MyLord

School Boy/Girl Captain
Shaun Pollack - an much for his batting and bowling prowess as for his mickey mouse ears.
Dale Steyn - for being a mean son-of-a-gun fast bowler, all venom without being the obligatory archetypal fast bowling asshole.
Rahul Dravid - GOAT batsman as well for his dignity and all around gentlemanliness.
Imran Khan - ***iest bowling action and delivery (see Cinthol Ads)
Shane Warne - greatest leg spinner, street smarts, greatest Australian captain who never was and on-field as well as off-field performances
Chris Martin - Never have I looked forward to any other batsman come to the crease as him.
Vivian Richards - Lord of all he Surveyed
Javeed Miadad - That Six - scarred me life. God, how I loved to hate him.
Adam Gilchrist - a brilliant non asshole who stood out in a sea of brilliant assholes.
Shoiab Akhter - always fun to watch - Slaughtering teams or getting slaughtered

They gave me much joy (and a side helping of heartburn).
