The Observer-Mobitel Most Popular Schoolboy Cricketer contest is hotting up steadily with voters taking a great interest in promoting their favorite schoolboy cricketers to achieve the highest milestone in grabbing the Most prestigious Cricket Award which paves the way for them to gain the National cap in the very near future.
With few more weeks ahead for the final count the contest is heading for a stiff battle between the present leaders. It is left for the voters to make the maximum within these weeks to send in as many as possible to see their favorites achieve the milestone they are looking for.
