Now that Usain Bolt has let the world know that he always wanted to play cricket and wanted to be like Waqar Younis…we might actually see him play cricket!!!
**"Usain Bolt has spoken of his desire to play in the Big Bash League this year, and the Melbourne Stars are keeping the door open to potentially sign him. The possibility was first raised in June when Bolt was interviewed on Australian TV by Eddie McGuire, a presenter who is also the Stars president, and the team’s marquee player Shane Warne has also asked Bolt whether he was interested.**Fresh from an Olympic campaign in which he won three gold medals, Bolt said at the weekend he was still open to the idea. “He [Shane Warne] contacted me and asked me about if I am serious and if I really want to do it then he can put in a few words that should get it done,” Bolt said on Channel Nine."
Makes sense. Usain Bolt's sporting life apparently started with him wanting to play cricket. He was a fast bowler, but not particularly good at it. His cricket coach notice how fast he was and recommended that Usain talked to a friend of his who coached sprinting...... and the rest is history.
