"I don't mean talking aggressively or showing aggressive body language. That's exactly the opposite of what aggressive or positive cricket is all about. A few of the Indians have reacted very much with aggressive body language and trying to force themselves upon us, and I think the way some of them are playing their cricket that they have also misinterpreted what aggressive cricket means.
"I suppose if some of the players don't understand it, a lot of people watching the game in the stands or at home don't understand it either. It's not jumping up and down, sledging, giving people send-offs and that sort of stuff. When the Australian team talks about playing aggressively, we are committing ourselves to playing hard: there's nothing given and there's nothing asked to be given." http://content-ind.cricinfo.com/indvaus/content/current/story/313999.html
Sreesanth"s agression is good but he should be agressive without being offensive. Taunting a batsman after he is out is offensive and he should not do that. Moreover it should not adversely affect his performance. But the Aussies deserve to get a taste of their own medicine. Those who criticise sreesanth don't say anything about the sledging of the Aussies.
It is very funny to note that a good majority of the readers are very upset with the way Sreesanth behaved on the field. They call him names and abuse him on this forum. When you readers just cannot control your feelings about him in this forum and you all abuse him and insult him , what right do you have to criticise him for his behaviour in the field where he fighting for survival. First let us,the readers, behave decently on this discussion forum in a gentlemanly way and then start your constructive criticism.
Sreeshanth talks a big game. Unfortunately, his bowling doesnt match the size of his ego. According to him, fast bowling is all about staring at the batsman, what idiocy !
He should learn to stop gifting runs to our opposition. Then his antics can be accepted.
Please please support our team with full heart.They need all our support to fight against mighty Aussies. They can play best cricket only with our support in the form of good wishes and standing besides them.
