rtmohanlal Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) inevitable results of proven mediocres like Ishant being played again and again showing in this series too. Another one is the supposed wall Pujara & mediocre keeper Parthiv Edited January 15, 2018 by rtmohanlal Link to comment
FischerTal Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 after that spell to ponting, he has done nothing in his career to warrant selection. his selection itself is an admission of defeat from the start. Link to comment
New guy Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) 49 minutes ago, Green Monster said: Or, you know, when he ripped out your hearts in the champions trophy. On a serious note, I already know Amir is also a green track bully... I can't deny it, but can you deny that kumar is a green track bully? even your coach and captain only play him on helpful pitches... doesn't that say it all? I'm sure you guys don't call Anderson a green track bully (sarcasm). As I said, any bowler who can roll his arms can defend 350+. But that is somehow an amazing performance that he took 3 wickets after your team has scored 350+. And then he went missing all other matches like the NZ series. That is how far your bowling standards have fallen BK averages 26 in India. Your boy averages over 35 in most countries. Who is the green track bully?

Vk1 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I was thinking that he became better but one thing is clear he can never win a match on his own. When did he last get a 5 wicket haul Link to comment
Silva Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Tbf when other bowlers like shami arnt bowling well the captain simply bowls him less, when ishant doesnt bowl well the captain still looks to get 15+ overs a day out of him. He can be used as a workhorse type bowler which is why is average is higher than it should be, and shami cant be used as a workhorse which is why his average is lower than it should be. Imo bumrah and Bk (batting plus new ball skills) should play every match and yadav, shami, and ishant should compete for the third spot. Link to comment

He is a whole different bowler than 2013 and you know it. He has increased his pace, bowls a heavy bowl, learnt to seam and reverse. Unlike Amir who is stuck n 2010 Even then 37 average is still better than Amir's average in Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and UAE. How can any premium bowler average more than 43 in UAE, Sri Lanka and Australia? Edited January 15, 2018 by New guy speedheat and beetle 1 1 Link to comment

New guy Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) 6 hours ago, Green Monster said: he is pacier than before i guess, but even 1st match vs south africa he only bowled average of 131 kph, hardly quick and that was on a green pitch, otherwise that is total cannon fodder for quality non subcontinent batsmen a bowler cant reverse swing well at such low pace and it hardly reverse swings on the green pitches which kumar exclusively plays on. all this sounds like ur saying he's better than he actually is. if he was so great, why isnt kohli selecting him to play outside of green pitches? yaar you r to much worrying about amir. even Pak fans don't hold him that high anymore... we only see him as a complementary bowler now. Hasan Ali is the hot prospect now... You do know it's common sense that you don't need to bowl fast on green pitches? Steyn regularly bowls 140+ in tests but when it really swings he bowls at 130s. BK was in the 120s during 2013 and hence he would not be able to pick up wickets, now his pace is more than sufficient. Amir is Still the first bowler on the list You have still not brought up BK's stats without Kolkata post 2013. Why isn't Kohli selecting Rahul and Rahane on these pitches? Kohli works in mysterious ways Edited January 16, 2018 by New guy Green Monster 1 Link to comment
