Cricketics Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 A very candid interview. Have a listen. The guy put things into perspective and answers well. Loved his answer on what the young pacers should learn to do if they need to be successful and what it takes to win a game in Australia. He talks about the pace which is needed and how pressure needs to be applied from both the ends, which England did not do. It is one of the best interviews recently and a very honest interview MK55, Mosher, The Dark Horse and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment

It is one of the best interviews recently and a very honest interview Look at Boycott asking the tough question. BCCI doesn't allow voices to be raised, all our experts and commentators are mental slaves. Ideally we should have guys like Bedi and Jimy Amarnath involved in Indian cricket media, but BCCI has clamped down hard on both these guys because they have an iota of conscience unlike others currently involved.

He is a top bowker on English wickets thats for sure. I enjoy watching him bowl. He has improved over the years his performance in Australia also. He was brilliant on this tour. He made some excellent points. Especially that to do well you have to keep applying pressure from both ends otherwise guys like Smith will keep ensuring that Australia is ahead in the game. Guy is a master of swing bowling and that alone is a brilliant aspect of the game and something which is brilliant to watch. I will pay to watch him bowl. He is once in a generation bowler like many other greats. Gollum and MechEng 2 Link to comment

That's hard to judge. Barbie has been a better bowler as a tourist to other countries when sometimes Anderson has failed. As in India, he was more threatening most times with his in cutters and stuff even when there was no swing or much in the pitch as compared to Anderson. So these things happen. I agree with the point of Anderson though that if you release pressure from the other end even if you have one guy bowling extremely well form one end, the whole work might be futile at times. We have done this same thing on the last two tours where Michael Clarke and Steve Smith have given us hard time. We have failed to put pressure from both ends consistently.

speedheat Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Man my respect for him as a person has skyrocketed today thanks to cricketics for the video, genuinely honest answers "You need x factor to win in Australia, you either need 95mph pacer or a mystery spinner" spot on.

Turning_track Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Bowled his heart out in this series. Lone warrior from his bowling dept according to me. Frank assessment and honest answers from him, must've had felt odd facing such questions while the skipper was sleeping inside due to gastroenteritis. speedheat, Gollum and MechEng 3 Link to comment

Mcgrath was xceptionally consistent wih his line and length even though not express pace, but had decent pace with exceptionally consistent line to do the damage. Not many emerge like him. Hazlewood is very much like him, though far away from achieving what Mcgrath did but he is on course. Link to comment

McGrath was no muck when it comes to pace, was consistent 137k to 143k pacer which is good enough pace if you has height and extraordinary accuracy like mcgra in Australia, by 95mph Jimmy was talking about variation which was missing in their attack this series.
