James Marshall gets asked a stupid question

< 1 minute read

“So, are you any relation to Hamish Marshall?”

Writing in his Cricinfo diary, Ross Taylor says someone asked James Marshall that. James and Hamish are identical twins, if you didn’t know.

This was either the most admirably, pig-headedly stupid and obvious joke of all time or it was asked by a complete moron. If it’s the former, the asker should get some sort of medal to acknowledge their services to bloody-minded humour.
