After a week of writing for Castrol Cricket, I return my attention to Poshin's World and come up with this totally unrelated article.
Graeme Swann, the boy from Nottinghamshire is currently England's number one spinner and one of my favorites. Swanny is a seriously funny bloke whose antics on the field often bring a smile on the spectators face.
Here we can only imagine what Swann and Tim Brensen are doing....
This is one of my all time favorites of Swann as he mimicks Brett Lee. 'Binga' has finaly got another livewire to compete with him.
Another thing I like of Swann is the 'fights' he has with James 'Jimmy' Anderson via Twitter (http://twitter.com/swannyg66). Twitter is one of the places where he revels and reveals his talent. In his bio he interduces himself as 'i play cricket, i'm in a band, and i recently stopped wetting the bed! oh and i'm funnier than jimmy anderson.' I still remember once when he asked what was wrong to cook and eat a bird that the cat brought in. Surely with a player like Swann the English dressing room is a lively place.

Ha ha...Swanny is also one of my favorites..he is quite a funny character and a canny bowler too...
Poshin, do you want to go on my "smack" list as well?
Praising Swann edges you ever nearer, sunshine.
Oh Chris, must you? If I find you a funnier man will you stop liking him?
@ Baiju Nair,
I can't agree with you more mate. I totally enjoy Swann's bowling, his different hair styles and now his humour.....
@Sid,
I may make it to your smack list mate...But remember that with my legendary dismal record I'll be helping out the Aussies a great deal in the next few weeks....
@Purna,
Please do find a funnier man...but I can't say whether I'll stop liking Swanny....
And another clear example of clown Swann.
