As I kid I had a strong dislike for Pat Symcox and Craig McMillan.
It's hard picking from the current lot of players because the Australians are the only blokes that are unlikeable on a personal level. Maybe Gary Ballance for being ugly to watch, or Joe Denly for his painfully mediocre 50 at Headingley and because he is neither Test standard nor young.

Hadlee. Just a surly, selfish prick tbh. Wouldn't divvy up player of the summer awards with his team mates.
Mind you, a lot of the Kiwi players from that era looked like they got around sucking on lemons all day: Coney, Bracewell, Ian Smith. Just sour AF. If you hate the game that much, don't ****ing play it.

Yeah. Ben Stokes obviously real likable. Were you a Runako Morton fan too?

Haha fair, pretty much all the player biography's from that era note that Hadlee was an aloof character obsessed with his own statistical success. Would love to have seen him bowl against Steve Smith to find out who would win the battle of the high functioning autistics.

He is pretty likeable though. You’d love to have him on your team and he’d be fun to hang around with imo, notwithstanding the fact he should be in the local gaol of course.

So if he was born later, Hesson would've dropped him for Doug Bracewell and said he had a low EQ?

Not sure what having a beer with Stokes would be like, it could be fun, or you could end up getting glassed. Either is possible

You think? His personality strikes me as basically Shane Warne with added violence. Bloke’s just a bogan thug
Haha, there's a lot of sense in this post. Hadlee was so great because he was a selfish prick. Cricket is a team sport only in its numbers - unless you're actively seeking to blow up team morale like a KP etc. Hadlee has never been a well loved NZer really, because of it. Admired yes, loved no. Gets around with the number plate 'SIR431' these days (or something similar, I know the 431 part is true).
