Robert Atkins
I am convinced, the way one plays chess always reflects the player's personality. If something defines his character, then it will also define his way of playing. Vladimir Kramnik

Bob Balaban
Harbhajan is thrown the ball after drinks, and he opts to go round the wicket to Pietersen. Again, there's little menace in the pitch to worry KP, who plays with the spin to deep midwicket for an ambled single.

Bruce Beresford
