Icon14 Most Disliked Cricket Team

So let's see if India really is the most disliked team on CW.

Or does Australia still hold the mantle? Vote for your most disliked cricket team.

It's probably us. We're disliked out of all proportion considering our absolute lack of form in the format.

For myself I'd say Oz still. Haddin, Clarke & Ponting a terrific triumverate of twattishness tbh.

Now that I think about it, the type of sports fans the US holds and the type of trash talk that accompanies American sports, if they played cricket they'd certainly be the most disliked of all.

Don't mind the Indian team so much, just seems that quite a few of the poorest fans happen to support India.

I can see this thread ending badly. That you've made it a public poll will no doubt come back to bite some posters in the arse as it's linked back to "prove" they're biased too.

Dunno. They have a fairly high cock quotient: Yuvraj, Harbhajan, Sreesanth...

Give it a chance, I'm sure it'll be ok. If anything we'll all just collaborate our efforts and hate on the US

Should not be a surprise, Nearly 40% of the Indians live below the poverty line.

Meh, I voted for Pakistan, because they're cheats. I don't see how that can end up controversial

Yeah but they're compensated by Sehwag, Sachin, Dravid, Badrinath, Pujara, Chawla and Zaheer who I'm fans of. I also like Gamhir for some reason unbeknown to myself.
