Down boy...down....



S Sreesanth ko gussa kyon aatha hai???....seriously, whats the deal with this fella?? I cant seem to fathom what the dude is so pissed off about...the way I see it , he should be real happy things are as they are for him...i mean, he is in the Indian cricket team, doin fairly well and all....but he seems really unhappy bout somethin...

How else do u explain the Planet of the Apes ( Tim Burton' s version cause it sucked) impressions he seems to give out once in a while...i first noticed in the West Indies when he got Lara out...the world's greatest batsman was sent off with Sreesanth doing his version of a B movie cabaret dance from the 80s and dare I say, Silk Smitha seemed far more elegant that the Kochi stud!! We all know what happened with Andre Nel ( that was fine) but I didnt quite understand why Sree was knocking on Yamraj's door like a distraught widow after gettin Mattie Hayden out in the 20/20 semis. But the icin on the cake was the King Kong ( the Jap versions cause they sucked) impression he served to Andy Symonds nonetheless after Symonds has tonked the Indian bowling for around 70 odd runs....

Cricket pundits from all over have their views on the Kochi boy but our pal seems to be nonchalant and seems to be enjoying all the attentions. And why not? All the geriatrics has put him in the public eye with TV cameras trained on him (even when he isnt playing) and I hear that he is already getting a lot of endorsement deals....and no doubts the wannabe hep girls from my hometown of Kochi will be finding him "cute" or "sexy" or some shit like that....

The only problem here is that Sreesanth just doesnt look gud doin this stuff...to any intelligent eye, he is as much a fish outta water as Britney Spears would be at a nunnery...I mean, does our dude really think that he is gonna live his whole career like this.....

And all this drama would look a little better it he was actually a regular in the team rather that a freak sideshow...maybe he can get some cues from the Aussie left armer Mitchell Johnson, an infinitely quieter man and a much better bowler...he rarely spoke a work but consistently put the ball in the right places, swung it well and is now in the Aussie first eleven....

History will remember your wickets not your dances..dude....
