Now that BCCI secretary, Anurag Thakur has openly announced in the media that BCCI is not reconsidering to lift the ban they had imposed on three cricketers S Sreesanth, Ajit Chandila and Ankit Chavan, it must be big blow to the cricketers, especially Sreesanth as they must have been hoping to revive their cricketing careers after being cleared by the Delhi High Court of all the charges they were accused of.

The BCCI’s stance on this matter seems to be quiet a strict one and until and unless any miracle happens, the cricketing careers of Sreesanth seems to be quiet over. So what will Sreesanth do if he is not playing cricket? 

He is just 32 and will have ample amount of time in his hand to undertake various other work. Lets take a look at 5 such things which Sreesanth can do with his free time if he is not allowed to play cricket anymore:

1) Appear in Bigg Boss

Well the first thing that Sreesanth should do is to make an appearance in the reality show Big Boss because it is the perfect platform for people with no work and unlimited time. The show undoubtedly will make him even more famous then he is today and will also take care of his bank balance ! Plus the Bigg Boss house always welcomes individuals who have a spicy backdrop which will very much entertain the ever curious audience. Who knows, a good Bigg Boss season might propel his career in the glamour world! Given his volatile temperament, can he win it ?

2) Pursue a career in film industry

Sree is already set to make his debut in the Malayalam film industry with the film ‘The Big Picture’ which is supposed to release in 2018. Sree did not restrict him to his home film industry as rumours suggest that Pooja Bhatt might cast the cricketer in her film ‘Cabaret’ opposite to Richa Chaddha !
In the future, he might even venture for a biopic on his life story and producers clearly won’t hesitate to bet their money on him as the Indian audience have always loved such controversial stuff projected on the silver screen. Sreesanth clearly is enjoying the perks of being a ‘famous’ cricketer, even if it is for non-cricketing reasons. Its okay as long as the job is clean and tidy !

3) Dance Dance

Remember Sreesanth’s the epic dancing in South Africa when he struck Andre Nel for a huge six ? We thought that it was just a mere celebration for him but in reality Sree dances quite well. For those who are unaware of Sree’s dancing abilities, kindly watch the video where he shares the floor with King Khan as they both start grooving together. With a little bit of training and practice, Sreesanth has the capability to turn on the heat with his dancing, as he did it often on the cricket pitch ! Even if he doesn’t turn into a professional dancer, he can easily slip into the role of a judge of any dance show !
Show them your moves buddy!

4) Write a Book

This is a must for Sreesanth as he has now become a hot topic in our cricket obsessed nation. He has been through a lot for the past couple of years and must have got loads to speak about. May be is not able to do it openly but he can surely write a book about it if he chooses to. The book will act as a mirror to the unknown stories and shady incidents that Sree witnessed in his life and will definitely be worth reading, given the huge craze for anything related to cricket in our country. The book will also act as a medium which will connect him with the huge mass of the country and might help Sreesanth to clear and revive his image. Go for it Sree !

5) Become the face of anti- corruption campaign

Just like Lou Vincent featured in a video for the ICC’s Anti- Corruption campaign, Sreesanth can also do the same in India. He can very well be the poster boy for anti-corruption in our country. He can earn a livelihood by conducting seminars, become a motivational speaker, appearing in various commercials and advertisement campaigns guiding youngsters how to stay away from such traps and spreading the message of goodwill and how to stay clean. This will not only enhance his dejected image but will also create a soft portion for him in the hearts of millions.
Not a bad option, eh ?
