The dullest 10,000th run celebration.

by Gaurav Sethi

Kallis has been called many things by the SAFs in the box today. None of them are very evocative, still, they are very excited. Best player ever, best overall averages, best allrounder. Just listening to them, you’d think Best Bus service was plying through their mouths. And as Kallis gets close to 10,000 runs they are beyond incorrigible.

Somehow the 10,000th run seems to have calmed them down. As it has Kallis, who raised his bat as if he was about to announce his retirement. Needs to pick a few 10k tips from his IPL mate, Dravid, who did the whole Bangalore Royal Challengers cheerleader routine. And then some.

SP, they should switch to Afrkaans. And what happened to Mike Hayesman, not that i'm complaining

VM, worse. Bet you approved of Dravid's show

:-) NC, you've also started to read my mind. Yeah, RD's was a bit uncharacteristic, but not many times does one cross 10K runs. Nice to see the human side.

the laziness has crept into his celebrations too now, nice to see at least some one stay in their character!

taking nothing away from dravid's celebrations of course, just that i fear VM :)!

VM, do have a look at eye on cricket.

Ankit, stay in character is right. the bulk of the man weighed his celebrations down.
