Ram Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 This is one occasion where I think the presence of IPL may actually end up hurting Indian cricket. Inside of him, surely Sreesanth must know that he isn’t really cut out for the shorter formats (if he doesn’t realize it after being walloped around so often for so long, he will NEVER realize it). But he knows that if he chooses to opt out of ODIs/T20s and focus only on test cricket (which is probably the right thing to do, from his own perspective and India’s), then that would mean an automatic disqualification from the lucrative IPL contracts. How would any franchize be compelled to play 100s of 1000s of dollars for a player who thinks he isn’t even good enough to be in the national ODI and T20 team? But bit by bit, all the negative publicity and criticism he has endured from both the media and fans alike will begin to take a toll.
Tigerbait Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Sreesanth should never have been put in that position and Dhoni knows this now. The guy came in to play the biggest game of his life low on match practice and confidence. I am surprised he didn't get decked harder than he did.
maaki Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 We are very satisfied with Sreesanth and have no desire to anymore.. Selectors please send him on a one way ticket to the moon

Their weak middle order meant they couldn't afford to lose wickets. It kinda worked at the start. But he didn't look like getting a break through either.I am glad he went only at 6.5 .
desi pride 1234 Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 i was a huge supporter of sreesanth in icf. he let me down,. hey, but still he played the finals and india won the world cup. anyone marked my words?:winky:
Fontaine Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Send him to England. That will turn his life around. It made Zaheer the devastating bowler he is today. uh, he already went to play in county cricket for warwickshire when Donald was the bowling coach just two years ago. The result? He still sucks. Alan Donald: "First of all, his training habits are not good and the way he goes on to the field need to change. Then, he doesn't put enough time on specifics."
