Again, Monty Panesar? Why?
Mudhsuden Singh Panesar (born April 25, 1982 in Luton, Bedfordshire), popularly known as Monty Panesar, is an English cricketer. An attacking left-arm spinner with a classical action, Panesar plays Test cricket for England and county cricket for Northamptonshire.
He has become a favourite for the England crowd due to his bowling, as well as his poor ability in the field, regularly getting cheers when he successfully fields and scores runs. His inadvertant comic reputation was secured when TMS commentator Henry Blofeld accidentally refered to him as Monty Python. His cult hero status is heightened by his wicket taking celebration, which consists of him gambolling aimlessly down the wicket, missing all high fives which are offered.
EDIT: Who knows?
