Shane
Warne and Bessie
Bardot
Sydney radio personality Bessie Bardot has obvious
talents, but picking Shane Warne's wrong'un is
not among them.
Warne
found himself bowling to the former model at an
indoor net in Sydney today as part of a promotional
event.
Bardot's legs and hands were appropriately protected
with pads and gloves as she faced the world Test
wickets record-holder, but her upper body was
not.
Warne
tossed in a friendly wrong'un which ripped back
from well outside off stump, bounced awkwardly
and struck Bardot quite hard on the right breast.
There
were red faces all round but Bardot declared herself
OK to carry on.
Warne
apologised and, with cameras and reporters lurking,
made sure he chose his words carefully.
Later
Warne asked Bardot if the ball had, indeed, hit
her where he thought it did.
"I
think you might have hit them both," she
said, smiling.
Bardot,
from 2DAY FM, may be nursing a bruise but at least
she had the guts to face him.
Former
boxer Jeff Fenech and rugby league star Brad Fittler
were supposed to join her in the nets but cried
off late in the piece.
