Cricket Banners - Your favorites over the years...

[Saqs]

I know it is an art in rapid decline over the years, on the verge of becoming extinct.

(Wonder why that is...anybody have any ideas on that?)

But over the years, we have all seen some banners in the crowd that are brilliant.

What are the favourites you've seen?

- I remember when the Waugh twins and Warne were in the side, it inspired numerous variations of the "We Warned you, but not it's time for Waugh" etc etc. - They started off well, but then got old pretty quick.

- "Batsman for Hire" banner seen yesterday in Cardiff when England were falling apart.

- "I got my ticket from an Indian" banners in the T20 World Cup Final

My all-time favorite so far is:

- Afridi. Mark of the Beast. 6. 6. 6.
(Never been a fan of the old 'Boom Boom' banners - but this one was actually pretty clever)

A huge white sheet hanging from a stand at the MCG many years ago which simply read:

In 2005(i think) when afridi smashed a 45 ball 100 against India,during his knock someone had a banner saying ''Afridi please spare us'' ...lol

One of my favourites was during the 99 World Cup where Pak fans were holding banners saying Demolition in Progress.

During last trip of Pakistan to Australia - some people had a banner saying something like "Member of Inzamam Fitness club ...." That was funny.

I don't think it was just the banner - the group may have been wearing T-shirts with something printed on it

Same here. also remember being at the Pak v Ind Champions Trophy match in when I saw one saying:

"Watch out india, Shoaib is going to bowl you in the Ganguly-ies"

the Demoltion in progress is a classic,

if i remember correctly the 1st time this sign appeared it was actually the real sign that looked like it had been taken from a construction site. CLASSIC!!!
