Marshall Shatters Gatting's Nose — Headingley 1984
England vs West Indies
2 August 1984
Malcolm Marshall broke Mike Gatting's nose with a sharply rising bouncer at Headingley in 1984 — while bowling with a broken thumb in a plaster cast. Blood poured from Gatting's shattered nose as he retired hurt. Marshall refused to leave the field and came back to take wickets. One of Test cricket's most viscerally brutal moments.
