Symonds: Sreesanth Has White Line Fever

Shanthakumaran Sreesanth is the MOST aggressive player that the Indian Cricket Team has seen in ages. He leads the new string of aggressive Indian players like Gambhir, Uthappa, Yuvraj and others. "Tit for Tat, either with the ball or with the bat." (Just made that up lol)

Sreesanth - can he control himself?

Australia all-rounder Andrew Symonds has played down speculation that he does
not like India fast bowler Shanthakumaran Sreesanth.

Symonds and
Sreesanth clashed several times during the recent one-day series in India, and
Symonds believes the young fast bowler doesn't always know how to control
himself.
"He's just got white line fever," Symonds told the Daily Telegraph.
"He has got it that bad he couldn't rein himself in when he lost it a bit.

"It will be interesting to see how he is received over here. I don't
dislike him. Off the ground he was always polite. I saw him in the hotel and he
always said g'day. But, as I said, he's just got white line fever and sometimes
he just loses control."

This is the latest attack by the aussies on the Indian team, rather on pacer S Sreesanth. It shows that they don't know what to expect from us.



In this topic, we take a closer look at S Sreesanth. He's the live wire in the team. Doesn't like taking advice from anyone and he has a good thinking bowling brain. Sometimes (most of the times), he goes off the path. Highly passionate and emotional about his cricket, and really proud to be a part of it.

Sreesanth was born on February the 6th, 1983, in a place called Kothamangalam in Kerala, India.

Here's Wiki's description of Sree

He is a right-arm fast-medium-pace bowler and a right-handed tail-ender batsman. He is also noted for his exuberant and emotional behaviour, especially whilst
appealing and celebrating wickets. Such trademark behaviour has seen him
frequently fined for violating player conduct guidelines of the ICC. He is known to bowl at speeds mostly around 140kmph.

Sometimes, he tries too hard, and fails to perform, and then is given a rest. Also, his comeback match would always be in dire situations, where he cannot produce his best performance. The result? Dropped again. =\. This doesn't make ANY sense to me. Imagine how the selection method would be taking place. Bah.

Sreesanth studies psychology at university when not playing cricket, and speaks English, Tamil, and Hindi in addition to Malayalam native to Kerala. In his early years, he was a break dancer, becoming a national champion when he was in the eighth grade!

Here are some instances of his Enthusiasm :


1. Sreesanth-Nel
2. Sreesanth-Symonds
3. Sreesanth-Pieterson (The Beamer Incident)
4. Sreesanth Wicket Dance
5. Sreesanth absurdity
6. Sreesanth-Hayden



The list is endless ;)


This can go on for a long time. We NEED a charachter like him in the team. Hope to see many others following him :D
