I put this big boy up on cricinfo, but I don't see why I shouldn't spread the love here:
If all cricketers were like Mike Hussey or AB de Villiers, cricket would be a little samey. Yes, there is a place for the overachieving accountant and the Christian-pop lovers in cricket, but cricket also needs diversity.
One great cricketing diversity has always been seen in waistbands. In normal life someone of WG Grace's girth might have been a laughing stock, but in cricket he was one of the gods...
