Bigstar Interviews
Dale Steyn Exclusive Interview: World cricket's most exciting fast bowling prospect talks about his friendly rivalry with team-mates, his county experiences and how the current tour of England and later one in Australia will be a big test of his ability.
Dale Steyn has taken 78 wickets in his last 12 Test matches and is the quickest South African to reach 100 Test victims. Steyn is now leading a new and hungry brigade of pace bowlers in the South Africa team along with Morne Morkel and the more experienced Makhaya Ntini and Andre Nel. He is now seen as the team's main spearhead and has already held the number one spot in the world rankings this year to illustrate his meteoric rise. Bigstarcricket caught up with him at Taunton.

Bigstar Interviews
Adil Rashid Exclusive Interview: The third edition of Bigstarcricket's 'Young Players to Look Out For in 2008' series. 'Dilly' talks about how Terry Jenner, Shane Warne and Younis Khan have helped him, and his England ambitions.
Yorkshire’s leg-spinning all-rounder Adil Rashid, 20, is making a name for himself as the first candidate to bowl genuine leg-spin for England for almost a decade. He played for England Lions against the New Zealanders this month and although the campaign to promote him to the full England squad is gaining momentum, his county coach Martyn Moxon said he “needs to be left alone to play his cricket” because “he is not ready for international cricket yet”. Moxon and those close to him do not want him to be the next Chris Schofield, the last young leg-spinner picked by England in 2001. The rookie was released by his county four years after.
