Clayton Lambert ...... If anyone ever watched him bat you would know why ....... I even tried to model my batting like him ( not much success though) !

Begging your pardon legglancer, but who is Clayton Lambert? Does he play for the USA? I've heard the name somewhere before but can't place him. How does he bat?Legglancer said:

Yes he played for the USA ..... but before that he played for the West Indies .... he even scored a century against England in 1998 ( I think he contributed to atherton giving up the captaincy).Barney Rubble said:
But what makes him so special is he had his own patented unique style of batting which you have to see to believe.

Daren Ganga - Because he has the same mannerisms and batting style as me... (although obviously better!)
Dermot Reeve, simply because of a Charles Collville commentary stint at NZ/Eng at the Hong Kong Sixes a few years back.
BOWLED HIM, REEVE IS ON A HATTRICK
....next ball for 4
BOWLED HIM, 3 IN 4, NEW ZEALAND ARE IN TATTERS
You'd think it was a World Cup final, such was the excitement in his voice.
2nd would have to go to Ravi 'The Man' Rampaul. I don't know why he's the Man, he just is. It's divinely ordained.
Ravi, Ravi, he's our man, if he can't do it no-one can! We were in the crowd in the washed out ODI in Durban, and we had quite a decent Ravi Rampaul chant going, he was fielding near us.

Did you witness the "Mohammed Bump"?DocHead said:
IE that fielding effort in SA he did, which got broadcasted on the big screen for all to laugh at! That was class, he tried to field it like he was toboganning down a hill, had the commentators in hysterics too..

The clear winner here is Chris Harris for a number of reasons:
He's been bald since birth
He action is the oddest in the world, half leg spin medium type ish
His middle name is ZinZan
He used to bowl with a cap
When we first watched him in a test match he extravagantly left the first 20 odd balls he faced and eventually fell lbw leaving a straight one.

Whatever it takes!!!
I always enjoyed watching Dinesh Mongia bat. Everytime he hits the ball in the air, it seems to land in no man's land. I suppose not everytime, but most of the time, he hits the ball in the air and the commentators get excited and then they see it falls safe. It is just so funny to see the commentators get so excited about nothing.

Tufnell, for obvious reasons, because he almost single handedly won the first Test that I remember. Plus, I generally like controversial people.

Ashley Giles' little kick-up routines when the ball rolls back to him at the bowler's end always make me laugh, especially when he messes them up!
