damn was hoping harbijan would make it to the last round

8-6 Suited

With my 2nd last pick, I take: Mohummad Yousuf aka Yousuf Youhana



Just read this exert from Wikipedia:

Test match records in 2006

Statistically, the year 2006 is said to be the year of Australia, Muttiah Muralitharan and Yousuf. Yousuf scored 1788 runs at an average of 99.88 in 2006 and broke two of Viv Richards's world records.[47]

“   It's excellent and slightly unbelievable what he has achieved. Nine hundreds in a year and that many runs is just magnificent. He is a very committed player and an excellent role model, not just for Pakistan but for young cricketers everywhere.   â€

â€" Former West Indies batsman Brian Lara on Yousuf's achievements.[48]

On 30 November 2006, during the third innings of the final Test between Pakistan and West Indies at Karachi, he surpassed Viv Richards's thirty year old record and became the highest scorer in Test matches during a single calendar year.[48] He also broke Zaheer Abbas's record for the most runs made by a Pakistani batsman in a three-Test series. Abbas made 583 runs against the visiting Indians in 1978/79.[49]

Yousuf hit nine test centuries in 2006, which is a world record for most centuries in a calendar year.[47]

Yousuf also equalled the record held by former Australian batsman Donald Bradman, by scoring six centuries in successive Tests - although it took him only four matches compared with Bradman's six.[50]

After his 191 at Multan he became the first player in Test history to have been dismissed 3 times in the 190s, with all three innings coming in 2006.[51][52]





Enough said.
