As has been pointed out, when a batsman is out for no score in Cricket he scores a 'duck'. The phrase 'lay an egg' just doesn't exist in Cricket at all.
The French used to cut the first two fingers from English archers, therefore the English would give the French the 'V' sign to show their defiance. In Britain the 'V' sign is used to show aggressive intent, not 'flipping the bird'.
