Re. Mushtaq, remember seeing him come out to bat in a Twenty20 for Sussex and being rather startled by one of the stats they showed. Sky (for the domestic T20 coverage) doesn't show the usual stats for a player - instead they have a profile listing things like strike rate, whom they'd like to meet, favourite food/music, etc... When Mushtaq Ahmed walked out, his profile showed 'Would like to most meet: Prophet Mohammed.' I dunno, but maybe that's just pushing it a bit.

Mushtaq has this outstanding gift of actually jumbling up the words of a proper sentence.... Listening to guys like him and Younis Khan speak English, you, as a listener, begin to doubt your own linguistic skilsl. You know those guys are speaking a language you are supposed to know, you know it is proper english words that is coming out of their mouths, yet you have no freaking clue what in the world they are trying to say. Generally, when I hear Mushtaq Ahmed speak English, I am left with a sense of bewilderment, rather than ridicule !

Having proudly represented their countries, they must not be embarrassing themselves and their supporters (to a certain extent) now by being unable to express themselves clearly in English. Jimmy Amarnath & Maninder Singh will make my list on that one. Listening to Hindi commentary used to be fun as well, when Sushil Doshi was around:hatsoff:
