Here's an interesting cricket fact:
"April 2005. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has just smashed his first international century; 148 runs of such eye-watering brutality that he resembled Genghis Khan in a mood as he bludgeoned the bowling to all corners, the bat flashing nearly as much as the red tints in his 80s rock mullet.
His parents however were not having such a good day as that very morning their home was invaded by a group of eunuchs bestowing blessings and then demanding £600 for the privelege. Dhoni's dad managed to slip out and get help while his mum gave the bollock-less ones sweets to keep them occupied until the Indian rozzers came to take them away.
It is a custom in India for eunuchs to be given money on such auspicious occasions, but apparently they have become a bit of a pain in the proverbial of late and the police often get involved. It's the same everywhere isn't it? A few idiot eunuchs ruining it for the rest."
