10 most arrogant statements by cricketers

2) Marlon Samuels- Give me 14 days with your wife and I’ll turn her into a Jamaican

People normally associate West Indies (WI) players as nice guys. Seldom would you see a WI player cross the line? However, this wasn’t the case with Marlon Samuels as he went on to get a lot of hate for his arrogant and cheap statement.

The former WI all-rounder went on an offensive rant against the English all-rounder Ben Stokes. He even dragged Ben’s wife into this! Stokes was interacting to an IPL podcast and said that he wouldn’t even want his worst enemy to undergo a 14- day quarantine. The Rajasthan Royals all-rounder said that he was texting his brother and his brother asked him if he wouldn’t even want a 14-day quarantine on Marlon Samuels to which Stokes said “No, it’s that bad, that’s how tough it was”.

Samuels took offense to this statement. “No white boy could diss me in the sports and no get back diss look at this b*tch still thinking about me give me 14 days with you wife turn har into Jamaican in 14 seconds mate none of yall know me that simply means it’s my f***ing superior skin tone (sic),” he wrote on his Instagram stories, responding to a post by ESPNcricinfo. Samuels was massively criticized by the entire cricketing fraternity and shouldn’t have used those words.
