Straw poll for selecting pics of 2008 cricketers[edit]

Photos were taken at the team parade at the training for ODIs in January/February 2009 at Adelaide Oval.

Unlike the Indian team last year, they actually took training seriously. They were all very gentlemanly. Very dignified and genial. YellowMonkey (click here to vote for world cycling's #1 model!) 07:20, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
