Worst Interview I have seen

http://content.cricinfo.com/wac/content/story/207301.html

Worst cricketer interview I have ever seen on cricket.org... do they read before they publish this crap? I am sure the author is on crack or something.... I wrote a ":@-ish" email to the editors but I am sure they didnt read it and did not care to reply (at least auto-reply)... shows how much they care about their "valued" readers. The only thing good about Cricinfo is their coverage - they go places. Otherwise the quality of the articles, the website itself, the (not so) live scores really suck. You would know if you had tried to access a newly uploaded popular article, specially using the 'us.cricinfo.com' domain. I always had to change it to 'uk' or 'pak' mirrors. Also the live scores are as alive as their grandparents.

Look at the following question:

Are u religious?

Now what type of question is this to ask in a cricket interview???

Have you got over the duck on your ODI debut [in the ICC Champions Trophy, 2004, against West Indies]?

So what is he trying to do here? Embarass the chap?

How much of a part did mohalla cricket play in your game?

Ok this might be a valid question but still I think its pretty stupid. "It gave me a chance to check out your [censored] daughter every evening"

Has your last name been a topic of jokes?

This is the worst one. Doesn't the freakin' moron know that it is a very respectable surname in all of Punjab (Indian side too)?? We can make his surname mean really bad things in our language :@.... wanna try??

Youngsters like Michael Clarke and Kevin Pietersen have straightaway hit the big time in their first season. What do you think as a rookie yourself?

Again! Now what is Butt supposed to say here? Be humbled etc?

You saw Clarke during the series in Australia. What did you think of him?

Now who the heck is Butt to comment on other players in his interview? He is not a legend (a la Wasim Akram/Gavaskar etc) to ask comments from... he is a young man out to make a name for himself.

You said about your dismissal in the first innings of the Mohali Test that “your feet got stuck in the toilet”. What did that mean?

This shows how much he knows about the cricket lingo and press reporting. Go find out for yourself moron. I think this is another "cheeky" comment to embarass him rather than a valid question.

Any mistakes you’ve made?

"Yeah! This interview with you idiot!"
