Sreesanth has been in the eye of storm again in SA. Last time he did a break dance to Andre Nel, this time he has offered some staunch comments against Smith's mother and HArris's wife (as reported). This has invited him a lot of sledging from the South African fielders when he batted today in the first innings and a public dressing from his captain in media.
Not only this he was also booed by spectators when he stepped in to bat and he was cheered when he swung and had a miss.
The problem with this jerk is that he is a man of his own world. If he would bowl a snorter, the next he would ball a half volley giving a plate full of runs. He would bowl one unplayable delivery and the next one would be a full down the leg side. He got a 5-for in the first innings, his first after Kanpur 09,
He has his own rituals while delivering the overs or his own celebrations after taking a wicket. More often than not he would send off a batsman who is a petty no 11 or a batsman who has just defended a ball back to him.
All this while when he has his own rituals to follow he often ignores the situations of the match. Even if the team is running short of over rate and the captain faces suspension, this lad would continue his rituals which are just theatericals and nothing more. This just indicates he is no more a team man.
And if continues to find a place in the test team cos there are no more good players then he needs to justify the place with wickets to his name rather than the sledges or abuses!!
