Cameron White breaks India's heart

Let's all take a moment to marvel at the beauty that was Cameron White's first ever Test match wicket.

Sachin Tendulkar

On 49

15 runs shy of breaking Brian Lara's run-scorign record

Now, I have watched the delivery a few times and am amazed that he took the wicket by tossing the ball up. That's just not the Cam White that everyone was expecting.

More thank you Cameron.

Here's the man about to bowl his first ball in test cricket.

I'll dig up a picture of him almost crying tonight if I get a chance.

and yes I know he's Victorian, however I'm filing to support him under the Blonde Leg-Spinner clause...

Or you could support him under the awesome clause as well

Awesome < Victorian

Only a Blonde Leggy can overcome being Victorian, forunately White is really from Hampshire.

That average of 88 is going to strike fear into the hearts of the opponents.

Long time reader, first time comment poster, keep up the good work.

at least he's got an average for this series, unlike Kumble ;)

Welcome Truck Stop.

True, the average of 88 isn't the greatest at the moment but let's all remember how Shane Warne started!

And anyway, not all of us can take 6/18 at the drop of a hat

I'll always remember the sound (or lack therefor) of the crowd over the radio when Tendulkar fell. It was like each member of the crowd had all seen on a guy fornicating with a goat. The silence was only broken by dispair and disgust.

Dispair, disgust and Cameron White's tears

Cum White proves the flyslip wrong and Tendulkar proves us right.

We love it!
