Who is your favourite cricketer and why?
As the title says, who do you admire in the game of cricket, or better still, who is your idol?
Myself, well, when growing up I worshipped Malcolm Marshall (and still do to be honest). I just thought he was a mesmerising bowler who had it all, pace, brains, stamina and respect. I also had a soft spot for Curtley Ambrose, another guy I could watch bowl without ever getting bored.
Batting wise, well, it's hard one really as bowling was my thing, but I guess I have grudging admiration for Allan Border, as he really valued his wicket and in a way helped shaped the Aussie side into what it is today.
That's a few of mine, so lets have some of yours!

Kevin Pietersen obviously. I just admire him immensely, he has the arrogant swagger of Viv, a unique technique, and i respect him as a person. He had to put up with alot in South Africa with the quota system and all, I just find the guy amazing. After KP i probably like James Anderson the most, followed by Brett Lee.
