Sreesanth has officially lost the plot.
I’m all for sledging. Hell it was probably my best cricketing skill. But sledging as 12th man, dude your not even in the 11. And the bloke your sledging just smashed your team all around the park.
Sledging is about picking your moments, and delivery.
Error 1 Delivery & Timing.
If your so angry at the world you think you need to sledge from 12th man don’t go up into his face and say haha, now you have lost the game you big poo head.
Just as you casually move past him, you say just loud enough that he will hear it, whoops, big mistake, or damn, there goes that game. The only proof of the sledge should be Symonds looking over his shoulder and swearing.
Error 2 target.
Why on Johnny Cash’s green earth would you want to fire Symonds up further?
He’s averaging 65 in this series at better than a run a ball. Is this the man you want to give more reasons to kick your teams ass.
It’s like poking a bull before you get in the ring with it. Actually its like having sex with a girl and yelling out another girls name and holding on for the best sex ever. It seems like a good idea at the time, it’s only afterwards you realise you may have made the mistake.
Most importantly this is hurting India. Sreesanth is firing up the two batsmen (if you attack Roy you attack Hayden) who can destroy India.
Other than these two there is only one other batsmen averaging over 25 for the series.
So Sreesanth take them out for a beer, take them to a Bollywood premiere, propose to Roy (he’s single now) for fucks sake, India needs you to grow the fuck up.
