 Pollock

Shaun Pollock was selected Super International Performer in the first edition of ESPN Star Sports interactive show ' Super Selector'. The show is hosted by media personality Nasseruddin Shah. 

The South African captain and all-rounder scored 419 points, closely followed by Kenyan all rounder Thomos Odoyo with 414 points. Pollock's fellow comrade in arms Lance Kluesener and Jacques Kallis also feature with 359 and 335 points respectively. India's Sachin Tendulkar led the way with the bat with 397 points followed by the skipper Sourav Ganguly with 390. Andy Flower was numero uno behind the stumps with 271 points.

Harbhajan Singh scored 297 points while Ajit Agarkar had 243. The only man to take ten wickets in a test match innings Anil Kumble scored rather low with 183 points.

28 year old Amit Walinjkar won the contest on the first episode, which received a record 118,000 entries. As part of the prize, he makes a trip to safari land and gets to be a part of the commentary team along with former opening batsmen Sunil Gavaskar, Geoffrey Boycott and Navjot Sidhu.
His winning team included South African opener Gary Kirsten, Indian master blaster Virender Sehwag, and Kenyan Martin Suji.

According to Manu Sawhney, managing director of ESPN Software India, "Super Selector has already set the World Records for the number of entries received as well as for the fastest "sign-up" rate for any similar on-line games conducted in the world." For November's game, 2,20,000 entries have already been received from aspirant super selectors, he said.

The show, which aired yesterday, will be repeated on 8 November at 5:30 pm.
