Sunny's No Angel

When Ponting said this in one of this interviews, I'm sure there will be 10 people making hulla bulla abt it.. but I for once agree to Ponting.. His commentry is getting more irritating by the day... 
3rd ODI between India and England. Flintoff moves across the stumps to a Y Pathan offspinner, misses it and gets out LBW. What does sunny say?? "I can't understand y Flintoff played that way. He's very strong straight down the ground. Y would he play such a nothing shot"... Ohh come on.. midon was up in the circle and midwicket was open. and it was a safe single. You can't hit every ball down the wicket. 
One more during the 2nd ODI. Freddie hits Yuvi for a six and next ball gets LBW trying to sweep him for a single.. Sunny bhai says,"He's just hit a six and now why does he want to play such a shot for just one run." I'm sure he'd have said,"That's very good batting from Flintoff. He hits a siz and then takes a single of the next ball and rotates the strike. ", if Freddie had connected the sweep for a single.. 
:D one more just as i write this. Ishant bowls a slower delivery well wide of the off stump and Owais shah was stupid enuf not to smack it over point. It was a power play for god's sake... "That's a very good slower delivery and bowling coach Prasad would be proud of it. "A wide slow ball is the last thing a bowling coach will be proud off.. 
Only wine tastes better as it gets older...
