Former India bowler S Sreesanth has revealed that he played a tennis ball tournament under the name of his dead brother, Jaykrishnan, to prepare for the 2007 T20 World Cup. He said he did so because there were no turf pitches in Kerala to help him prepare for the first-ever T20 World Cup, held in South Africa. Post the tennis ball tournament, S Sreesanth even remembers rolling out matting pitches.
