I have removed a lot of the bias in the article, phrases like "unwavering accuracy, uncanny ability to swing the ball both ways" seemingly "shaun pollock is the greatest thing since sliced bread", and replaced the POV tag with a TONE one. I have also left citation tags for cite some of the less extravagant statements which still need verification. He is an excellent bowler, but the main section did read like a fan site or a blog. :) SGGHspeak!16:15, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Much of the article seems to be written as though Pollock were still an active player, and also contains things like "He also recently received the SA Player's Player award and the SA ODI Player of the Year Award". Given he retired close to 8 years ago (as of this writing), can any of his playing achievements be considered 'recent'?
