rtmohanlal Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Yes a lot has been said about Dhawan,Rahul,Kartik,Pandya and their below par performances.All the while this guy has been under performing silently. And he is about to complete a round in SENA . No..... he has played 2 series each in ENG & SAF. So all in all 6 series in SENA. The only series in which he did brilliantly going by at least stats was the recently concluded SAF tour. But if we take into account the bowling friendly nature of the series, even that cannot be termed as a great performances.Means 0 out of 6 performances in SENA where it matters the most.And he has <35 bowling avg: only in SAF of SENA. And at home and against lower ranked teams he has great avg:s .So essentially a mediocre bowler who feasted on conditions.Isn't it time to move on from him or at least use him as 2nd level or 3rd level options?????

Laaloo Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Yes he has dissappointed time and time again. When we just need him to show up and clean the tail, he comes in and gives easy runs. Next man please. He's a better ODI bowler than a test bowler. Frustrated, UrmiSinhaRay, speedheat and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

Tibarn Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 He's not an every match player I think. He needs to be rotated in order to stay fresh and reach his best performance in Tests UrmiSinhaRay, sandsaims and Sgattick10 3 Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Dnt sideline him , u cnt throw everyone Some player needs to be srsly talked to - shami, ashwin , rahane express bowling and UrmiSinhaRay 2 Link to comment
zen Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 (edited) Shami is probably Ind’s best “most conditions” bowler in tests. But he lacks stamina. Therefore would be more effective when bowling in short spells. In fact, most bowlers were probably bowling within themselves considering Ind only played 4 bowlers. If someone like Pandya were there, the bowlers could have managed their workload better Also Shami bowls better in the 2nd inning, which is still to be played Edited September 8, 2018 by zen UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
The Realist Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 At his age I am surprised he can run in at any pace. nevada 1 Link to comment

Khota Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 need to give opportunity to Siraj but Shami still has a role to play. Link to comment
Adi BB Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Shami is just crap in England because he just can't utilise the new ball properly . In Australia also I don't think he'll do well .these two countries will be his Achilles heels Link to comment

rtmohanlal Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 As of now he has disappointed in every country of SENA except SAF .Even SAF record is hugely inflated by just concluded bowler friendly conditions. Link to comment
Nikola Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 He has been unlucky in last innings and bit poor in this series. If he has to save his spot he needs to get fifer and get england out under 100 in next innings. Link to comment

Which indian bowler has done great in austrilia? i feel shami he has been poor in England. in New Zealand didn't play much but will do well there. In Austrilia he has been avg which all indian bowlers were. He still has 4 - 5 years to play for india and has good seam position and pace. We need good bowling coach who can help him out and sends to county i feel he will get better like ishant has gotten. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

At this point, it looks unlikely that he would last for 4-5 years, when he is also less likely to bowl with sustained pace .... we may have to look for viable options sooner than we expect. This 2018-2019 could probably be his last SENA season Edited September 8, 2018 by zen Link to comment

Maybe shami will likely be first one who will fade out but all are of similar age. Link to comment
Sgattick10 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 With all the talent and skill that he possess should have been a gun bowler. I guess just not hard working, aggressive, ruthless enough to be highly successful at this level. Also fitness is an issue. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
