The Coolest Man In Cricket?

zaremba · 29-04-2010, 11:50 AM

Title says it all.

Only two contenders of course.

Prince EWS · 29-04-2010, 11:52 AM

Kallis.

Teja. · 29-04-2010, 11:53 AM

Imran Khan.

BoyBrumby · 29-04-2010, 11:54 AM

SKD's Uncle Isaac.

You need an irrelevant third option Mr Z - I'd suggest wfdu_ben91

Genuine lol esp way he went on with his business unfazed by RRR in the IPL.

Hard to look past Gayle. Perhaps because I've not watched or followed Richards, not helped by fact that for most of his career I was yet to be born, anecdotes and incidents reported nevertheless. :-)

Dhoni perhaps a contender although sometimes it seems a bit imposed.

Stuart Broad.

Well yeah you could never say that Kallis was unduly influenced by the match situation.

Voted for Viv although I think he had a different sort of "cool" factor to him compared to Gayle.

Fusion · 29-04-2010, 01:12 PM

King Viv is the coolest man in all of sports.

Lack of helmet makes Viv so much cooler.

Gayle is the only player today who is jovial, funny, provocative, hip, easy going all while being a captain, and having a top record in ODIs and decent test record. So he is kool and successful
