5 cricketers and their tennis equivalents

#3 Nick Kyrgios – S Sreesanth

Nick Kyrgios and S Sreesanth are not short of talent. Both of them are extremely skilful but have been involved in a lot of controversies due to their behaviour on and off the field. They would have been right at the top if not for their poor behaviour. While Kyrgios still has enough time to improve his attitude and reach the top, that time is long gone for Sreesanth.

“Next-Gen” superstar Nick Kyrgios has an abundance of talent in his locker as we have seen time and again on the court. He has defeated the likes of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal in big tournaments and is currently in the top 20 of the world at the age of 21. Unfortunately, he has gotten into a lot of trouble due to his poor attitude on the court. Most recently, he was handed an 8-week ban by the ATP for tanking a match in the Shanghai Masters.

Similarly, Sreesanth was one of the best pace bowlers to have come out of the Indian ranks, and his performance overseas was impeccable. Unfortunately, he was involved in a lot of controversies throughout his career. He was allegedly involved in a match-fixing scam during the Indian Premier League which led to him being banned from cricket. He has not made a comeback yet and has since ventured into politics.
