Yeah, I didn't like his work in "There's Something About Mary" either.

Evidently the Englishmen don't do anything to excite you? :)

I didnt realise this till you pointed it out. :)

I suppose they are too 'propah' to evoke any kind of 'emotional' response to the individual (which is what this is) rather than his game.

Surprisingly, even if I start looking back at all the English players I vave seen (and that goes back over forty years) I would still not add many.

Among those I liked of the Englishmen since early sixties, I would name,Tom Graveney, D'Oliviera and , probably Graham Gooch.

Amongs those who I didnt particularly like was Boycott(then-I love him now as a commentator) and Gatting and perhaps Hemmings- I dont know exactly why Hemmings :D

If I may ask, what is it you don't like about Sangakkara?

Actually, I like all current wicketkeepers in world cricket. I put Sangakarra to make the eleven :p

I think he doesnt look too friendly in the interviews that I have seen. No big deal, I agree. :)

International Debutant
why does so many people hate Aravinda? I can't think of anything that he has done wrong.
 

Pedro Delgado

International Debutant
Hate too strong a word for me, with the possible exception of Thatcher and strangely, she doesn't make my list considering her splenidid left-arm chinaman.

Would buy them a half: (not in batting order exactly, or at all really)

Matty Hayden
Graeme Smith
Herschelle Gibbs
Don Bradman
Nasser Hussain
Ian Botham
Colin Croft
Wasim
Steve Waugh
Jeff Thomson
Tony Grieg

Would buy them a bottle of bubbly:

Mark Taylor
Luke Sutton
Marcus Trescothick
Ian Hall
Alfred Mynn (really liked him, met him in a past life don't you know)...

..oh I dunno, I like everybody really from a distance, it's only when they speak to me I get unnerved. Misanthropic you see, damnable business.
