That the mind needs to be moulded thr' proper education is prerequisite to instill proper values so that thoughts precede actions and respect has to be given to be recieved but cricket is a game of passion and when mindless money intoxicates such minds and the braun rules the brain uncontrolled. We are the product of the environment where such incidents abound and our leaders set good examples of the kind of behaviour from whom these youngsters draw inspiration.Hope sense and sensibilities prevail atleast before the Media when the whole world is watching it.Hope experience instills wisdom.
I think this is the best thing that has happened to Indian cricket. The way money is thrown in and the way the players are conducting themselves was rediculous. Atleast now the board will wake up to the reality and do something about it. The cricketers are made super heroes for winning one ODI series and behave like they are undisputed champions. Fame and money is getting into their head. they should learn from their seniors and plant their feet on the ground.

Half agree with you.No doubt there is a lot of money flowing in cricket but I think these young cricketers are from comparatively poorer background than their seniors.Still fame and money can be taken care of properly and I wud say Irfan and R.P. Singh are the perfect examples.
bhajji and sree are spoiling the reputation of our nation.They are bringing a negative impression to your country's people. Foreigners would be thinking that how misbehaved are these indians.they don't know to behave off field and on field. First comes behaviour,sportsman spirit after that it is cricket.I think both bhajji and sree should be sent to a counselor. Both these player should get a harsh punishment of suspension of two to three years for international career.
it's ridiculous to see the immatured Sreesanth and angermanagement-friendly loose cannon aka teri maki haribhajan digging their own graves...
these idiots should learn from likes of Steyn the SA bowler, Vettori, malinga et al. to show their talent on the field with the ball BUT we indians are caught up in this fake aggressiveness and young india crap!! With this attitude we are doomed!! it's high time these so-called bhajji and sreesissi learn from their peers to behave on and off the court!! There are so many young kids watching them on the TV whereas these maniacs are making mockery of themselves..what did their mothers teach them??? They should realize that they are DISPENSABLE and no one is bigger than the game itself!! there are so many young and well behaved ones ready to take Indian jerseys to play cricket so why NOT DROP THESE GUYS FOREVER an give some others a chance!!! BCCI, are you listening?

i am a mallu , but i tell u this pompous sreesanth has brought a bad name to malayalees, i hate his overbearing attitude , i was told by my friend that when he went to his kerala home to meet his brother in law madhu balakrishnan , madhu tried introducing sreesanth who was there to my friend but he refused giving his customary handshake , and behaved very haughtily... pride travels before a fall and the circle of good fortune is about to die off in sreesanths case
He has stood out from the crowd in making constructive criticism of a mishappening, providing probing thoughts and also a recommendation. Shows remarakble character of the person.

very much true. Most of our cricket heros are either high school or collage drop out. What kind of maturity you expect from them?

Although I am a Master's graduate, but I don't think college degrees are required for maturity or common sense.
Look at Bill Gates who is a college drop out or even our own Sachin Tendulkar who didn't attend college properly due to career in cricket.
BTW, the same applies to you. Think before you speak!!

u have to take into account tht bill gates dropped out of 'harvard' and not any other university...so the pedigree was always there...

Again, you are probably picking up two out of million successful collage drop outs to generalize your argument.
Its not the degree thats matures you. its the pain to get there and all the smart people you meet along the way makes you realize you are NOT top of everything.
if you ask me again, yes graduation does bring maturity, its different from common sense. Atleast they don't go on slap somebody because they could not stand with that guy.
Please don't bring Bill Gates into this, you got one out of billion chance to be like him

By the way bill gates dropped off after 3 years of college in a 4 year system. In all the messages that he give he says he regrets that.... college education brings in maturity,people skills and a change in perspective of how a person looks at his surroundings...
Sreesanth is an embarrassment to every Indian sports lover. OK, Harbhajan slapped him. Does that mean you sob like a school kid who is denied candy? It was a shameful spectacle to say the least; even more shameful than the original act of Harbhajan slapping him. And those who say Sreesanth is an aggressive guy - the man looks like a joker when he reacts the way he does everytime he picks up a wicket.
I think Srisanth behaved like a sissy in weeping and sobbing in public. Mard ki Bachha do'nt behave like that in public.As a sportsman, he should learn to remain calm and composed and act like an adult. It was sickening to see a him behave like that. Bhajji at least did not do that. He must be repenting what he did , but at least he behaved like a man, although a unruly, uncivilised man that is.
