Gully cricket and sports jokes
Clean jokes about street cricket rules, morning walks, sports day and running shoes that never ran. No real players or teams, only the games we all played.
Gully cricket, rule number one:
the one who owns the bat is never out on the first ball.Our street's scoring:
the wall is four, the neighbour's terrace is six,
and the neighbour's window is "everybody run".I am an all-rounder.
I cannot bat, I cannot bowl,
and I field all around the ground looking for the ball.The ball went into the strict neighbour's house.
The match was declared over.
So was the ball.In gully cricket, the umpire belongs to the batting team.
That is why nobody has ever been out LBW.The "last over" in our street has had eleven balls for as long as anyone remembers.
I joined a morning walk group for fitness.
We walk for ten minutes and discuss for fifty.Sports day at school: I ran in one race.
It was towards the snack counter.My badminton is very consistent.
The shuttle lands on the same tree every time.During a big match, grandfather has one rule:
whoever was sitting wherever when the four was hit, stays there till the end.I bought running shoes in January.
They are still new. Excellent resale value.The yoga teacher said, "Empty your mind."
Finally, an exercise I was already good at.
Who this set suits
School friends, colony groups, cousins who grew up playing in the same lane and office teams on match day. There are no real players, teams or matches in these jokes. They are about the cricket we all played, where the wall was four and the owner of the bat was never out.
How to tell them
Gully cricket jokes are memory jokes, so begin with "Remember..." when you say them aloud. Each street had its own rules; after the joke, ask the group for theirs, and you will get an hour of conversation. The fitness jokes (running shoes, morning walk, yoga) are safest told about yourself.
When to hold back
Right after a big loss, sports fans are in no mood; wait a day. Avoid fitness jokes aimed at anyone else's body or laziness. And in a mixed group, do not let a joke slide into an argument between fans of rival teams. If it starts, change the subject to food.
