Andrew Symonds and S Sreesanth, who had a catty fight two months ago, are being lined up to take part in a boxing match at the end of the Australian summer, according to secondsout.com, a boxing website.

While he wouldn’t confirm or deny the proposal to SecondsOut on Tuesday, after the suggested cross football code fight between Willie Mason from the NRL and Barry Hall from the AFL fell through, rumour has it that Angelo Hyder is now trying to make a boxing match at the end of the summer between Andrew Symonds from the Australian cricket team and his fiery Indian fast bowling rival Shanthakumaran Sreesanth. The two had some animated verbal exchanges during the last Australian one day match tour of India in October and more is expected when the four Test match series between the teams begins in Melbourne on Boxing Day.

Symonds would flatten him like a pancake, wouldn’t he?

Symonds would still win that, but it would be closer.

We’re playing cricket.There are enough boxers in india, we don’t need sreesanth to take up for them.
BTW symonds has the IQ of a whale.I doubt if he can spell his name correctly.
