Is it the ball of the decade or ball of the century or some grand title like that?

Depends on your age of course but Frederick Sewards Trueman is the greatest cricketer I have ever seen. Or am likely to see.Freddie Trueman was the Muhammed Ali of cricket. He was that good.

I still remember watching it live with some mates and we were just stunned, one who'd been in the bog came back to a chorus of "you'll never fuckig believe this ball thats just been bowled". We'd never heard of Shane Warne before then.
