Caught On Camera 1

World Sport Bloopers are delighted to announce a partnership with All Out Cricket. Every week we will be bringing you their 'Caught On Camera' post which will focus on funny moments in cricket. Enjoy!

Love it or loathe it, Australia's Channel 9 commentary is a break from the norm when it comes to cricket coverage. In this week's Caught On Camera we take a look at three of the Aussie network's more memorable moments.

Tony's Technophobia
Technology knows no bounds these days, with all manner of devices available to enhance our viewing experience. Some of the pundits catch on quicker than others though, and poor old Tony Greig tied himself in knots as he tried to simulate his desired slip field during the last Ashes.

Time To Get Serious

About World Sport Bloopers

World Sport Bloopers was created following the frustration of using video sites. Many offered videos that were filed under 'funny' or 'humor' but were not specific to sport. It required a lot of searching to find what we wanted. Even when you found the video, it was often edited poorly or inserted in a news segment so it had less impact.

World Sport Bloopers is inspired by UK shows like Fantasy Football (hosted by comedians David Baddiel and Frank Skinner), the eccentric Frenchman Remi Gaillard and US shows like Jackass. We aim to bring you the best bloopers, fails and WTF moments. We hope you enjoy the site!!
