Jimmy performs a cricket appeal

Jimmy is knowledgeable about cricket, and recounts how he used to play, until giving up in his teens after a larger boy joined the opposing team.

He decides to re-enact what could have happened, if he had not quit the team before going up against the bigger boy, with Tom Cashman stepping up to bat as the "behemoth".

Jimmy bowls the ball directly into Tom's pads, and then jumps up in the air, screaming "Howzat?!", and then breaking into a passionate and animated speech, celebrating his victory.

In the studio, Tom Gleeson is very impressed with Jimmy's passionate appeal, including its traumatic backstory, and awards him first place in the task.
