Everyone is laughing at Sreesanth.
Justifiably.
But Fast bowlers are an emotional dichotomy.
Shaun Tait wants to rip heads off, but the stress of not doing so makes him sad.
Brett Lee wants to be a nice guy, but every now and then he forgets and bowls beamers.
Dale Steyn is South African.
Steve Harmison is part animal, part machine. Problem is, it’s a guinea pig and an electric tie organiser.
Shane Bond is made of Ice Cream, chocolate chip.
And Andre Nel cried when he hit Allan Donald in a domestic game.
That’s right Andre Nel, Sreesanth’s sick adopted brother, has also cried on the cricket field.
Sure his was because he smashed his idol in the face with an angry bouncer, not because a little girly man slapped him, but a cry is a cry.
Perhaps mentalist fast bowlers aren’t as tough as we always thought they were.
Maybe Thommo cries every time he mispronounces Glenn McGrath’s name.
Chances are Demon Fred Spofforth got upset every time he didn’t get a hat trick.
Fiery Fred Trueman may have reached for the tissues when the selectors overlooked him for a more “gentlemanly” chap.
Craig McDermott probably bawls every time he miss places his video camera.
Perhaps even the mighty Wes Hall cried when he broke Colin Cowdrey’s arm.
I guess fast bowlers do have feelings.
Who knew.
Richard Hadlee had no emotions; only an autistic recollection of his statistics and milestones. He never cried.Jrod, is Sreesanth related to Kim Hughes in any way?
Kapil Dev cried on Karan Thappar’s Hard Talk styled show; when KT got stuck into KD abt the match fixing allegations.
No.
Fast bowlers are big babies.Boon never cried even when he was black and blue. He’d get smashed in the body suck it in, waddle out to square leg, give the box a fiddle walk back again and cop some more.Fast bowlers never field at short leg or silly point. Why? because they are as soft as Brad Haddin’s lisp.Brett Lee sings sentimental pop songs and wishes he was a Backstreet Boy and spends more time at the hairdresser than in the nets. As an opening bat I reckon they are all emotional sissy boys who can dish it out but can’t take it. You’d never see Bill Lawry sook. Never. Ever. Even if a cat ate all his pigeons.
I’ve been wondering how India are going to find a way to blame Andrew Symonds and Ricky Ponting for this latest outburst between these two. Surely they were under extreme intimidation from these guys or something!Surely the BCCI has some grounds on which to protest against the Aussies.
