I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Decent comeback, tbh. Wasn't expecting such lofty heights in quality.I don't know, good question, but I do hope it happens to you on reading this post.

Gambhir incident, but we like to pretend that never happenedYeah, I don't understand why so many people despise Katich, either. The only time he's acted untoward on the field (from memory) would have been at Trent Bridge 2005.
Find it hard to hate any players, they just have so little (public) character. Even guys like Symonds and Harbi can be so manufactured at times. Whether that's a good thing or bad thing, I don't know, but find it hard to base such strong feelings on something as trivial as a quote taken out of context, a heat of the moment reaction on a sporting field or the fact a guy gets injured constantly. Fact is most cricketers today are pretty boring.
Yeah, I don't actually hate cricketers' characters as such. My list was just based on players I don't particularly like watching, think are over-rated or don't think should have been selected in the first place.Find it hard to hate any players, they just have so little (public) character.

Didn't realise people coming up with tenuous reasons to dislike cricketers was fun
Haha, well in general we don't genuinely dislike them, but you know. Players we don't like seeing do well.Didn't realise people coming up with tenuous reasons to dislike cricketers was fun
Look I'd love to hate some cricketers, they're just pretty dull for the most part these days.
Don't see it at all, tbh.Hahaha. Hard to disagree with this list.
How can more people NOT have Katich in their All-Time Annoying XI? Smug, irritating SOB.
I hate that teamBased on those vote tallies, here's our Hate XI:
Vaughan (c), Warner, Ponting, Pietersen, Clarke, Bell, Symonds, Haddin, Harbhajan, Harmison, Powell
Bowling issues but a decent side otherwise.
I voted for him just because he made the Australian team without any hard work, if I was English I probably would have voted for Luke Wright.The press is to blame for the Waner hate, he's been nothing but humble in the press, never appeared to have a big head.
How do you know he doesn't do any hard work?I voted for him just because he made the Australian team without any hard work, if I was English I probably would have voted for Luke Wright.
I don't hate any players really, just picked Cricketers that annoy me no end.

think he means in FC cricket putting the runs on the boardHow do you know he doesn't do any hard work?
Press probably to blame for quite a number of the players on that list tbh.The press is to blame for the Waner hate, he's been nothing but humble in the press, never appeared to have a big head.
Do you also hate de Villiers for that catch? (Strauss)Chimpanzees have taken up religion now, have they? I guess that's evolution in action. Maybe you won't need an infinite number of them to write some old ****e, such as Daniel Vettori's appallingly written autobiography.
Anyway, my number one reason for hating Michael Clarke is that claimed catch. Can't stand blatant cheating. Same reason for Haddin being on my list.
Yeah I meant this Uppercut.think he means in FC cricket putting the runs on the board
