Sreesanth always gets the raw end of the stick

Nehra also bowled superbly against Pakistan especially in the death, bowling yorker after yorker making their batsmen look completely stupid where he bowled 10 overs for 33 for 2 wickets. He gets a lot of criticism and sometimes deserves it but Nehra has suffered more serious injuries than any recent fast bowler yet he shows the heart, dedication and commitment to keep coming back to try his best. If Sreesanth only had half of that kind of commitment he would be an amazing bowler but he doesn't. And yes we do have other options. They just have to be groomed instead of giving this donkey more and more ODI chances when he clearly doesn't deserve it. And stop making excuses for this clown. At first you said it's because bowlers in their early days can have bad spells but that clearly isn't the case for Sree who's been sucking in ODIs for the past 6 years. 44.1 Nehra to Wahab Riaz, no run, 81.2 mph, a very full delivery outside off bursts past the outside edge as Riaz tries to drive 44.2 Nehra to Wahab Riaz, no run, 80.9 mph, what is it with the left-arm quicks today? Riaz takes his cue from the Zaheer/Nehra school of batting, backing away to be beaten flailing outside off Mid-on is up, long-off, deep cover, third man, fine leg and deep midwicket are on the boundary 44.3 Nehra to Wahab Riaz, no run, 82.3 mph, bouncer! Again Riaz was making room, Nehra followed him with the bouncer and he was forced to duck Phani is nipping the SRT debate in the bud. "@Pradeep - Totally disagree with you. India won the match 33 times when Sachin had hit a century and lost only 15 times when he crossed 100." 44.4 Nehra to Wahab Riaz, no run, 81.8 mph, another dot ball! Riaz clears the left leg, Nehra hurls down a low, dipping full toss wide of off and it slips past the bat 44.5 Nehra to Wahab Riaz, OUT, 79.1 mph, there's another one! Full and straight, Riaz swings mightily across the line but all he can do is send the ball straight up in the air, an easy catch for Tendulkar at cover. India are just two wickets away from a World Cup final. Pakistan are still alive, but only just. The pressure really told on Riaz there, all those dot balls made him feel as though he absolutely had to hit the boundary Wahab Riaz c Tendulkar b Nehra 8 (16m 14b 1x4 0x6) SR: 57.14 44.6 Nehra to Misbah-ul-Haq, 1 run, 80.5 mph, low full toss, Misbah cracks it to mid-on and they charge through for one "If anyone deserved wicket today it is surely Nehra. Superb bowling Nehra. Take a bow. People will say another master stroke from Dhoni." I suppose they'll have to, Swaraj. Nehra to bowl his last over. Misbah asks for a change of gloves. Long-off, third man and midwicket are out on the boundary, everyone else in the ring 46.1 Nehra to Umar Gul, OUT, 81.0 mph, gone! Full, swinging, and Gul is struck flush on the foot as he swipes across the line. He asks for a review but to no avail, that's stone dead. Gul's unhappy day comes to an end. India are just one wicket away from a dream final Umar Gul lbw b Nehra 2 (9m 3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 66.66 46.2 Nehra to Saeed Ajmal, no run, 81.3 mph, full, hooping through the air around off stump and it's tapped sheepishly to point 46.3 Nehra to Saeed Ajmal, no run, 81.3 mph, back of a length, too quick for Ajmal and he's late on the pull. The ball goes nowhere "@Dave: Banging our heads against the wall and tearing our hair out." Poor Talya. 46.4 Nehra to Saeed Ajmal, 1 run, 78.6 mph, full again, the ball takes a thick edge as Ajmal tries to angle it down and rolls away through gully 46.5 Nehra to Misbah-ul-Haq, 1 run, 81.9 mph, Misbah opens his stance and pushes to mid-on, rushing across for a single 46.6 Nehra to Saeed Ajmal, no run, 80.6 mph, high full toss outside off, Ajmal runs it down to third man but Misbah says no to the single - he's got to keep the strike if Pakistan's slim hopes are to be kept alive The end of Nehra's contribution with the ball, good effort from him
Oh yeah nehra shows great heart dedication by not playing in domestic cricket and just coming to international tournaments and playing first few matches as practice matches and getting hammered,thank god nehra is out.R.I.P Nehra
