to the last!
He seems a lovely fella
In all fairness if the fielder turns away from the catch then it is quite a tough catch so he’s not wrong there 😂
So that he looked good during his playing days
The guy coming out to bat in the red coat…priceless!😂
So good haha proper village! 🙌
was playing red ball cricket to be fair to the lad
Looks like the Yorkshire Dales. It can be seriously cold up there early in the season!
What he really needed was wellies.
We were playing in a six-a-side tournament near London, which involved an overnight stay. One of our lads had to pull out on the day we were travelling down but we managed to get a last minute replacement. First game, we asked our replacement why he wasn't getting changed? "Changed into what?" Oh dear! He trots out in what he travelled down in, trainers, jeans, T shirt and a heavy leather jacket - it wasn't even cold but he refused to leave it in the changing room and consequently kept everything he had in the pockets. We bowled first, told this lad to get his over out of the way, his first ball, you could hear everything, keys, change, toothbrush etc, clanking around in his pockets from the boundary - The batsman stopped him in his first run up to enquire what the noise was, we were pissing ourselves. He might have even taken a wicket if I remember rightly? Thanks Darren, what a laugh.
The run out from the boundary. for me, is the best arm I’ve ever seen.
Poor lad! 🤣
I played in a school game around 2008, Bradfield VS Marlborough, we were bowled out for 9. They got 7 consecutive wickets. Incredible scenes.
My first game as a junior coach...I took over mid season, say day 1 was "let's see what we have to work with". All out 9, 10 ducks, 5 sundries (all wides) and the 4 off the bat was nicked, splitting the keeper and first slip at waist height as they looked at each other.
Thats posh cricket too?
@@kc8923 oh yes
😂🎉😂
A double hatrick+1.
Thinking youre gonna be run out while running back towards the bowling end from the outfield is just legendary on a world class level.
Abey Manoj apna kaam kar
Back in 1991, unfortunately before camera phones, we played the 1st round of the Cup away at Halewood, Liverpool. As they were 3 divisions below us, we had them 30-7 on an all-weather wicket. The num9 came out, smashed his first ball down into the ground and it reared up above his head. The none striker, worried about it going onto his stumps cried "Kick it away!". The batter, as he searched for it somewhere in the sky, stumbled towards his stumps and in the process kicked all 3 of them halfway to Manchester! 😂 #hitwicket #30-8 #embarrassing
😂
All we can do is imagine how that would be!!! OH MAN I DEFFO WISH WE HAD CAMERAS BACK THEN
@@abdullahaamir4609 🤣 I was fielding at point, so had the best view... The batter's response was "Oh shit" shoulders slumped and trudged off... Everyone else was on the floor laughing! 🤣
Comments like this 💯
Lol
Aussie here, I love Nass, he’s funny as hell and a great sport.
Well, we know Nas spends all his time watching cricket clips online
Loves it!
Any cricket fan that hasn't discovered some of the amazing channels on youtube for club cricket is missing out!
don't blame him there's lots of gems out there !!!!
I remember seeing a West Indian named Sylvester Clark, many years ago, bowl a ball that was so far outside that the umpire went to signal wide and the batsman (a test batsman at that) was shouldering arms, but the ball came back so much off the pitch that it hit the stumps. Most amazing ball I've ever seen bowled.
These were gold. I love when they realise he hit his own car.
Last one from Broad was hilarious too 😂
2:00 is insane, the way he holds his hands it makes me think he's right-handed too. Mental.
These cricketers belong to a small tribe in a tiny village on the outskirts of England. The village is self sufficient, they learned cricket from their great ancestors. They have never been outside of the village and this is the first time an outsider has been allowed to the village- it was the cameraman as their tribe is not permitted to use technology such as a video camera. Good on them!
Needed everyone's reaction of that funny throwing ball at the feet and then kicking it to the boundary
I was thinking, poor lad, this isn't funny, on that surface, I'm not laughing at thi... Oh hang on 😂😂😂
Priceless when the guy finally throws the ball at his foot and it goes over the line. Had me in stitches 🤣🤣🤣
He's gone full Anti-Taylor - after that slips catch where Tubby kicked it up into his hands.
@@markwestaway7207 There was a Shane Warne slip catch where he inadvertently used his feet, don’t remember when or the oppo.
@@mwoxo, it was Carl Hooper, caught Mark Taylor bowled Michael Bevan in 1996.
this is really funny keep up the good work
Thanks for the support!
I was playing the game in that first clip, it was a very soft wicket and there were 2 old oak trees inside the field you had to play around too 😂
Love that. One of the games I played this season there was a small mausoleum within the boundary, as well as the obligatory trees both inside the boundary, and just outside. The sight screens are often inside, or straddling, the boundary.
@@bengoacher4455 when I was a kid in the 90's, I went to a game with one of my friends because his dad was playing. When we got to the ground we seen that a builder had left a skip in the outfield for a job on a retaining wall near the boundary. They just played on as normal other than the umpire asking them to try to avoid the skip 😂
I would probably call it the softest wicket in the world! 😂
I swear Stuart Broad and Ian Ward have an affinity with each other. They're going to be brilliant on commentary together in the coming years.
Agreed 👊
at 4:28 , that was the type of ball i could bowl . ok, it was the ' only ' ball i could bowl , but at school , it moved, or it didnt , the batters never knew. And when i was around 11 or 12 , we were playing in the semi final of the house cup , and i was the bowler for the second over. Took a wicket with the first three balls. I was stunned , my team was stunned , the opposition were stunned. 4th guy comes in. For a 12 year old, biggest guy on both teams. Walked out , looked at me and said " dont you dare". Ive got a hat trick , what do i care? :) Same ball as the last three, he took a big swing , bye bye stump. He chased me half way back to the pavillion. I was laughing so hard , i couldnt breathe. Well. The next guy comes out , and that was my energy gone. They beat us by one run , or one wicket , cant remember. But i'll never forget that one over.And i still remember his name. :)
I played village cricket , always had a good time post match , unlike football when it was straight home. In the 50's the Lancashire league had many world class players in their ranks , West Indian test players like Sobers . One ex Windie Roy Gilchrist a fast bowler with a fast temper . In his last match against India he would deliberately overstep the crease by yards and deliver a beamer on one occasion hit the batsman on the head knocking his turban off. Image a young kid coming out to face him. But they did without helmets for years. One story a read was regarding the great batsmam Herbert Sutcliffe who was guesting for a league side . He came in and was bowled first ball by Gilchrist . On old women shouted out , we came here to see him bat not your bowling.
Wish we saw Broady react to that swing... Even Jimmy would be shocked
That catch at 01:52 - I was fortunate enough to hold onto one like that a few seasons ago but I banged the back of my head on the ground and gave myself a mild neck strain.
Oh no not idea, but must have been a great catch!
This guy has the technique down, he turns onto his front mid-air
This was brilliant, loved it
I'm loving these vids. With village and pros. Great stuff lads 👍🏻
Epic thanks for watching! Plenty more to come!
0:00 YOU PLAYED A BRILLIANT INNINGS TAMMY JI THAT'S A BRILLIANT DOUBLE CENTURY👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’ve seen some stunning bowling and catches in village cricket.
Just found your channel---this really is funny. Cant wait to see what your channel holds...all the best from Snowdonia North Wales (yes we do have a local team)...you have got my subscription.
Thank you so much, Richard! Really appreciate your support. We’d actually love to visit Snowdonia and make a video about the club, it sounds epic! Could you send us an email? info@cricket-district.com thanks!
@@CricketDistrict Hello there-i have read your kind reply. I am trying my best to send you a email --i am really not good at this "tech" stuff but im doing my best--regards ..Richard.
5:53 The ol Inzy chop😂
This is actually hilarious 😆
Omg Ur so lucky to meet these greats
We are incredibly lucky! Appreciating every opportunity and plenty more to come 🤞
lovely work boys!!!
Thanks for watching!!
The last clip was the best one. Phenomenal effort 😂
So good isn't it! 😅
I’m the ‘batsman’ in that clip. Was the last ball of the innings and thought it would be good for an imran Tahir celebration. Didn’t go down well 😂.
Some absolute classics, made me laugh out loud!!
Can't beat a bit of village cricket!
@@CricketDistrict Wish we'd had mobiles when I was playing and teaching, saw a few classics!

Many years ago one of my team collected his brand new car on the way to a match at Fulbridge Road in Peterborough. He parked the car right behind the pavilion, which he thought would be safe. But then during his own innings he smashed a straight six which landed and dented his, barely 3 hour old car!
Incredible 😂 Poor guy!
In a school U13 match, one of our players hit a 6 which smashed the window of his dad's car.
Playing 3rds many years ago. Our captain was getting married at 4pm that day about half an hour from the ground, so opened the batting, proceeded to go ballistic and made 100 in the first hour, including a 6 onto the bonnet of his Dad's car, who was driving him to the wedding.
That catch they compared to Ben Stokes is actually more like one a young Matthew Hayden took on his first Ashes tour in a one-day match. Full stretch on the boundary.
They all knew that one legendary video
That was so funny Thank you!
Thanks for watching! 👊
2:35.It's almost as if he has made up his mind that the ball has to cross the boundary. I will not settle for anything less.😂😂😂
4:30 Its like I am watching the replay of Shubman Gill leave and bowled by Boland
7:08 As-if he's hit his own car there, what a blinder.
Really enjoyed watching that ....
Awesome, thank you!
4:41 I actually bowled one like this , didn't realise the swing until afterwards by the keeper! I was given the video by the oppo of it . Cherished!
It is the umpire's smile when he signals for a six when Asif breaks his own car window!
Keep up for the Ashes
We're so excited!
Remember watching a game on the local park. The best bowler by far was a demon girl about 15. One batsman exhorted her "Don't do 'em hard" (she ignored him) and another fielder dropped a catch because he couldn't transfer his cigaretter quickly enough.
1:50 THAT'S ONE HELL OF A CATCH 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
The mighty Egerton Park on the bonus clip 😉
A great clip at that!
That delivery at 4:29 is ridiculous.
Such a good delivery!
From a potential wide, to clean bowled. Sign him up.
I once managed to bowl a guy, hitting top of off and middle stump) playing the cut shot. It pitched right on the edge of the artificial wicket. It was much slower than this one though! The nature of inswing bowling is you tend to fall over and it's very hard to get the line right. It's easy to spray it down leg.
Mark Pankhurst, you're now famous 😉
Brilliant video
Thanks so much!!
Ben Stokes catch😂😂2019 de kock
Very funny. Great sportive spirit.
unlucky chap who hit his own car is appropriately named
I took 4 wickets in 4 balls in a practice match against my own college team (who was going for a major tournament). I don't know if we were to be happy or sad about it.
7:11 Umpire : Lemme just do my Job 😅
I can watch the test match no more I've turned it off and this is giving me a great deal of pleasure thank you.
Should do more of these videos with other players as well.😂
100% thanks for watching!
Right nas no reaction reminds be of when my band plays great music and people just don't even notice
Love these videos,
Legend! Who else would you like to see react to Village Cricket?
@@CricketDistrict maybe a few other sportsmen who like cricket.
Had a friend who played in league below a post retirement playing for fun Joel Garner, fifth division Somerset league, 50+ Joel
3:27 Tell you what thats a quality shot
That explains English cricket in general😂 Very special 😂😂😂😂
LOV IT!!!
Thanks!!
Damn I enjoyed that.😊
Thanks for watching!
The guy who tried to stop the ball from the other side of the boundary would have done better if he had noticed that the ball actually stopped before he touched it.
2:14 was the best 😅😅😅😅😅
I dont know cricket but these clips made me get some of the rules that made no sense before
i played for the batting team during the match showed at 6:26
Me - “He just hit his own car with a 6 HAHAAHAHAH” Mrs - “Asif” Me - “how’d you know?”
🤣
Next time you do one of these with Broad throw in the Bairstow wicket from the 2nd test ;)
bloke who hits his own car with a six is just... I have no words.
Good luck playing that is from my club Mildenhall
That’s awesome! It was an amazing delivery 🔥
Melton Mowbray!!!!❤
2.35 pmsl . 🤣🤣😂😂
We're not going to mention the bails didn't come off in the second one then? Okee dokie.
Some of those clips aren't village cricket. The one with the guy running in circles, falling and throwing the ball into his foot isn't even cricket, it is the "Uncoordinated Championships".
I thought the chap getting his first 50 was going to jump into the river in celebration of his achievement 😅
even Naz just normally talking is funny.
6:00 that was a game which i watched and that was my fr3nch teacher.
The guy who hit his own car's name was Asif loool
We love cricket❤
Best sport in the world!
Nasser sir is my favorite, love from 🇮🇳❤❤❤
2:05 you cannot do that Ben stokes
Brilliant
Anyone notice the guy who smashed his own car window his name is "Asif" 😂
😂
We don't get to hear it much when he's on commentary but Nasser has the best laugh. 2:39 is a little taste.
I'm biggest crik district fan 😊❤️
Appreciate the support 👊
asif hes managed hit his own car
4:29🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE???!!!!!?
2:54 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯👌👍👍👏👏👍👌🤯👌🤯🤯👏👍👌🤯👍👌🤯👌👌👏👏👌🤯🤯
how is that last one out? The one that Stuart Broad showed
It's not 🤣 The guy had a bit of brain fade!
Soooo funneeeee
1:55 wow so he naturally says that lmao, thought it was only scripted for cricket 22
Must cool for a some of those guys to be getting praised by legends of the game especially on those two catches.
He is not catching that until he is completely turn around 🤣🤣😜😅 best one
Not what you want to see in the slips haha!
@@CricketDistrict oh no, you cannot do that. 😅🤣
I know it’s not irrelevant but the other game I hit 3 fours and when I was walking off someone said he’s a very good batter and I really want cricket district to comment or a heart
Always come back stronger 💪 You'll get them next time!
@@CricketDistrict thank you so much
I’ll have watch it playing behind square I might hit me car. Asif.
Special school boys having fun ….
But Stuart broad IS a pundit now😂
The bloke who hit the car. See his name?
