Im a West indies supporter and i reckon the player i fear the most would have to be Ricky Ponting when we're playing australia. The player i respect the most outside of the windies would have to be the great Steve Waugh, he's just inspirational!

And last but not least the players i just HATE! ill start with the smart ass cocky fella Brett pretty boy Lee. Always hated Anil Kumble, he looks evil lol and Saeed Anwar or wateva his name is, i saw him in this interview 1 time, he's a mean bastard!

so what about yourselves?....

As an enthusiastic Aussie supporter I rather welcome anyone giving us a problem.

Tendulkar and Lara always seem to lift against us, particularly on their home turf.

Bowlers ? Harbi Singh on home wickets and Murali anywhere. Wasim Akram in his prime. 'Deadly' Derek Underwood in England.

Opposition players I 'loved to hate' ? Botham and Viv - absolute match winners.

Hate: Warne and McGrath; respect their qualities (in W case greatness) as cricketers but their behavior on the cricket field has brought the game into the gutter. Nothing wrong with words exchanged, by play and swearing if letting off steam. Abuse is a totally different ball game and sadly is a stock in trade of these 2 when things not going their way. Shame no-one stamped on them in their early days. Warne now believes that normal rules of conduct on and off field do not apply to him. Sad.
