It seemed an honest, pioneering effort by a tennis player of no uncertain scientific bend of mind to find out the edibility of grass and see if it can be the answer to the global food crisis.
Taking a cue from Djokovic, Doosra prepares a list of cricket’s own bizarre biters, eerie eaters, champion chewers and leading lickers:
1. Shahid Afridi: A ball-biter par excellence;
2. Mohd Asif: Single largest importer of poppy seeds;
3. Sourav Ganguly: Human Nail-Clipper. Mad enough, at his pomp, to chew nails and spit rivets;
4. Ewen Chatfield: A unique swallower of his own tongue;
5. Lalit Modi: A reckless biter but limited chewer;
6. Harbhajan Singh: Premium finger-licker;
7. ICC: A steady eater, out of BCCI’s hands.
P.S. Would be unfair to put up the shutters without a word about Kamran Akmal, held as the most promising of all. Even jealous teammates admit he’s so endowed that Akmal can start a bat-manufacturing business rightway without buying a chainsaw.

Personally, I find I can't go a week without making fun of Shane Warne the pie-eater but I do like your #1 - that still blows my mind. What was he thinking?

People often ignore kitchen appliances in comparison with other home appliances. But a kitchen appliance like Refrigerator or Water Purifier is no lesser important that the furniture, as far as the interior beauty is concerned. It's really gorgeous stuffs at www.rightgadgets.in/Items.asp?Category=KitchenAppliances_India_Online&cid=6 to enhance the beauty of the home.
How about humble pie? Ian Chappell had it twice in recent years - once served from the kitchen of master chef SRT, and the other from your alternative food champion Afridi in the recent world cup.
English newspaper men notably Mike Atherton were recently served the same dish by Alastair Cook.
Seems quite a popular dish in Cricketing circles, no?
Govind, sincerely thinking of stretching the scope of the blog beyond just cricket to accommodate the Tysons!
Thoughts...I don't think he was thinking. He just went with the flow. had Afridi been Newton, there would not be any theory of gravitational force, for he would have eaten the apple without bothering about anything else.
Raj, you hit the nail on the head. Humble-pit must rank among the most popular dish in cricket :) Welcome to Doosra by the way.
Utility toys are conceptualized with the aim to develop the mental progress of a growing child. Toys from Fisher Price is just synonymous with this essential criteria.. Kids, without having to stress themselves, in no time, gets the fundamental learning exposure. Amazing, can sound magical, but true. That’s the one at www.righttoys.in/products.asp?item=FISHERPRICE_Toys_India_Online&brand=193 awaits you.
Keep up the good work. Best of luck. From www.righttoys.in/items.asp?item=Baby%20Toys_Toys_India_Online&cid=24
Andy Caddick eating humble pie at Durban in 03 WC. He kept talking about how he will bounce out SRT in the 03 WC but saw one of his bouncers being hooked for a huge six.
Greyblazer, wonder how many ate those and who supplied those. McGrath the Nostradamus springs to lip for his 2005 Ashes prediction :)
Surely, the dude is absolutely fair.
