The world’s top cricket totty has been named in the inaugural Stick Cricket International Cricket Cutie (ICC) Trophy.
The Stick Cricket ICC Trophy coincides with the ICC (International Cricket Council) Champions Trophy in India this month. More than ten thousand cricket fans and users of Internet phenomenon Stick Cricket – the world’s most popular online Cricket game – judged the world’s top cricket cuties.
The winner of the Stick Cricket ICC Trophy is supermodel Minki van der Westhuizen, who recently split from South African cricket captain Graeme Smith.
Minki van der Westhuizen skittled the opposition with more than one in three Stick Cricket users (30.45 per cent) naming her the world’s fittest pavilion pinup.
Smith ‘n’ Minki were South Africa’s and cricket’s answer to Posh ‘n’ Becks.
“Minki is a cricket fan’s dream woman,” explains Director of Stick Sports, Chris Berry. “She’s sleek, sexy and with a successful career to boot. Cricketers attract a finer class of WAG. While football is a game for chaps copping off with chavs, cricket is a game for gentlemen going out with goddesses.”
Minki van der Westhuizen shot to fame when she started dating South African cricket captain Graeme Smith. Her talents and celeb status have seen her grace the covers of FHM and Cosmo, feature in the swimwear edition of Sports Illustrated and land the job of Guess jeans girl. She’s now been named as the girl cricket fans would most like to get caught out with.
The four runners-up are beauties that could bowl over any cricket fan.
In second place came Madhi Muralitharan, firmly establishing her as the Indian subcontinent’s leading lady.
Meanwhile Australia struck an early blow in the build up to the Ashes series this winter, with two WAGs in the top five; namely Haley Bracken (Mrs Nathan Bracken) and Liz Kemp (Mrs Brett Lee). England’s sole representative in the top five is Kevin Pietersen’s girlfriend Jessica Taylor, the star of pop group Liberty X, who was voted the world’s fourth fittest cricket cutie.
Girls who were run out of the top five include Georgie Willis (‘Mrs Simon Katich’), Rachel Flintoff (Mrs Andrew Flintoff), Natasha Berridge (‘Mrs Chris Gayle’) and Thandeki Ntini (Mrs Makhaya Ntini).
The impact Stick Cricket has had amongst young male professionals has led to accusations that the free online game has negatively affected the GDP of Great Britain and Australia. Chris Berry continues, “The online debate about cricket WAGs has compounded an already serious problem for businesses of time wasting at work due to Stick Cricket. The Stick Cricket community has been hit for six by the beauty of cricket’s wives and girlfriends.”
