A COUNTRY cricket team claims players from a rival side fed it drug-laced cupcakes to get an edge in a make-or-break game.
The Nerrena cricket club in Gippsland was playing a vital away game when host team Inverloch served up an afternoon tea of green-speckled cupcakes.
"I thought `gee this is pretty good, they usually feed us crap'," Nerrena's Tim Clark said. He ate five cupcakes.
Inverloch and the local cricket league say there is no evidence to support the Nerrena claims.
"As far as I'm concerned it's all rumours and this is just a witchhunt," Inverloch club secretary Ian Smith said.
Three visiting players ate the cakes, which they now believe were laced with either hash or marijuana. Returning to the field following tea, Nerrena's game went to pieces.
One player took almost 20 minutes to put on his pads. Others broke out in hysterical laughter and fled the field during play to drink water.
The three players, who claim to have never tried marijuana, said they did not know why they felt strange and assumed they were sunstruck.
It was only when Mr Clark described his symptoms to someone at the local pub that night that he was told: "Mate, you've been slipped a mickey."
Dave Trotman, who ate three cupcakes, was admitted to hospital with uncontrollable vomiting days after the match.
