Pedro Delgado
International Debutant
Favourite:
1. Warne. I hope he goes on until his arm drops off. We're watching history here, appreciate it.
2. England scaring the bejesus out of the Aussies. It won't happen often.
3. The gentleman Indians; I love the fact Sreesanth called Nasser "Sir" when he was introduced, it's terribly patronising to like this stuff but bugger it, I'm a romantic. Gentleman Indians are brilliant, more of them please. Tik hai, sahib?
4. Simon Jones. The 94th most handsome man in the world and a wonderful bowler, Welsh to boot, you have to hand it to the miserablists sometimes, they hear nothing but sheep and Mahler from day one you know.
5. Introducing my fiancee (and any stranger) to cricket and seeing the love affair with the game begin. There's not much I evangelise about, but cricket I do so. That and opium.
6. Flintoff's capacity for booze. Egad sir, I bow down to thee.
6. Year of the Cat - Al Stewart.
7. The Who.
Dreaded:
1. Rain/bad light. Booooooooooooo.
2. English spinners and the lack thereof. Okay I know, the pitches are seam-friendly and we can't produce them but come on, India produced Kapil ffs. What happened to Underwood that's what I want to know. Left cricket, joined the R.A.F, played bloody Rugby Union for a bit and where is he now?? Probably giving seminars on how to be a right winger
your country needs you ffs, we want spin you selfish ****.
3. Mu-Mu whingers. So they moved the goalposts. Get over it already.
4. Drunky. You are class. Get a half-class attitude you ****.
5. Shahid Afridi. Stop it. Allah disapproves of cheating buffoons. Just stop it.
6. Mariah Carey.
