Your favourite XI vs Hated XI

[Simon]

Brad Hogg's the friendliest guy ever

yeh hogg is cool, met him at a MMC game in canberra a few years ago...

 

[masterblaster]

Tendulkar is a very likeable guy if you meet him in person. I've had the pleasure of talking to the great man on a number of occasions, despite his enormous sucess and wealth he's extremely down to earth and sincere which makes him a champion in my book. He's a great bloke with a great heart and a lot of passion for Indian Cricket.

WHAT?!?!!?!?!?
you can't put Lancashire players in!!!!

yeh, i don't really know hegg, but just his name...its annoying. didn't rate him as a cricketer either.

plus whenever i was anywhere near running through lancashire in international cricket captain (which was fairly rare, as i played as derbyshire), hegg would make annoying runs.

Hmm, so many people dislike Sohail. Why the peeve folks? What did the poor guy do?

Daimn!! I can't believe I forgot the incredible Allan Antony Donald! He's like one of my favouritest players eva! Drop Walshie from my team, Allan has to be in it.

Its going to take some serious repenting to make up for that selectorial boo boo..

Tendulkar is a very likeable guy if you meet him in person. I've had the pleasure of talking to the great man on a number of occasions, despite his enormous sucess and wealth he's extremely down to earth and sincere which makes him a champion in my book. He's a great bloke with a great heart and a lot of passion for Indian Cricket.

he actually is one of the most honest and sincere person ive ever seen. despite what many people may think, i do actually respect tendulkar a lot as a person.
