Once again you make complete sense in your post. There are scandals in the sport, dodgy decisions, non-payment to fighters, performance enhancing drugs etc but a cricketer having a bash in the same way I would in his position must be pretty far down the list, even if he is a shitehawk.

It's tricky compiling a p4p national treasure top 10 as obviously they are all loved or would not be there but, yes, I would have him above those two. The nation ground to a halt in 2005 for that Ashes win.
