Facts
cricket terms, some of which are baffling to newcomers to the game. A Google
search on “Nelson” reveals much about the English sea Lord and a town in
Lancashire of the same name. However, to English batsmen, Nelson means a
score of 111 and is the unluckiest number in the game. The superstitious
custom is to remove one or both feet from the ground until the score has moved
on.
Why 111? The term was invented in the belief that Lord Nelson was unlucky
enough to have had only one eye, one arm and one leg. Nelson wasn’t quite
this unfortunate as he actually had two legs, but the cricket term has survived
all attempts by historians to correct it. And the superstition – watch out for the
cricket umpire David Shepherd who keeps one leg off the ground by hopping
from one foot to the other!

The rings, from left to right, are blue, yellow,

flag of every country in the world. The Olympic
