Former Wellington and New Zealand fast bowler Heath Davis has lost half his foot but not his sense of humour. Davis suffered a horrific workplace accident in Brisbane, but as he told the Dominion Post, he's joked to close friends that he got so sick of bowling no-balls he decided to do something permanent about it.
"I can build up to a jog, that is about the height of it and I can still roll my arm over off four paces. Everything is swinging in though when I bowl because it is hard to complete the [bowling] action."
