fineleg Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 He had the right skills and natural ability to be nippy medium fast or fast-medium bowler. What a waste of skills by becoming a dancing donkey instead!? I am ruing what could have been if we had a fit and firing Sreesanth, along with BK and a third pacer. Sreesanth didnt care (not half as much as we icf-ers care), and threw it all away. Oh well.
Old guy Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 He had same problem our current guys are having Yadav is even more promising and shami has potential too but it will take some time and none of these guys lose their head like sreesanth..so there is hope at least so no seen to glorify cricketer who fixed matches and was dumb
kubrickian Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 That guy was a nutcase and idiots like him will never make it in test cricket. Let him do dance shows and reality shows or whatever crap he is doing.

Oh well.[/quote'] We need one pacer in a 3 man pace attack to be fast or express depending on the definition..Lesson learnt is we cannot play both Yadav and Aaron just for the sake of them bowling fast...was hoping Yadav to be the guy who adds the skill to his natural pace...done a commendable job in patches but has been pathetic in the 2nd innings,..benefit of doubt to him though...happens to the best once in a while
Vilander Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Sreesanth had awesome seam position. If we can somehow add that to Ishant, we will have a bowler.

I can't understand how a player representing the nation can't be disciplined by a powerful board like the BCCI. They should have straightaway told him to take his antics elsewhere if he wanted to be part of the team. He was behaving like a spoilt kid even after playing many matches for the country.

Oh well.[/quote'] Rant start: Don't be like Pakis who overrate to the hilt every tom, dick and harry player of theirs' once he is banned or injured. Acc to them Amir was the greatest thing since sliced bread whereas he was in fact a very weak one dimensional bowler prone to injuries due to his built. The truth is that SreeSanth was a very brainless bowlers who couldn't put 2 good balls in a row together. The only thing he had was a good seam position but there is no point to that when you are landing that on short of a good length at 135kph and therefore being taken to the cleaners by the batsman facing him. In addition to this, his lack of discipline both on and off the field made him a liability at the best of times. He was in a clutch of exciting youngsters like him, Raina, Munaf and RP brought by Greg Chappell and that generation typified what is wrong with any aspiring sportsperson and hence failed to live up to their so-called overhyped potential. Sreesanth got enough chances and there is no one to blame here but he himself. Was afforded enough chances and support and if he cant put his thick head to the task then no one else can be responsible and it proves that he was never cut out for the top. So in conclusion, he achieved all that he could.
