Sreesanth and leg spin

[kabira]

What is SS trying to achieve by practising leg spin during the nets. Dileep from cricinfo "Legspin and all that: Nasser Hussain had some withering things to say on air about Sreesanth's preparation, which apparently involved legspin bowling in the nets. The older players have managed fine without a coach to guide them but Sreesanth, eccentric at the best of times, seems to be struggling without a knowing voice in the ear. Zaheer Khan and RP Singh have both outbowled him in this series, and he needs to get his act together quickly. Abandoning legspin would be a start."

Lets not too overboard with out criticism of Sreesanth. He has been bowling well all the while and deserves a couple of off days. He did well in the english second innings.

kabira don't listen to nasser hussain.. sreesanth might have bowled couple of leggies in netz just for fun.. and nasser hussain got an idea of mentioning that thing when sreesanth was struggling.. just to increase frustration among Indian people.. ppl should not pay attention to such crap

He has got one bowler who is completely out of it - Sreesanth. I watched him practice this morning, he bowled legspin all the time, and that is nonsense. That was David Lloyd. When a player does something wrong, it is very fair to criticize him. Not practicing properly and then breaking down like that is certainly more than enough grounds for criticism and Nasser is perfectly right to mention his slack attitude.

how does anyone know sreesanth wasnt bowling leg spin on batsmans request ??

[King Tendulkar]

He was having a bit of fun in nets, nothing wrong with that. Nasser is an idiot! Desperate to prove to the english public that he is a coconut!

Sreesanth has to be careful. His visually aggressive and expressive attitude would have rubbed off many people in the wrong way. As long as he does well , those voices of hatred would keep quiet. Once his standards fall , they would start ridiculing him with comments like " This guy is fit for only loud-mouthing".. etc. Not that he would be any more concerned by it i guess. But still , he has to watch out. The higher you go , the harder you fall.
