Have Money to Burn? Pay $68,000 for a Cricket Ball

This diamond studded cricket ball will be presented to the Best Indian and Best International players at the 2007 Cricket World Cup tournament which is currently being played in the West Indies. The diamond cricket ball was created by Gitanjali Gems Limited. Each diamond ball is studded with 5,728 pieces of diamonds with a worth of approximately $68,500. Via Spluch .

Oddly enough, this wasn't the first diamond cricket ball. To check out the first diamond cricket ball made back in 2004, click here . It only had 2,704 diamonds. My gosh, the original creators of the diamond cricket ball in 2004 were really thinking small.

Kind of embarrassing that the first diamond cricket ball was so easy to out do... isn't that what you're thinking?
