Adil Rashid, Yorkshire - one to watch in 2007

Give England cricket fans a leg-spinner and they flock together muttering excitedly about 'the chosen one'. Give them an all-rounder and they genuflect and dab incense all over themselves. Given them a leg-spinning all-rounder and they'll be sacrificing second team wicketkeepers before you know it.

We're proud to be among them. Adil Rashid is like some supernatural blending of Shane Warne and Sachin Tendulkar.

Note to Adil Rashid:

Sorry, mate. There's no way you can live up to this. Just give it a crack and we promise we'll always be nice to you, even if you get bowled by a straight one from Andrew Hall.
