maniac Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Did anyone see Morkel’s last over...didn’t make the batsman play one ball...every delivery was a short and real wide when the batsman was looking to play for the end of the day. Now we saw a similar over from Ishant last night and infact he was not bowling as wide as Morkel...not even close lol Also he was given a 1 over spell after a long day,never easy for a fast bowler because your muscles are stiff. but he was killed on ICF,insulted and abused. Do we have bias to a certain players when we watch the game? Edited January 14, 2018 by maniac SecondSlip, Khota, Temujin Khaghan and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment
gattaca Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 The thing is Morkel wins matches Ishant doesnt and is more concerned about hair, adding "s" to his name because some jyothshi said so. rahulrulezz and velu 1 1 Link to comment

Rightarmfast Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Morkel is bowling shite most of the time. Its only Indian batsmen who are making them look good. Link to comment
Captain Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 The difference between the two cases is that Morkel does that once in a blue moon. While it's bread and butter for Ishant. Link to comment
sensible-indian Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Seriously maniac? First of all, Morkel gets pounded by Saffer fans for not making batsmen play. Second of all, Morkel when he gets it right is a total match winner. Third of all, Morkel gets it right WAY more often. diehardpacer, randomGuy, rahulrulezz and 1 other 4 Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Morkel averages 28 Ishant averages 36. Onlybias is from team management that enabled him to play 80 tests for India. SecondSlip, express bowling, speedheat and 6 others 1 8 Link to comment

These days, he looks an improved bowler.. Link to comment

No we should be subjective in our criticism and analyze the problem and if it is intentional than sure suit yourself...go with the flow and massacre the player !!! Someone just said Rohit scores 200s in Odis because he gets to play selfish cricket Cmon now what do you say to that. If I know a guy who is this prodigy in chemistry and a genius at it,I would assume he would be real good at math as well....if he fails a basic math exam than I would be surprised and analyze what went wrong than calling the guy a dumbfk...but with the bias towards players the statement like the above one etc come into play.

asterix Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Yes, the senior most bowler Ishu doesn’t gets appreciation which he deserves even after “leading from the front”... Link to comment
Sgattick10 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Why should we care about what Saffers do, this is ICF nor SACF. Link to comment

fineleg Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Comparing match winner Morkel to "unlucky for 70 tests" I.S.? its not about one over here or there. Turning_track 1 Link to comment

These days, he looks an improved bowler.. No bias is there. People praise him when he bowls well. When Kohli fails overseas, you don't attack him like you attack Dhawan or Rohit. Why? Not because of bias but because of their past credentials. It all matters. 10 minutes ago, maniac said: Morkel also plays on pitches like we got in the first test 8/10 times Compare their country to country stats. Link to comment
