Strictly come Sreesanth
It is not surprising to see fast bowler Sri Sreesanth break into a jig of delight
each time he takes a wicket.
As a former national break dance champion, he is the Darren Gough of the Indian team.
The 22-year-old was first called into the Indian squad for the one-day series against Sri Lanka last October.
He kept his place for the recent tour to Pakistan and although six wickets in five games at a cost of 48 each was nothing special, the selectors saw enough to promote him to the Test side to face England in Nagpur.
Sreesanth has the nickname 'Prince of Hat-tricks' because of his exploits at club and first-class level.
A hat-trick against England might be too much to hope for in his first Test series.
But he certainly made their batsmen note his name in Nagpur where he bowled at a lively pace and troubled them with his ability to swing the ball and obtain movement off the seam.
