Mad about Adam

Here's a great feature on one of my most favourite individuals, Adam Gilchrist. I've been a great fan of this ace all-rounder from a long time and the article does a lot of justice to him. However, it misses one point that more than characterises the Aussie stumper (though it focusses on his decision to walk in the 2003 World Cup Semi Final) - Adam Gilchrist is often the first to applaud a batsman when that chap reaches any sort of landmark. A quick word (of praise, I'm sure) and sometimes a handshake follows at the end of the over before Adam Craig Gilchrist walks the 22 yards to take his place.
