A thoroughly deserved accolade, and the guy is only 27, so if anything he'll only get better over the next few years.First batter not from the big 4 to be the number 1 Test batsman since AB de Villiers in 2015.

Atheists and anti-religion types are easily triggered.Based on what, the fact that he’s not ashamed of his belief? I’ve read dozens of interviews with him. I’ve heard it mentioned maybe twice.

There are many things that make people question the good judgement of a potential leader, and being a fervent follower of sky fairies happens to be one of themOh I can definitely see why that would upset you it must present a huge imposition on your personal well-being. I’m sure all the non-believers who regularly accidentally find their way in there are very affronted that a place used by people specifically to share and practice their beliefs is being used by it’s congregation for that exact purpose.
What he should do is be a philanderer, drug cheat, drug user, abuser, match fixer, drink driver, alcoholic, violence-prone bogan like 50 per cent of the rest of Australian sportsmen that we hold up as heroes.

Religious people think all sorts of nutty thingsPeople who follow that sky fairy probably think the same about people who put their trust in an explosion.

yeah , it's called cashing in i guess.
i'm sure bradman was dropped once or twice as well.
