Is Ishant Sharma the best young cricketer in the world?

... Ponting's doing a grand job all on his own... I reckon he hardly needs Ishant to help make a fool of him ... Cheap Aussie thrill on Cullinan hey ? Funny Darryl's a respected gentleman and was something special to watch since his heydays in Queenstown (I remember back him from way back in 1984), and Shane Warne, well to those that know and just scratch their heads... can you take the yobbo out the gutter ? Pick your hero's from the gutter, I'll go for Cullinan anyday, even if he couldn't stand being on the same planet as Warne... understandably many of us feel that was about Aussies... a classic case of Warne destroying the spirit of cricket in the mind of a cricketer

look dont over hype him. he is good, but not the best. give him more time to prove he can do that again and again. btw I support india

India has had many finds who came and disappeared into the horizon. Ashish Nehra could bowl as quick as Ishant and troubled England during WC2003 with 7 wkts. But he disappeared. Munaf Patel was the next big sensation and now he is a shadow of himself. Irfan Pathan came with a lot of promise and then had to sit in the dog house for sometime to recover himself. Vinod Kambli was Tendulkar's partner in domestic cricket and came with a lot of promise. No one knows where he went. Siva Ramakrishnan fell victim to fame and alcoholism. Ishant is very young and made an impression that many Indian bowlers have not made since Kapil Dev. I sincerely hope he does not disappear after an initial burst. But to impress Aussies in Australia with bowling skills takes a lot of skill. And I hope Ishant is protected and nurtured well so that he can provide the needed quality to Indian pace bowling.
