Hat’s off to Sangakkara

Did you see that? Man, this is what we call “cricket”, and these are the gentlemen. We’ve seen people cry, slap, fight, swear, and these guys should learn from what Kumara Sangakkara did here today at the Wankhade stadium in the semifinals between Punjab Kings X1 and The Chennai Super Kings.

Here’s what happened (For those who missed). On Goni’s ball, Sangakkara had a little edge on the bat and keeper Parthiv Patel caught it. There was a shout by Goni but the umpire not sure, did not make a move. And to everyone’s surprise, Sangakkara just walked off, as he was sure about the knick. A replay on the TV confirmed that Sangakkara was right in his decision.

To this gesture, Sangakkara has been appreciated by all cricketers. This is something to learn for the “boys”.
