gakgupta Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I haven't heard about him for some time now....is he injured ? Or totally out of contention ? Sent from my XT1068 using Tapatalk Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 He is in the squad for Srilanka series. Link to comment
Nikhil_cric Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 His height and the bounce that he generates means that we can't really completely write him off even now. When other bowlers get carted, he can be somewhat more successful on flatter decks . Vilander and LORD_analyst 2 Link to comment
sarcastic Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Ishant Sharma had a successful campaign so far in the Ranji with him being a captain. It is interesting how the OP can make such blanket remark as Ishant is out!!! Ishant will roar back into the test squad. To that extent (i.e. test cricket), he is good enough for team India. Agreed he should be no where near the LoI teams. LORD_analyst, maniac and Vilander 1 2 Link to comment

Shaz1 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Ishant Sharma is a great bowler. One of the best India has. Tonking him for six is not easy. His hair gets in the way of the batsmen's eyes as it stands out like a lion. He can make any batsmen shake with his thunderbolts. Defintly deserves to be in the team of India. You guys need a bowler as pacy as him. Link to comment
rahulrulezz Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Oh my god. Please keep that guy far away from Indian team. FAR AWAY!! Link to comment

MechEng Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Ishant Sharma like Irfan Pathan is another case who did no understand his limitations. After a great Australian tour, he was expected to blow away batting line ups like Andy Roberts instead of allowing him to gradually evolve at his own pace, as a result he ended up complicating his bowling. This is a classic case of how social pressure can mess things, after 2009 T20 World Cup when Ishant lost his pace, media went full throttle on his decline in pace, this brought anxiety in him and you could see it in his bowling action he did not look relaxed at all, his head position was not still at the time of releasing the ball unlike it was perfect in Australia 2008 tour. He has gained back good pace now but has lost the ability to get the ball to cut back into right handers. I can say the same for Irfan Pathan, he was bowling in 115-120 kph range in 2006, but he could bowl huge inswingers to right hand batsmen even in Asian conditions. He made changes in his natural action for adding an outswinger to right hand batsman in his artillery and trying to bowl quick, as a result he did gain pace (135+ kph) but totally lost the ability to swing the ball. mancalledsting and speedheat 2 Link to comment

He basically destroyed his bowling which is good for us because he is never a good Loi bowler anyway. Ishant only makes sense on a green pitch which is way too one dimensional. We should discard this guy even there were no takers for him at IPL. Link to comment
express bowling Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 It is true ... Ishant is so tall that his head is frequently out of the group pictures. As far as cricket is concerned, he is still in our test team. Mosher and Laaloo 2 Link to comment

ind_hyd1 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Ishant is more suited to test matches especially outside subcontinent. Let's not write him off, before making any judgement let's see how he performs in the upcoming tours. To be fair all our seamers need to prove themselves outside subcontinent. India hasn't won a series in SA,AUS,ENG or NZ for a long time Link to comment
Lala2790 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Would be lucky to make the Quetta 3rd XI. The worst 200 wicket bowler of all time, he should never have played more than 10 matches Link to comment
