Stuart Broad

Seems effeminate, frankly.

That is an added bonus for the ladies.

You are right he does.

Its a strange thing sweeping cricket. The current Australian cricket team look like underdeveloped school boys.

They look like they need a good meal and rather than beeing elite level athletes they look like refugees.

Ive been noticing for a long time this trend and it has me worried. Michael Clarke being the first to look like a 12 year old. It has spread through the team and even Tait, who once appeared broad shouldered and strong in the chest, has the Clalista Flockhart head-too-big-for-the-body thing going on now.

With Symonds and Watson out of the team the players looks physically underdeveloped.

Id seriously be talking to their expert nutritionists. Their chests look shrunken and they look underweight and childlike.

There is a difference between being fit and strong and being skinny and the Australians seem to have taken it too far. And before anyone mentions, it is not the 'cut' of the ODI shirts.

Though Mark Nicholas thinks otherwise, I fully agree to the above post. The contrast has been the Indian team, who always used to look "Oh so cute" to "rugged" now. With the likes of Zaheer, Yuvraj, etc. Even the English team has KP and Fred who can make that impact immediately. I still think Ishant's success against Punter has had to do with his physicality as much as his skill.

Sharma has the physique of a streak of piss, whilst Zaheer and UV are just overweight.

Bah, face him on a cricket pitch first.

Personally, if we want to avoid the "four number elevens" scenario (well, three and a ten-and-a-half in fairness to Sid, I suppose) we'd be better served by dumping him & Panesar for Anderson and Swann.

Anderson is hardly a number 11, one would think people would know that having watched him bat off late. I wouldnt even mind him coming in at number 9. Hes given our top order a lesson in how to bat recently.

Haha, are you kidding? Zaheer and Yuvraj "rugged"?



Let's not get carried away here - the Asian team players are generally half the size of and half the fitness of the western/windies players. They used to be quarter the size and fitness, so I suppose they've caught up a little. They make it up enough in other areas to be competitive, but Stuart Broad could flick Yuvraj's ears and he would go crying to his mum.

"Rugged" That's just hilarious.

We all saw who ran to his mum in the T20s...

There are the wannabes of course like Sreesanth. But generally, Indians have never been so imposing in cricket history ever.

Windies of the 80s take the whole cake with the stripper in it for sure.

Well, yeah, within the game of cricket, physicality counts for only a part of the package. That's why we have Lara, Tendulkar and Ponting becoming the best in the world.

But Broad is 6' 5" and chiselled, while Yuvraj is 5' 11" and fat. Are you seriously telling me the latter is more "imposing" than the former?

Broad chiselled?

Yuvraj is 6 feet one if am not wrong.

 

[Uppercut]

Looks like this IMO.

It's definitely who he modelled the hair on.

Even worse tbh.

Except Pathan gets swing and is a far better bowler than Broad.

DWTA. Pathan is a piss poor bowler, as is Broad.

I don't get the appeal of Broad. He looks like an Evan Rachel Wood impersonator.

Bet you can't even tell them apart.

Sisters indeed.

lol at this thread.

Maybe I'm just having a bad night, but I fail to see the resemblance...

 

[Precambrian]

Cute, blue eyed, complexion, hair color, density, no facial hair, doggy eyes, flat chest,

That's just to name a few.

 

[Matt79]

Roughly humanoid, with clearly distinct cepheletic structure. Carbon based life form. Suspects are hatless, repeat hatless.

She's got red hair, he's got blond. She's pale with freckles, he's tanned. The structure of their faces is nothing alike. Might as well say he's separated at birth from Paris Hilton...

BTW, geez its hard to find a picture of Hilton on the web that you can post here...

 

[Precambrian]

Flat chest applies to both .

Clearly blessed with a sense of humour, I see.

And Evan Rachel Wood is blonde.
