Martin Gough - BBC Sport journalist commenting on Monty regarding the 'beard of the year award'..:

"He's one of the front-runners for the award this year," said Flett.

"He may have a beard for slightly different reasons, but at the end of the day it's still a beard, and it's a magnificent beard.

"Obviously it's his bowling, but I think his beard may well play a role there

:T: :T: :T: :T:

I didn't sleep whole night ..watched entire match though it ended at 10:30 in morning after having started at 2:30 just kept praying for monty throughout though i was a bit disappointed that he couldn't take any of the last two wickets but still his bowling figures were far more than impressive. It was a delight to watch him. things became interesting right from the time news spread that this guy was playing. You could see the attention he was getting from media. Now and again camera focussed monty and he was always smiling, buzzing wiv confidence and raring to go commentators were amazed by his energy levels and the energy that his inclusion had brought into the team. And things became more interesting when he started bowling ...first over on the spot - a maiden, and a wicket off the very first ball of next over which brought end to the first session.And that sent signals that the first day was poised for some exciting cricket as monty -the montster, or montyt -he montastic had found his rhythm.

His mistimed jumps and all missed hi fives have become a trademark celebration and commentators never forget to mention this. And not to forget the tremendous pressure that he had on him as everyone was pushing for his inclusion, got nominated as finalist of sportperson of the year, petition being signed for his inclusion and tempers rising among former cricketers. All the former legendary cricketers like ian botham, bob willis, rodney marsh, nasser hussain, michael atherton, were very unhappy and critical of coach duncan fletcher regarding his exclusion. Ian botham even went on to describe coach duncan fletcher as "pig headed" for ommitting monty.The people just love him. Even australian media was supporting him and wanted him to play and asking english team management to get this guy in.After monty took five wickets and australian innings folded former australian batsman and current commentator said "spectators at waca (western australia cricket association ground) have fell in love with this guy" considering just few weeks back he was subjected to racial abuse. How quickly things change.

But one thing is for sure monty wins hearts more than anything else.... maywaheguru bless him.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
