An Athlete...

Let me write some thing about a person from sports world. I am a little passionate when it comes to sports....

Brett Lee!! Some one in the world of sports whom I adore.He is what I would like to call an Athlete. The energy and effervesence in him is undoubteldly much much more than what most of the superstars of todays cricket can only dream of...

There is a certain grace about this man with a boyish charm. That we can easily see from his run up to the crease. It's not like the wild force of Shoaib Akhtar, but it is rythmic. May be himself being a musician helps him attain that Rythm in every thing that he does. But once he completes the leap to the crease and releases the red cherry the heart of the batsmen leaps. Listening to the sound of ball speeding past there nose will not be music to the ears of most of world batsmen. And this is one good reason why he has become the strike bowler for Australia in the absence of Mcgrath...

Another fact is the swiftness with which he moves in the field. He is one of the best fielders to have in the out field. The ground he is capable of covering is unbelievable. Add to this the powerful arm and you cannot ask anything more from a fielder to marshal the boundaries...

One thing in which he has improved over last few months has been his batting. His average may still be similar to that of a tail batsman, it is continuosly improving. More than the averages it's his contribution in some recent exciting wins for Australia that shows the level to which he is rising.Add to this his on your face attitude while taking the body blows, here is yet another champion from Australia...
