Cricketer Of The Year
So there's probably quite a bit of questionable logic here but anywho.

  1. Mitchell Johnson - Flawed, but love this man so much. Jono's quote in my signature about sums it up, he's ****ing awesome for cricket, so entertaining. Also love that SteveNZ (i think? was definitely one of the kiwi posters) called him a Snarling Mongoose, such a cool villain description. Killer moustache
Hahaha definitely wasn't me, I'm not really a fan (of Johnson, not mongooses. Mongooses or mongeese?)

I don't get how your favourite player can be Sreesanth, and then a bowler who bowls Sreesanth's length and style but just a gazillion times better (Steyn) isn't who you rate as best to watch.

You stink Teja. You stink.

Sree was too cool for boring things like a consistent line and length.

1. TPC. go boil yer head indiaholic. He's The People's Champion for much much more than his ability. Gives all goofy lookin guys the hope (mostly false tbf) of pulling a hot missus.
But thats why I hate him........im better looking (subjective) yet my missus is a moose:ph34r:

Whats he got that i dont ( apart from money, talent and possibly personality) the blokes a dead set **** imo.

I'm hiding my passport before I say this but Mitchell Johnson is a lot more likeable in interviews etc than how he comes across on the field

Pretty sure I said this last ashes too tbh

Yeah he's been well-known for being very softly spoken and polite off the field. The complete opposite of his bowling, and a lot of people doubted his temperament as a fast bowler on that basis.

I remember straight after he took 7-40 at Adelaide by simply being too fast and aggressive for England to handle, Johnson gave an emotional interview with one of the Channel Nine guys, where he was talking about some of the hard times he's had, etc. Kind of summed him up.

The supposed people's champion is very high up on the list of people I hate at a personal level.. People just like him because he is so good at cricket.
Like he didn't have a cult following on here when half the world thought he was a bowler.

There is something so disturbing about r00t. Davey should have punched harder

Steve Smith is the symbol of all the good things in the world such as puppies,batman,backstreet boys etc

The rest lies between these two

Pretty sure people liked Sachin because he was so good at cricket too.

**** post anyway. Smith had a fanbase here before he turned epic.

Probably in the hope and expectation that he would turn epic though. It's really not a **** post. I certainly wouldn't like TPC anywhere much as I do if he was a Nohit with the bat.
