What counts most?

I've been watching the recently concluded Australia's tour of India. I see a surprise performer of the series.

After a weeks, no one is talking about the performance of Symonds & Hayden, neither the stunning comeback by Murali Kartik, nor the swing of Mitchell Johnson but about the aggression of Sreesanth.

May be this fame is attractive but has a shorter life time. The world still remember the titans like Kapils, Dennis, Holdings etc even after decades of their retirement not just for their aggression but for their performance on the field.

Theory is simple, 'You can't achieve success by not excelling in your assignments' and is a lesson not just to Sreesanth, but for all.
