Best Spell of the year (ODI/TEST/T20): Shahid Afridi

Most Amazing catch/Run out of the year: Shahid Afridi

Best century of the 2009 Boxing Day test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground: (I don't understand this category. Only persons who have scored a century at that particular time can win this)
ORLY moment: what is an ORLY moment?


I've got two new categories:

Best celebration: Shahid Afridi
Best catchphrase: Boom Boom Afridi (The name 'Boom Boom' is now actually on the Pakistani T20I shirts)

Here are my votes for that:

1) Best Spell of the year (ODI/TEST/T20): Shahid Afridi

2) Butterfingers (or gloves) of the Year: Dhoni



I've got two new categories:

3) Best celebration: Shahid Afridi
4) Best catchphrase: Boom Boom Afridi (The name 'Boom Boom' is now actually on the Pakistani T20I shirts)

1) Doesn't even make sense.
2) Are you flinging kidding me? Do you not realize who Pakistan's keeper is?
3) He just looks like someone who is full of himself.
4) More likely a nomination for the lamest catchphrase.

Boom Boom sounds uneducated.

Also (building on Rohits joke) its probably not a good idea for Pakistanis to wear shirts that say Boom Boom as they travel around various airports

He's new to me, and as everyone knows that's all that counts

 

[Themer]

That debut wasn't for England though. Thats back when he played for Ireland.

 

[Paki007]

That debut wasn't for England though. Thats back when he played for Ireland.

so if Today Richie Benuad starts playing for India then you'll call him a new player?

 

[Themer]

No. My point was he's only just started to play at this level compared to the matches he played against the lower quality teams.

The category is more aimed at who has had a breakthrough year.

 

[Kiko_97]

Best debut hundred in an Ashes Test by a non Englishman playing for England: Jonathan Trott

 

[Insomniac]

No. My point was he's only just started to play at this level compared to the matches he played against the lower quality teams.

The category is more aimed at who has had a breakthrough year.

Meaning... most improved player?

I see what he's saying, because Eoin Morgan played against full member sides for Ireland, so really he's not new.

He's new to English fans, but he's not new to International cricket.
