Zaheer found out the hard way- glaring!
by Srinivasan Krishna on Oct 19, 2007 07:39 PM

I just remember the first over bowled by Zaheer in the 2003 SA world cup Finals! He beat Gilchrist n a fewoccassons with good deliverie, bounced afew and thought he could get under their skin by glaring and talking.

Waht happened is history.

they justpummelled Zak and team to powder, with scores of over 350 runs!

The only way to have won that match, would have been to bat first, which ganguly stupidly in a day night match gave away after winning the toss. The next would have been to hold line and length, in bowling which we lost it by the onslought by irritated opponents.

Along with Australia, SA, England, NZ ( all white skins) rejoiced!

So, what are we famous for- i mean Indians?
Our tenacity and persistence folks!
We have to wear the Ausies down, down under.
Glare away, bit of banter should suffice.
Sreesanth type ( which reminded me of Zak in WC finals) agro is stupidity.

However, very unfortunately Sree santh has ccrated for himself a persona, which i doubt if he can live with for the rest of his career....
