“Silence is the speech of the spiritual seeker. I am spiritual now.”
Shantakumara Sreesanth attributes his serene behaviour in the second Test at Trent Bridge to his newly discovered spirituality.
What he really meant:
“Sreesanth, the Peaceable, trumped Sreesanth, the Terrible.”
What he definitely didn’t:
“I’m the new Dalai Lama.”

“Yeah, my mom tells me not to swear on the field. And obviously I get really embarrassed whenever she asks me. It’s not a good word that comes out. I don’t tell her anything; I just ask her to give me food at that point.”
Virat Kohli is abashed when his mother asks him if he has behaved on the field. The young Indian bat prefers to hold his silence and wolf down his mother’s cooking.
What he really meant:
“I’d rather not lie on an empty stomach.And definitely not to my mother.”
What he definitely didn’t:
“Swear words make the world go round.”
