Your Surprise Party Guest

If your friends and family organised a surprise birthday party for you and arranged for a cricketer to attend - not to make a speech but just to hang out, chat to the rels, have a few pics taken and eat some cake - who would you want it to be?

Like most cricket player related questions, my choice would be Geoffrey. Id be thrilled as I'm sure my mates would be in addition to my Dad and uncles. Even the older women in the family would be excited as he is such an important Yorkshire icon.

How many Indians on here wouldnt say Sachin?

Shane Warne. A surprise party for me would include a lot of drinking. If I'm having a party, I want as many party animals as possible there. Or Keith Miller, I heard he was in a similar mould.

First choice would be Benchy, naturally, but as I believe he is currently restrained within some sort of penal institution I'd go for Athers, who I reckon would be excellent company.
 

Agent Nationaux

International Coach
Ramiz Raja and Saqlain have both visited us for dinner (Ramiz) and lunch (Saqlain).

However if I were to invite someone it would probably would be Chris Gayle who is such a cool guy.

Being extremely shallow any surprise guest sent in my direction must have large breasts. So either Charlotte Edwards or David Boon.

I'd have Geoffrey too. Think some of my relatives have met him before actually...

He'd have two vodkas, and then when you're back is turned try and tune the bird you brought along.
