Sreesanth is once again creating headache for Indian captain Dhoni. Do you think that sree should be kept out of the team for his faulty short tempered behaviour?? Sreesanth has already created his impact on world cricket, but do you think he can change his behaviour? or do you think Dhoni's advice is waste?? well many fans may be wishing that sreesnath should change his behaviour on the field and play well then only he get more chances. But i personally know many fans who say that a FAST BOWLER should be like this only, he should show some energy in the field, and they shows me some video clips in which Akthar and Bret lee doing sledging with batsmans. even dyle steyn do sledging, but all the captains of the above specified teams were not irritated with the sledging of their players on the field. surley India is not a team which do sledging and win matches, thats not our culture, so sree should change his behaviour and become a good man and deliver the best, thats what i wishes. but I dont think Sree will change his attitude or his short tempered behaviour, how many of you hope that sreesanth will play in the team withour making headache for the captain??

Sreesanth is a good cricketer with a lot of aggression. I feel that he needs to tone down his aggression and he will be a more improved cricketer.

Hi Venkit! Some people just don't have control over themselves at times. It is not that they do it consciously. Subconsciously they do it. It takes time to change. It is like asking an introvert to become an extrovert. It doesn't happen easily. It takes constant effort. So Sreeshanth has to put some conscious, continuous effort to control his emotions. I too don't think he will change much. But he might be able to minimize to an extent. Happy Mylotting!

Hi venkit Sreesanth is NOT creating a headache for anyone in my opinion.He plays genuinely and plays with passion that is missing in most other players.But Dhoni has a problem with him always because he way of playing is different from Sreesanths. If dhoni is a good captain he would know the best thing for him to do is let sreesanth play his own natural game.There was no one there to criticize him when he made his debut and he performed with flying colours. Its really sad that everyone keeps criticizing when he makes a conversation with the batsman in a friendly manner.Its part and parcel of the game.The batsmen who then get out its their problem.But you can;'t blame a fellow for trying can you? I really admire his bowling because he bowls to get wickets.When he is on song he is a treat to watch! Also when others around him have done far worse sledging and gotten away with it,why is it when he does a bit of chit chat there is a bunch of people who want to kick him down and make him feel as if he is the biggest idiot around?? If people keep on criticizing him we might just miss out on an opportunity to see the growth of a genuine fast bowler who has got the heart and soul to bowl aggressively.

Thats what i have pointed in this discussion. there are many fast bowlers who do sledging even to Sachin. steyn,akthar,bret lee and many..... but these guys mange to get away without being caught. and most of these players are better bowlers and are permenant meber in the team. so first sree should bowl well and make his place fixed in the team, secondly if he is not able to bowl without the kind of aggression he is having, then he should learn how to sledge. either he should stop sledging otherwise he should learn how to sledge without being caught.

Sreesanth is a special character...isn't he...he will stick to his antics and he won't change a bit, not for his captain...if at all he will change...he will change for himself and should be for good...even now if he is within the limits then i don't see any harm...he is a very passionate guy i've ever witnessed.

surely he is passionate to play cricket for india, but if he wishes it should last long then he should control himself.

hi venkit,i personally feel that sleding on the fiels by a fast bowler is important in todays world of cricket.but for doing a sleding the bowler should have some impect on the batsman you can see all the bowler who are famous for sleding they are good with their bowling and well settled in their team well as sreesath doesnt have permenet place in indian side also we see his past he hasnt done well for indian team in thisa condition first sreesant needs to prove himself and make himself permenent in side then if he does sleding that would be great. and i think if praveen kumar doesnt get unfit sreesant would never be able to be in world cup squad so it is fortunate for him and he should use this chance.

exactly thats the point, all the fast bowlers who do sledging in international cricket are good in their performance. they al are famous also. here sree is not even a permanent member in the team, but yet he go for sledging.

i feel that aggression is required in today's highly competitive game. but then, anything which is too much is not good. i have seen sreesanth doing very good when he is within himself. but ones he is too agressive, he looses completly. he tried to do too many things, looses his focus and that affects his performance. and then what is the use of such aggression, if it is not helping you. sachin is an aggressive player. but he never over does it. he knows that the best aggression is to show with the bat. talking, making faces etc are of no use. if a bowler is showing aggression, show him how good a batsman you are and he will start giving respect to you. and this is what sreeshanth should learn.

you cant never ever compare Sachin with sreesanth, he is very good player with good values and character. he never shows his emotion outside. compare with someone like harbajan, or gautam gambir who sledges with in the limit. Sachin always give respect to good balls, but sree never give respect to a good shot played by batsman. sree should learn that good quality to accept the opposition.

Hivenkit, Shreesant is a bowler who expects every delivery of his spell should out a bats man. It was right in the beginning that he was not in the squad and now being inside is creating headache for every one. If he is a good bowler the batsman too is better and the equation is you can not out the batsman and shree indulges in filthy words and body postures. If he is rested for around six month may be he would get a lesson.

I dont think that he willlearn even if he is rested for 1 year. its his unchangable behaviour. surely he should give respect to the batsmans also.

I can't understand why all are against Sreesanth.Srresanth is just doing what other bowlers are doing against team India.And even then all are against him.You showed certain examples who used to sledge under pressured situations.I can't understand why when it comes to an Indian- the sledging creates problem.

we the indians wish to play and win matches in a good manner, not by sledging, simply because we have many times faced the bad effects of sledging. and sree dont know how to sledge, in past dhoni had made a comment that. Indian players should learn how to sledge, that should be the advice to sree. sree can show the temprament, but it should not cross the limit, but he cross the limit always.

sreeshanth is an keralite and i am also a keralite.. but i dont like him because he dont know to behave and boasting himself about his talents anyway he got much right that once he was not included in the team right..?

hai friend, Sreesanth is having self boasting personality, i think he got it from his mother. and now he is in the playing eleven also. I think he or his mother has done some [malayalam]-"chathan seva or kudothram" first praveen got injured and now nehra also got injured.

A little bit of aggression by a fasr baller is acceptable. A mild fast baller like Srinath is rare in cricket. But too much of sledging and unnecessary monkey acts irritates not only the players on the field but even the spectators watching the match on TV. It is high time Sree Santh know about this. He has come back to the team with little bit of luck he should honour it and try to be permanent member as first choice.

ya he got into the squad due to the injury happened to praveen kumar and now got into the team due to the injury happened to nehra. surely he should concentrate more on cricket. there are many things he can learn from his senior team meber or coach. he should try learn how to bowl reverse swing, inswinging yorker and so on. istead of doing these kind of usefull things he is wasting his energy by sledging.
