Monty stormed into the hearts of the British public and ethnic minorities across the world earlier this year as he showed off his bowling skills in the tests against Pakistan. Following this success, he has become a role model for thousands of young Sikhs as well as budding cricketers showing that his beliefs and his love for sport can co-exist without compromise. His skills as a bowler meant even those who do not share his Sikh beliefs were impressed by his outstanding ability. |
