Cricketer Sreesanth cricketing career went downhill after the IPL spot- fixing scandal in 2013, in which he was alleged to be involved and the BCCI handed him a life ban.
The cricketer participated in TV reality shows and fought elections on the BJP ticket. Sreesanth met Indian National Congress MP Shashi Tharoor and opinion began to grow about the cricketer joining the Congress Party.
Shashi Tharoor shared two photos himself with Sreesanth on Twitter:
“Sreesanth, one of the best bowlers India has produced, and proud icon of Kerala, visited me last night. Happy to know his ban has been revoked. Wishing him all success for the wickets ahead!”
Here are the pics:

The cricketer took twitter to clarify the doubt that he met Shashi Tharoor to thank him for his support in the struggle that Sreesanth was fighting.
Sreesanth tweeted, “Great morning to one and all, please guys I’ve not joined congress..,I went to thanks @ShashiTharoor sir for always supporting me during my struggle. I am @BJP4India karyakartha and am proud of it. For now I am going to completely concentrate on sports(few years left)?????????”
