Speedster S Sreesanth's on-field aggression has come in for praise from Australian
skipper Ricky Ponting, who said his team was looking to "impose"
itself on India in the one-day series with a similar behaviour.
"I know it (Sreesanth's aggression) is going to be there. That's what fast
bowling is all about. I expect all the guys in our side to play with lot of aggression
and (be) very positive with the way they go about things," Ponting said.
"We expected it from him (Sreesanth)," he said, adding,
he had been watching the bowler in the past couple of years.
Ponting said that Sreesanth did a good job for India in the
Twenty20 World Cup and remarked that "body language" displayed by
the bowler at times on the field is something that is needed sometimes in the
game.
"We will come out as aggressively as we possibly can in this series and
impose ourselves on the Indians. If we do that, I am sure we will go a long
way in winning the series," he said.
Ponting also said cricket was generally all about putting pressure
on the opposition.
"That's what we try to do all the time".
