Well I once got hit in a match at school. The box (too small) had slipped and I ended up with one inside, one outside, and the edges of the box weren't padded. That was eye-watering for quite a few minutes. But the worst one was probably 2 years ago where I was fielding close-in and stuck my hand out to a tracer bullet. The ball bent my finger in directions it wasn't designed to go and I went to casualty next day but no fracture was seen on the X-rays. On the other hand, my finger was agony for 6 months and painful for nearly a year after the event. It was still sore at the start of the next season!

I swing both ways - but only when I'm bowling!

Even though ive been hit on the head with no helmet, had my thumb nail nearly ripped clean off, my most painful moment actually came from diving to make my ground from a quick single. Took the skin off all my underarms, my chest, stomach and some of my thighs. Taught me a valuable lesson, never dive on a pitch.

I was hit straight in the gonads while fielding at short mid on. The umpire asked if I wanted to leave the field. I was more content to lie on the pitch for twenty minutes, not moving, not making any sound.

I think mine was when I ripped the muscle in the back off my leg off the bone. I didn't get an operation though (and I don't know why) so instead it took about 10 months to heal.
This is going to be a cheery thread....

I have been pretty lucky - a bruised wrist is the worst i have had during preseason nets.

I just wanted to know what is the most painful moment you've ever had on a cricket pitch?
Mine was a shattered bone in my foot whilst batting. A fast bowler put in a yorker that hit me on the top of the foot. I've never felt such pain in my life. He may as well have dropped an anvil on my foot.
Plus the torture of not being able to play cricket for nearly a year was hell. The surgery I could deal with but I had to just sit and watch cricket instead of playing it.
I now have a metal plate in my foot.
So, What are yours?
