Warne - hated the bastard for years and years but, just like those ****s Border and Waugh before him, and now ****ing Ponting's doing the same, you end having the highest regard for them - am I going soft?

I'm much the same, tbh. Not quite there with Ponting yet tho.

Think it's the masochistic streak in the English cricket fan; beat us rotten for years and we'll love you for it if you stick around long enough. Courtney Walsh was one of the meanest hombres ever to bounce a ferret, but he was regarded as a saintly elder statesman by the end of his career.

Anyway, Warney for me. Sachin's a godlike player and a humble superstar, but oh, Warne had something, didn't he?

This is a tough one for me. Love watching Tendulkar play and he's a quality bloke, but ultimately I have to go with the Hampshire connection, and one of my favourite bowlers to watch. Gotta be Warney.

When Matt Hayden said "I have seen god, he bats at No.4 for India", He was merely stating what an entire nation felt. Warne is one of the most lovable bastards ever, but apart from a couple of cricketers(AB and Waqar), I'd pick Tendy everytime.
