This gentleman must have been well set up in his retirement after these two calls.

More examples please, including Bucknor howlers if they can be found.

I was told this is fake, but I can't figure out how they did it. Surrey against someone else about five years ago.

Someone posted this under that video. Dunno how plausible it is- 


"People keep posting this video but don't realise the story behind it. The batsmen knicked a ball and got caught, the umpire called not out and called for over. The batsmen intervened, but couldn't walk as over had been called so they decided he would be given out and walk the next ball he faced."

Might happen in a game of village cricket, but seems unlikely in a professional County match.
