Abstract
Cricket is a national sport in some countries and can be potentially h azardous. We report an incident of a cricket ball impact to the chin, which resulted in posterior dislocation of both temporomandibular join ts and bilateral mixed deafness. There appear to be no similar case re ports in the literature.
