Cricket commentator watches as ball dents his car

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Former New Zealand cricketer-turned commentator Ian Smith could only watch helplessly while Jesse Ryder hit a huge six that proceed to land right on his rental car. A car without insurance.

“For God’s sake, Jesse. Another report. It’s not the first one, I suppose. Usually it’s a scrape on the door ... how am I going to explain that? At least I have evidence.”

It’s okay Ian. The pain of needing to fill out rental car forms and explain the situation will be rough. How about you head down and get yourself a hot dog, or an American hot dog -- it will make you feel better.
