he has variety which bhuvi has , he has the capability to go upto 145k and has variations but he is not Super fast.

if he can bat as well as BHuvi and improve his variations , he may get to play in indian ODI and T20 teams.

He faired better than unadkat in both the odi's in which both of them played together which indicates , he is improving fast.

I'll be honest ,he's bang average .doesn't seem to have the stamina to sustain continuous pace ,doesn't have a stock delivery except the outswinger which he hasn't used yet

He is all right. Not extremely special but someone who can become better if givem chance. He can be part of the pool of bowlers we are looking to create.  I would play some other youngster ahea dof him next but we can’t just discard Shardul. He is not extremely bad. Keep him around

though.

Seems a microscopic upgrade to Mohit Sharma.

stole my words,

India really need a 6’ 4” plus tall 145kph + bowler 

a left arm would be bonus

Also feels shardul’s fielding is a liability

Another Dhawal Kulkarni.  i.e. not really top 15 material.   Let him get a few meaningless ODIs and T20s against the likes of SL, BD etc.  Shouldn't be anywhere near the squad for games that "matter".  But BCCI selectors can arguably make a case that he's been rewarded for a few years of consistent domestic performance. 

 

In the IPL age, it is absolutely critical that FC performances are seen as the designated pathway to national team selection - else the entire FC structure will fall apart.

He is average.

[Rightarmfast]

He is 20 yrs late for team india. Around 97-98, he would have been a good find. Still not half as good as Agarkar.

 

Indian team is past Shardul kind of bowlers!

The selectors and the management clearly aren't. They seem to have a perverse love for mediocrities/TTFs/has beens/never have beens/journeymen.

[Texy]

So so average

[velu]

he will come good .. trust my cricket acumen

 

my observations from the last IPL ..

 

* he can easily bowl 140-145kmph

* got good slower bouncer 

* got good slow balls

* got yorkers

* thinking bowler

 

definitely an upgrade over unadket , dhwal kulkarni  kind of bowlers

Average but his numbers suggest he needs to be given the opportunity to either find a higher celling or fail.

[vvvslaxman]

Ungainly action. Most of his deliveries are short of a length.  I always get the feeling he is going to get a pasting. Somehow he had okayish numbers.  Not sure how long he will last.

[flamy]

He can go back to IPL. I like Sandeep Sharma better.

[SUMO]

He may be lacking talent but he has brains (a rare commodity for indian bowlers over the year)
