  • Ishant sharma
    Sekar, former MRF Pace Foundation head, said Sharma was a unique talent which needed to be handled cautiously.

    "To some extent, the T20 cricket has helped bowlers. It is lot of pressure bowling in this format. It has helped Zaheer and Ishant, which was evident in the India's performance against England in the one-day series," Srinath said.

    Recently England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff had also said that reason for India's domination in the one-day series against them was their exposure to IPL, which helped Indian bowlers develop certain deliveries.

    However, Sekar was not willing to buy Flintoff's theory and said the motive of saying that was different.

    "I do not agree with him (Flintoff). He wants to play in IPL and that's why he suggested that in a way to his Board. They have played more Twenty20 cricket than India," Sekar said.

    Srinath also praised Ishant's talent and said his best was yet to come.

    "You will see a mature and better Ishant once he gets to know his body well. It is very important for a fast bowler to listen to his body. Once he learns that he will be a better performer," he opined.
