Still 2-0 down in the ashes but Monty is finally here!


He's only gone and done it! Monty Panesar the bearded genius strikes! On his second over! Claiming his first ashes wicket! Long live King Monty Panesar!!

Panesar and Mahmood have just been picked for their first Ashes (the most important and bitterly fault cricket game played between England and Australia, there's history man!). Just shows what you can achieve if you play as part of the team (Monty recieved a standing ovation as he came on to bowl his first over in an ashes series). Don't be a hater be a cricket player! If you come to our nation try and be postive part of it! Be a fair sport, anything else is just not Cricket.

I am also a fan of Amir Khan, we all watched him avidly during the 2004 olympics (he got silver at the age of 17). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amir_Khan_%28boxer%29

In finding these links I discovered that both Amir and Sajid are from the same Pakistani Punjab royal warrior clan, Janjua.
