Reply to the critics and the people of own state for their enemity against the talented young pacer. unlike other states Kerala didn't support the Pacer to return back to the Team India. More over the Home Cricket authority tried to push him out of team India. Even though he played in county cricket and proved his talent. Finally Team India selection committee gave him chance. He used that chance and return Team India with valuable 5 wickets.
He is Devotee of Lord Vishnu(Guruvayurappan) and Shabarimala Ayyappan. He says really God only helped him to came back.Born-again pacer S Sreesanth, claiming to be one of the most misunderstood cricketers in the world, feared he may not play for India again after a series of controversies plagued his career. This is a real tribute to the National War heroes on the day 26/11.
Star performer of day three of the second India-Sri Lanka Test, Sreesanth shared his fears of not playing for India again because of his serial disciplinary indiscretions. "To be honest, I never thought I will play for the country again. But God has been very kind and I got the opportunity at the right time," said Sreesanth, after his career-reviving five-wicket haul in the Sri Lankan first innings that put India on the threshold of a victory.
Sreesanth felt it was a sort of re-birth at the Green Park where he played his last Test against South Africa last year. "I played my last Test here and it's nice to start here again. It's like a cycle, you go back from here and come back here again," he said.
Kerala Speedster S Sreesanth put India in sight of a huge victory against Sri Lanka with a five-wicket haul on Day 3 of the second Test, at Green Park, in Kanpur, on Thursday.
Sreesanth, playing his first Test after a gap of nearly 18 months, claimed five wickets for 75 runs in 22 overs as the visitors conceded a 413 runs first innings deficit, India having amassed a mammoth 642 in their first innings.
Earlier, Sreesanth, who bowled an extended spell of nine overs in the morning session, claimed the wickets of Tharanga Paranavitana, Kumar Sangakkara and Thilan Samaraweera. The Kerala pacer went on to complete his second five-wicket haul in Test cricket by scalping Prasanna Jayawardene and Rangana Herath in the post-lunch session.
