Aside from the obvious Clueless balls/face joke, I can't make out anything from that sentence.

basically most pitches for no runs scored in an international game. more or less. -- nm - mafaça Jun 26, 12:44 4

  - the bases are always loaded in cricket. think of it as the longest at bat that ended in a strikeout. -- nm - mafaça Jun 26, 12:48 2
    - So, who did well here? The pitcher for finally getting the out, or the batter that kept fouling things off? -- nm - Hunta Jun 26, 12:50 1
      - the pitcher (or the bowler, in cricket terms). the goal as a batter (batsman) is always to score runs. out for no runs is embarrassing. - mafaça Jun 26, 12:57
