He also takes a lot of wickets in ODI' date=' [b']he is compulsive wicket taker in all forms of the game. If MS had treated him right and gave him a proper run, that discipline would have come too, and with that better economy.
what exactly is a "compulsive wicket taker" :hysterical::hysterical: 53 ODIs and 27 Tests is not a proper run according to you? In Test also he has an economy rate of 3.62 after 27 matches and 3.52 in 69 first class matches so this shows that given more chances he would have leaked even more runs.
Nehra is a good ODI bowler and edged Sree out of selection for world cup. But Sree played at home in world cup final and said it was magical, not many cricketers will experience it, he is now a t20 and odi world cup winner.
that was only because Nehra (who had taken 2 wickets against Pak in semis and given away very few runs) was unfortunately injured.
Sree would have been automatic pace spearhead by now if dhoni and co looked after him. Still I have faith the kerala fast bowler will get in.
he's not a baby!!! he's an international cricketer and if he cannot manage his temperament even after playing international cricket for 5-6 years then he should concentrate more on his dancing as he has a far better future there.

He didn't play regularly for those tests and odi's, it was spread out. Also Dhoni continuly undermines him and publicly has insulted him several times. Captain's backing is key. If Sree had Ishant backing he would be much much better than Ishant of today.

and what exactly is a captain supposed to do when a player continuously gets into altercations with opposition players and acts oddly on the field and continues to appeal again and again and gain and then on top of all that leaks runs!!!

He has that "fire in his belly" like how Merv Hughes or Siddle do. Nothing wrong with aggression on the field, Santh is a competitive player and shouldn't change for anyone else. Dhoni probably just want sidha sadda kind of players. This is a ranbhoomi, it is about winning, not personal preference. One British Indian guy I spoke to here said it was because in that time only Sree was India's fast bowler and Dhoni didn't like keeping to him as it would highlight how crap a keeper he was. I don't think this is true but deffo MS brought down Sree. Also didn't give this wicket taker the best fields. Mahi knows this and Sree knows it too.

and all the other young bowlers around the world have always played consistently and have never been dropped, have they?? You're talking as if this joker is a special case in being dropped or having played his Tests/ODIs in a long time period.

Nothing wrong with having "fire in the belly" , in fact its a good thing. But it seems to be that this is about the only good thing about him currently and all that "fire in the bel" only comes out in form of run leaking deliveries!! You're talking about sidha-sadha players then just look at guys like Virat Kohli - he's not exactly a seedha-sadha type of players but he has performance to back it up so nobody says anything. Yeah right.......................BTW I'm currently watching (in the ongoing Windies series) that "crap" keeper Dhoni keeping to Umesh Yadav and Varun Aaron, both faster than Sree but it seems to be that Dhoni is doing pretty well :laugh:

Some other guy did, read above, I also didn't agree with it. Yeah he does keep to Yadav and Aaron now well. But we were talking about past. Oh and he has just dropped off Aaron, tune jinx mardi :)

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zc_2TMsQKo]Sreesanth Dhoom - YouTube[/ame] Good video of Sree due to: 1-Making Wasim Akram stand up and "dance," all he does is clap and looks stupid :hysterical: 2-Made Bhajji angry as he showed he is not only a world class fast bowler but also has the smooth moves. Multi talented. Dhoom dhoom Santh. Mods please keep this here, this is the "Kerala Express Watch Thread" and while he recovers from injury we Santh fans will relive old memories, whether it's a 5 for v SA or else. Thank you :icflove:

Yes. He can bowl some very good balls' date=' but he does it so rarely and so interspliced with crap that it would seem they come out by accident.[/quote'] If Sreesanth was playing in the current test, he would have gone on for 4-5 RPO, while Ishant gave 82 odd runs in 32 overs.
