I love a good bit of indignation.
Yes, I wonder who the BCCI just got onside...or inside as the case may be.

liked them before he came on the scene to be honest but he's intensified the support...i'd probably not be unhappy if he were to put on a match winning display against England (as long as England still won the series).
Liked WI from the early 90's, seems like i remember all the series we had with WI from that time more than those with other sides...the two drawn home series and the two tours of the carribean where we lost 3-1. Wi in England in 91 is probably the second time i can remember watching cricket, the first being the India series the previous summer and the 93/94 tour is probably the first time i saw a tour on tv. Plus WI had Viv Richards and Richie Richardson(always looked awesome batting in a sunhat).
SL pretty much because of Murali tbh

I'd be interested to see which team people would guess I supported. I know I've voted on the poll but it's still not all that clear-cut.I know that!Hard to miss, TBH.
It's hard to miss who most people on CW support in fact, I could give you a decent stab at naming everyone with, perhaps, 500 posts, but I just want this poll filled-in to the maximum extent possible.
No-one ever seems to think I support Australia unless I know I live here. People usually assume South Africa, New Zealand or England, depending on which thread they see me posting it, which I always found interesting.

In a way, I do. I support all their players and I the growth of cricket in Zimbabwe more than any country. I found it difficult to vote for them given the fact that I do not support their board at all, however, so I steered away from it.
I found it hard to vote for Australia because Symonds in the team. I really dislike him that much as a cricketer. I considered voting for New Zealand based on Sinclair - but I have equal motivation to not vote for New Zealand because of how they treated Sinclair. South Africa was a solid option due to Jacques Kallis and the simple the fact that I have immense respect for them as a cricket team at all times, but I'm highly opposed to the transformation system which turned me off voting for them. I considered England, but then I thought I'd be betraying my country - which really said to me that I should probably be voting for Australia.

Oh, but he does. Presumably because he might've been born there.

Not a lot of people on here with WI as their first team. I know a place where quite a few are but having a bit of trouble with the signup plus they're a bit loose on the language side.Amazingly, ATM Kenya and Ireland have the same number of supporters as Pak, Sri Lanka, Bang, West Indies and Zim combined (6 each combined)
