he is ugly to start with and his crying face did not do very much for his reputation as the bad boy of cricket.

Re Sreesanth and others all over the globe that behave like him

T V coverage is to blame—they are all artists on stage

Last night, apart from the cricket, I watched davis Cup match Serbia vs Australia–just the see the news to see how World No 3 Djorkovic is behaving—one will say it is patriotic exuberance–others will say moronic–yet the Umpires and Referees have to make sure that any game is played for the enjoyment of everyone involved

All sportsmen and women are arseholes–some are worse than others

Apart from TV exposure, there can be any one of or combination of 101 reasons

McEnroe got away with it–a million dollar man vs a referee getting 100 dollars a match then–now the entire world is paying for it

some of 101 reasonslack of parental guideline in the formative years

tribal mentality

animal / basic instinct

victim mentalikty

perceived persecution

national parochialism masquerading as patriotism

lack of self-discipline and / or respect for rules and authority

misplaced anger

trying to make a quick buck for things others than talent in the chosen spotr and preparing for life after cricket

DRUGS

Alcohol induced or effects of withdrawal

low threshold for tolerance of others

cultural and religious upbringing does play a part

in one country, there is an expectation of blind loyalty

and in the other, people become socioeconomically independent from the age of 14 or 15–employability and money in the pocket

and / or government hand outs that encourage disinhibited behaviour

If you can solve all these issues, then we can all sit and clap–” well done, chap!!”

It has to do with Sreesanth’s relationship with the rules of the game….. not with the rules of civility.

In recent years (thanks in large part to Mike Denness and BCCI), the referees have been quite fair across the board.

But Broad has the authority, and Sreesanth persists in being stupid…. so its a case of a talented bowler shooting himself in the foot yet again, inspite of having been shown plenty of leniency by the ICC Referees and plenty of support and plenty of advice from his own team.

There is an example next door – of Shoaib, i just hope Sreesanth is aware of how a really fine talent can be ruined because he can’t keep his crap together…..
