With the decade at an end, skysports.com has assembled its Noughties' Hot 100 - a century of stand-out sporting moments.

It covers all sports, but seeing as we have so many experts to call on, we asked our commentators and columnists to come up with their very own Top 10 from their sport.

And they have picked out one Moment of the Decade, their own personal highlight from the Noughties - just scroll down to the bottom and watch the video.

Flintoff (centre) was inspirational in the 2005 Ashes

Here, cricket commentator David Lloyd gives his selection, in no particular order...

Tendulkar's century after the Mumbai bombings - 2008

The circumstances made this a very special innings. England had gone home because of those terrible bombings in Mumbai and I know Sachin was thrilled that they decided to go back. The two teams put on a cracking game in Chennai - and in the end it was the right result. Tendulkar's century was very emotional and the hair was standing up on the back of my neck during the interviews afterwards.

Yuvraj Singh's six sixes in an over - 2007

I was on commentary with Ravi Shastri when Yuvraj Singh hit six sixes off one Stuart Broad over and we just couldn't believe the distances he was getting on the ball. It was just one of the great moments in cricket. That also signalled that Twenty20 had taken cricket by storm and that the players were embracing the new format.

Andy Caddick's four wickets in one over - 2000

This was a special over. On his day, Andy Caddick was a lad who could be as good as anything in the world when everything clicked. It clicked that day against the West Indies at Headingley and the crowd went wild. The Test match finished in less than two days and it was a wonderful performance from Caddick. Real special.

Brian Lara's 400 - 2004

This was like watching a well-oiled, well-serviced machine in progress. I was on commentary that day and I knew after the first half-dozen balls that on that pitch and in those circumstances he was never going to get out. He was on top of his game, he was totally focused and it was a fine innings.

Kevin Pietersen's 158 at The Oval - 2005

This was one of those Des Lynam jobs: how do they do that? Pietersen was whacking Shane Warne into the stands against the spin and it was the first time I've seen Warne powerless. That 158 ensured England had won the Ashes and took Kevin Pietersen to the level of superstardom. It was as good an innings as I've seen.

Andrew Flintoff at Edgbaston - 2005

People will always talk about the 2005 Ashes and what epitomised that series was the sight of Andrew Flintoff steaming in. He produced that irresistible late spell at Edgbaston and as the match came to an end you just knew it was THE moment. He seized the moment, he seized the day and it provided an amazing match.

Virender Sehwag's 293 against Sri Lanka - 2009

He scored 293, but it was the speed in which he did it that impressed me. People were openly saying it was too easy - but he made it look easy. He produced a perfect innings because he got the runs so quickly that he gave his bowlers time to bowl their opponents out comfortably on an easy pitch to win the game. The fact he fell short of 300 doesn't matter, it was the speed. People say anyone could do it on a flat pitch... no they can't!

Nathan Astle's 222 against England at Christchurch - 2002

At the time it was the fastest 200 on record and even though New Zealand lost the game, it deserves a place in this list. England left them around 500 to win, but Nasser Hussain will tell you he genuinely thought they were going to end up getting them. He was powerless, he didn't know where to put the fielders or who to bowl - and that was because of the excellence of Astle. He'd always been dangerous on his day... and this was his day.

Accrington win the Lancashire League and Cup double - 2008

I was going to pick Steve Waugh's hundred on one leg at The Oval in 2001, but that will have to be number 11 because I need to make room for my club Accrington doing the double. They'd nearly gone out of business and had almost gone into extinction - so to do that was a lovely moment from a personal point of view.
