Sreesanth selects his all-time calmest XI, which includes Harbhajan Singh and a few of former captains

Sreesanth, a former cricketer for India, recently proposed an 11-man side that he humorously referred to as his “all-time calmest XI”.

Given its inherent dynamic variations, playing cricket is sure to evoke a range of emotions. Joy and happiness are natural feelings to experience after winning, but there have been many passionate incidents where things have gone wrong, which has caused a wide spectrum of strong, intense emotions to come out of many cricket players, even if they didn’t mean to be directed personally.

The World Cup-winning pacer designated Sourav Ganguly, the former captain of India, the team’s captain in a recent interview. Ganguly was well-known for being an exuberant person in those days. One of his most well-known instances of going too far is when, after India defeated England in the NatWest series in 2002, he celebrated from the balcony of the Indian dressing room at the famed Lord’s.

The team’s openers were named as Delhi natives Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli, two young men with a long and illustrious history together.

Ricky Ponting, a former captain of Australia, was selected as the one-drop hitter. One of the main players responsible for instituting a wave of severe aggression and domination within the Australian system was Punter.

The fiery XI of Sreesanth

The renowned all-rounders of both Bangladeshi and Pakistani teams, as well as their former captains, were known for their explosive tempers and made up the middle order. The latter, who is still a vital member of Bangladesh’s cricket team, occasionally manages to garner attention for his outbursts of rage.

In addition to himself, Sreesanth’s lineup featured Shoaib Akhtar and Harbhajan Singh. During their peak, the two of them had a fierce rivalry and would frequently make subtle jabs at one another whenever the arch-rivals faced off.

The only other West Indian on the list was Kieron Pollard. Even while the monster cricketer was and still is full of fun, anyone who caught strays with him on the pitch faced serious danger. Sreesanth’s XI also included Andre Nel, the former Proteas bowler with whom he had a heated disagreement during the former’s bowling to the latter.
