Cricketers whose game styles and techniques you like but personalities you dislike.

[Pup Clarke]

Yeah I agree. I've always disliked line and length bowlers.

You haven't read the thread title.

Shaun Pollock was always a likeable character for me.

Michael Clarke, Virat Kohli, Shoaib Akhtar, Mohammad Asif to add to Ricky Ponting earlier. Dislike Kumar Sangakkara and Jacques Kallis too, but to a lesser degree.

Shaun Pollock was always a likeable character for me.

Me too - until I was made aware of his twitter account...

 

[Howe_zat]

I do my best to spread the love.

 

[Cevno]

Just searched for his account. Is that Legit ? Don't see anything to dislike personally tbh. Mostly postive thoughts.

What's the deal with Shaun Pollock's tweets? Had a brief look and it seems its mainly motivational quotes?

I don't understand the pollock twitter hate

Kohli, Watson's bowling, Mohammad Yousuf, Inzamam, Darren Gough, James Pattinson.

That commentary garbage Pattinson did, along with his excessive appealing and generally being a **** makes me hate the guy. Pretty decent bowler though.

Would also mention Michael Beer, but that would involve me liking his bowling...

you hate inzy?

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Would've said Tim Southee, though his bowling has turned to **** so he's not really valid.

Watson, Warne, and Ponting would be the big three, isn't it funny how they're all Aussies?

 

[Jono]

Kohli and Watson are perfect poster boys for this thread I would have thought.

I strongly believe Kohli has been put on this Earth to make me realise how much of a hypocrite I was with Watson.

Loved Watson the cricketer, but hated the bloke as he was a whinging wanker. Would always argue with DCYE about how he could be a fan of such a dickhead cricketer, no matter how awesome he was to watch.

And then circa 2008 the ***y Kohli caught my attention. Little did I know by 2010/11 he would be establishing himself as one of the biggest whinging wankers in professional sports, and yet I still loved him.

Humble pie for me. But humble pie I am happy to eat for such a great man like Kohli.

Not a fan of that incident in Canada (IIRC) where he chased after a fan with his bat. Sure, the guy called him a potato, but still..

shut it god lover

 

[Jono]

Oh I think I get it, as I said I haven't seen many Pollock tweets but on top of motivational quotes he tweets religious/bible quotes?

Or does he go further and make religious nutcase tweets?

 

[Spikey]

i don't think it's really that bad tbf. But I can see how Howe and PEWS, who are well known god haters, could find it annoying

 

[Howe_zat]

It's not so much the religious aspect I dislike as the sanctimonious, self-contractictory drivel aspect that those sort of statements end up with.
