King Tendulkar Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He fooled us once agin with cheap wickets v Sri lanka this spell for me proves it fully . Yes accurate . Yes ok pace . But that’s it no seam or swing . While bumrah was making it jag. Ishant has zero movement . No skill with ball . He just bowls gun barrel straight . Not even get bounce when struggling for seamers has to make do . But now so many options and express pacers like nagakoti coming and malvi , Ishant should be told thanks but that’s it kohli dump him forever please SG1994, The Dark Horse, Laaloo and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment
swapnil123 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 hes a bowling machine. Im not even sure he has pace, he regularly looks like hes bowling at 130-135kph, for someone so tall has 0 bouncer or a short pitched weapon. but i wont be surprised to see him dropped next match then play all 5 in England...... based on 1 spell at Lords lol Link to comment
Cricketics Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Itne saal hongaye bolte bolte but for some reason some reason our Indian ICF janta keep wanting him in indian test team saying he is a magican support bowler. Screw this support bowler. Don’t need such “mahnga” support. He will take few wickets probably again today and fool us. Bring BHUVI back beetle, saik, Adi_91 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 He doesn’t even get bounce despite his height low skill levels . Yes gives all and kind of accurate but this proves you need so much more . You need skill levels , he has low skill levels as a bowler. No natural movement he gets with shami , bumrah , bk , and so many come by through . His time is up . It’s not a case of well there is no one else etc he must never ever play for india again Link to comment

That series also deluded us over Rohit and Dhawan as well . but now playing proper test cricket again . We can now see players like Ishant have no role , we have better and need better Cricketics 1 Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He bowls like 100 ordinary balls in between one or two good ball that could batsman out. His life started as a support bowler. He continues to be a support bowler. He will retire as a support bowler. Never made any progress like Zaheer or Srinath. I am not sure how many bowlers in international cricket made Test debut before Ishant. Most of them made debut after him. They are all well ahead of him. Any idea what is the highest ICC ranking Ishant achieved and stayed how long there ? Link to comment
Mosher Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Ball was zipping around when Bumrah was bowling. He had the SA batsman jumping around. Ishant was harmless in comparison. No movement/awkward bounce nothing. What's the use of all that height when you are not getting awkward bounce? speedheat, Gollum, express bowling and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment
speedheat Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 If any bowler who needs to be kicked out from this Indian team is not shami not umesh not bhuvi its the great ishant sharma !! Should have never been selected after Faulkner's massacre any way, also before those two youngsters we have saini lalit yadav and km asif who I think is more of test match bowler to select.

New guy Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 And where is our leader of attack Shami? Why hasn't he bowled yet. SA being left off the hook big time Link to comment
The Realist Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He will always be around as long as Kohli is around. May get "dropped" here or there but will continue to rack up more games than wickets for the considerable future. asterix, beetle and SK_IH 1 1 1 Link to comment

adi B Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He is never good on this type of pitch,it was rather cape town where he would have delivered Gollum 1 Link to comment
adi B Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Tbh ishant should be the last option for selection ,bhuvi,shami,umesh any day over him Mosher, beetle and speedheat 3 Link to comment

Like he took 2 wickets in CT final in one over he needs lot of luck. That has carried him thus far. After his fiery spell to Punter he joined one dayers. That is when his decline began. He might luck few more wickets in this match. You cannot trust him. Atleast stick with bowlers who has skill. Link to comment
asterix Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Looking at the chatting with Kohli when they’re batting, Kohli’s actually very close to Ishu. Very fond of him. Not sure if he’ll drop him or not... Turning_track 1 Link to comment

Atleast stick with bowlers who has skill.No you can't be more wrong.His spell to ponting was nothing .His performance in 2008 home season was best considering his Man of series performances against a quality Aussie side in India.After that he changed his action to get outswing and lost it.

Laaloo Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Ghanta he only fooled drunkards like you. We very well know he's crap. He's been crap for so many years. We told you about pappu as well. Now you will also make a thread on that? beetle and speedheat 1 1 Link to comment

New guy Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I dunno why we don't try new young pacers instead of recycling TTFs Turning_track and express bowling 2 Link to comment
