5 reasons why S Sreesanth deserves another chance

#4 Double Standards?

Treated unfairly?

“The board is firm on its zero tolerance policy on corruption and match-fixing”, said an official, explaining the BCCI's stand on a possible comeback for the speedster.

However, in a series of angry tweets yesterday, Sreesanth questioned the irony in the statement. And, he does have a point.

Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, the two franchises suspended on account of corruption and betting charges in connection with the IPL spot-fixing saga, will be making a grand return in the coming edition of the league.

Pakistan’s Mohammad Amir has been welcomed back to the international fold without any qualms and celebrated for his performances. Salman Butt and Mohammad Asif have been allowed to play domestic cricket in Pakistan. While second chances have been doled out to offenders in these instances, Sreesanth, allegations against whom are yet to be proven, has been left to languish in wilderness. Therefore, he cannot be faulted for feeling short-changed in this case.
