Bit of a sweeping generalisation  - does that mean that poverty makes people more kind, giving and modest in a rich country?

Saunders - i'm lucky if i face a thousand balls a season!

I was refering specifically to harbajan Singh Dom not making a seeping generalisation.

I saw harbajan on a customs programme relating to new Zealand and what a arrogant cock he was. He seemed to think everyone was below him, I suppose that's what wealth does in a relatively poor country?

Wealth? Harbhajan considered quitting Test Cricket to drive a truck for a living as he was not making enough money to care for his family!

Good stuff -  I agree with what your saying though, i can see why lots of international cricketer seem to have issues with him........he's a good spinner, but not the best (which he seems to think!
Ashvir - this IPL should help out the old coffers, i'm sure he gets a few bob for participating!

just checked the club website, actually it was 788 balls I faced last season - so it looks like i'd be lucky to faced 1000 balls as well!

No wonder these guys can make it look so easy. I remember when I was much younger,working on some specific shots with an ex-county player called Brad Donelan (Sussex i think) and he was doing throw-downs to me. My hands were red-raw by the time he was finished and that was only one shot!

So 10 years, after being out of the India side and having various family issues he contemplated quitting?

Nowadays they're paid handsomely.
