He ceratainly isn't mine now, although he was one of my favs about 1 and a half months back. I amsure people in India used to like him but that number seems to have reduced quite a lot by now.

On the other hand this is a 'favourite player's' thread and he is entilted (no matter how bizarre) to have any player as his favourite/s.

Good one Graham!

That six on one knee over long on is Misbah's shot too remember him by. I've never seen anyone do that consistently. Wicked as Barnsey put it.

Theres not many players around that can play well in odis 20/20's and tests, hes got a cool head and a good temperament, some of those targets he was chasing people would lose their head and try slogging early, whereas he stays at the crease for a while and always manages a good strike rate

Yeah, didn't think you'ld like that too much but that's the attitude I cop sometimes!   Anyhow, it's their loss ........
 
Dead right about the easy bit. The only way to stuff up is by snookering yourself in cramped spaces. Potting wise , I'm virtually throwing 'em in the holes!  got to luv it!

God bless 'em....I've woken with many a top-shelf hangover at their expense
 
Sometimes I like to go have a hit of snooker for an hour and then go play a pub comp somewhere ($50-100)...........great fun. I'm 42 and considered a dinosaur (!) so it's good to tame the odd ego from time to time.
