Cricket Web: All-Time Legend
The whole charm of TPC lies in the beauty of watching eye-catching young icing blossoming into monstrous cake without becoming a ****

Probably in the hope and expectation that he would turn epic though. It's really not a **** post. I certainly wouldn't like TPC anywhere much as I do if he was a Nohit with the bat.
That's just not the case at all though. You're just wrong on this. People got around him years ago for completely different reasons to why other cricketers are popular on here.

And it was a **** post. Don't tell a whole bunch of people why they like someone.

Calm the **** down ffs, indiahloic's post was quite clearly tongue in cheek as well, don't know why you're taking it seriously.

I like Jos Buttler.

Explosive player with the bat, and his being picked meant the end of Matt Prior.

Yeah IIRC the Smith fanboyism started before he'd even played Test cricket, when there was a big push for him to replace North at #6 after the Aus 2011/2 summer.

People gotta realise TPC is TPC because he went away as worked so hard at his game, basically transforming himself from someone who stayed leg side of the ball and batted like Graeme Swann into a proper test player.

This habit he has of walking across his stumps always looks a worry but he's reaching almost Graeme Smith levels of trolling with it. You think he's going to go lbw but he middles it almost every time. That and he leaves the ball so well now is what's turned him into an immense player.

Yeah it's no coincidence that he leaves so well now that he gets so far across. It basically means he can leave anything that's not directly under his eyes, and anything on the stumps is under his eyes on his pads and he's so good at working to leg and not falling over. He just doesn't miss them. I think there was a hawkeye in the West Indies of his test dismissals to pace - and only two were from balls which would have hit the stumps. (the 199 and something else)

Steyn at PE
He probably begins with some simple stretches



Followed up by some badass sprints



Then comes the ever popular Rock n' Roll



By now de Kock can hardly contain himself at the magnificence on display



Steyn decides to end with a safe stretch to end the beautiful PE session
