NOT CRICKET - JUST POLICE AND STEWARDS BEING TWATS
See that bloke on the right?
He's just been arrested.
His crime?
For throwing a cricket ball that had gone over the boundary at a game of cricket between England and Sri Lanka.
With no ball boys at cricket games, it's up to the players to get the ball back.
But it was such a good shot, the players just waited for someone to throw it back. Like you would.
But of course, by the bloke on the right treading on the turf at Lords Cricket Ground to do this, a knobhead of a steward (the short fat guy with his back to the camera) decided it was a crime and that the police had to know what a terrible crime it was.
See that copper on the left?
He's just been told by his radio that the TV camera is looking at him and if he throws the bloke out, the entire world will think the police are twats.
After 15 minutes of negotiation, the man who threw a cricket ball back to the players who asked him to, is allowed back to his seat to a round of applause from the crowd.
As Ian Botham, former England captain who commentated on the affair said; "Give some people a badge or a uniform and they act like idiots".
Almost right, Ian.
Maybe you're an idiot to want one in the first place, eh?

Does this mean that the Police will try to arrest any batsman who manages to hit the cricket ball for six, thereby "endangering the safety of the crowd" ??
