Biggest jerks in Cricket

[Mr Casson]

This thread makes no sense as we can't judge any of these peoples personalities...only their cricket skill...

You could judge if you know them well, a 5 minute conversation means nothing...

Exactly right. People keep saying Glenn McGrath is an @r$ehole, but off the field he is really such a nice guy. He just plays with a lot of passion, like Harbhajan Singh, Murali etc... They're all nice fellows off the ground (of course people are going to have bad moods occasionally, so just because someone says "get out of my way" doesn't mean they are always like that).

I think a lot of the time it is just an act on the field, how they act stays on the wicket and all that, though Mcgrath is just a bit of a c*** to be fair. I always thought Warney was pretty bad but i met him in a bar one night with the rest of the hampshire team and he was a good laugh, quite accomodating considering the amount of attention he got.

Just when I thought Warne was an okay guy , acknowledging the ovation from the crowd on achieving the world record and behaving pretty well , he goes and spoils it all by bullying Parthiv Patel.

What exactly is this incident?

He never turns away attention in a bar (usually it ends up with a number and some messages...)

Last time Australia toured NZ, Warne was involved in an accident where a boy took a picture of him smoking. Warne saw the boy & tried to take the camera off him.

Im not exactly sure whether the boy knew Warne was smoking or whether it was by accident.

What exactly is this incident?

The bowler was ready to bowl, but Parthiv Patel want ready to face him yet. Warne ,at slip, felt that the batsman was delaying and trying to put off the bowler . So he gave Patel a mouthful . Parthiv was visibly stunned by that performance.

 

[shaka]

Warne is definitely not a nice guy (from what I have seen from him anyway)

And you're definite it was as black and white as that, and Patel wasn't delaying (bearing in mind it was at a time when Aus were getting on top and wanted to get on with the game?)

And you're definite it was as black and white as that, ?)

Light brown and off white , To be precise .......

Even if that was true, theres always an umpire to turn to. Theres no need to argue with a batsman , on two occaisions at that
