'The Aussies should be worried I am coming' - Sreesanth

not being as good as McGrath doesn't mean that his behavior should be more harshly castigated.
No, indeed, and no-one is saying it should. Simply that it looks worse when you make bold (TSTL) pre-match\series statements without years of performance behind you than it does when you make 'em with said years of performance.

The main difference is, McGrath didn't start doing that until he'd been established as a bowler of the very highest class for a good few years.
right on i agree with all of these comments from Mr. Richard..

lol:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: i love this guy sreesanth, i think he is great for cricket and cant wait to go out this one day series to watch him get into the batsmen a bit. lol
like Nel from SA he doesnt mind giving a bit and i like it. he is what was missing from the test series for me to really feel a competative spirit about the game.
bring it on Sreeanth, though im an aussie i cant help but smile and support you lol go get em.....!

Yes after tonights effort I think the Aussies will be ****ting broken glass.

If you are going to make big statements you need to back them up and tonight the loudmouth was ordinary.

Get a hair cut and get a real job i say.

Didnt think he bowled that badly actually, much as the guy is messed up he has talent.

Yeah, bowled pretty well IMO. His slow ball, well the type he was bowling tonight, is a bit like the problem Brett Lee used to have with his slow ball - its too big a variation in speed, and gives the batsman time to react. Noticed that Channel 9 described him as "medium fast" - seriously wtf, the guy bowls consistently 140kph+.

Does need a hair cut though.

Problem I see with Sreesanth is that he does have real talent but will only make full use of it only if he engages his brain before opening his mouth.

I get the feeling he will end his career with the tag "Could have achieved a lot more" which is a pity but there is ability there.

The action is pretty easy to pick too. Clarke just waited on it both times.

And unlike when he was facing Harmison, he waited and played down the right, rather than wrong, line!

No doubt he has stupendous talent and tiger's wit but he is just a cub for now !
Hmmm I guess that he should spend some time with Shoaib Akhtar and should get some career tips and one more thing that he gotta get some mass on cuz stuff that he says doesn't suit him at all and it's just like when I'll start talking politely to others !
