CricketWeb Decides - Who really is your favourite?

Nate

You'll Never Walk Alone
There's always a lot of debate on 'Joe Bloggs is my favourite player' or 'I'm Matt Sinclair's biggest fan' and I want to settle it. So, I'm going to start a list of players who are my favourites and put my name next to them. For now, let's please keep it at current players. Also, please quote the list, then remove the quote tags and try and keep it in alphabetical order (surname based). There can be multiple names next to a player. Where there is debate, we can argue and moan and/or use a poll. :cool:

So -

Nathan Bracken - Nnanden
Aaron Heal - Nnanden
Shaun Marsh - Nnanden

Going to make it official in my sig if I get them.

EDIT: Smiffeh raised a good point on MSN. At this stage, you may only choose a maximum of three players.

Of the current lot:
Dominic Cork - Rich Dickinson
Chaminda Vaas - Rich Dickinson
Graeme Smith - Rich Dickinson
Couple from not so distant past:
Aravinda de Silva - Rich Dickinson
Gary Kirsten - Rich Dickinson

Would nick Allan Anthony Donald too but I don't think even I can rival my namesake Hingston's claim to his fanship. So
Allan Donald - Rich Hingston

Aren't that many ITBT. Not that play with regularity anyway.

Anyway I only had 1 from 3 that fits that category! And I'd have said the same thing 13 years ago too.

I would say Scott Sutton but his first-class career is due to start in 10 years, if my ICC 3 game is to be believed.

So you actually do like Shahid Afridi. Had always wondered whether or not it was ironic.

BTW, your avatar never looks right unless it's the disappointed Afridi.
