Ishant sharma bowls shyte

Ishant has bowled well. Not everyone can bowl or needs to bowl magic delivery. In Australia, our Achilles heal has always been conceding runs at high ER. This is what they need to do, not give freebies because pitches aren't as bowling friendly. Not conceding runs keeps you in the game. Like first session as we only got two wickets but they could only score 57 that kept us in the game. 90/2 was Australia's session. Ishant isn't a spearhead. He is just good support bowler instead and has done his job. If we had Umesh, we know how quickly he could have changed the session for Australia.

This is the problem. If we don’t try another pacer in place of him. We truly don’t know how our pace attack is. May be siraj. Does Australia play peter sidle who is a work horse bowler ? No only when one of the main bowler is injured. 

Siraj isn't replacement for Ishant. Siraj should replace Shami or Umesh.

 

Australia have Pat Cummins who is completely different bowler. But he wasn't available for long time and Siddle did play for long time.

It’s not just one delivery. Shami bowled multiple deliveries which squared up handscomb. There is something in the pitch but ishant seems to be wasting the ball before it goes soft.

Ishant averages 26 in last 25 matches.

Because he has only played overseas and he doesn’t get picked when India play at home as he is not one of the top 2 fast bowlers which india generally pick in India with 2-3 spinners.

 

That said, Ishant is a workhorse bowler on this tour. I am tired of seeing him but we have to recycle him because we carry sleeping giants cum injury prones like Shami who can break down any time. That is where is the value of Ishant is. Thats all. 

 

Hence he keeps his place

He is called the leader of the attack. But he absolutely bowls shyte. Except for being a sharma and Brahmin quota he has no place in the bowling attack. How many times we have seen this ? Looking at shami and so many good deliveries. Ishang is absolutely pathetic

Wo leader nhi lidadh hota hai

That scoring at brisk rate is taken care of by the absence of Warner and Smith. This is a very weak batting lineup who cannot take the charge to opposition. Also Ishant is regarded as spear head but he is really a supporting bowler at best. Having said that Ishant has bowled way better in England and also here so far.

I really think if Warner and Smith were there they would have taken on Shami and Ishant and maybe even Ashwin especially Smith.

yes, especially Warner, Ishant would have had a bit higher ER more close to 3 than 2 and Shami who is already 3+ could have been 4+.

Out of the seamers you had to pick the one with best average, strike rate and ER?

 

Ishant has been crap for a long part of his career but for last two years, he's playing the role of the support seamer quite well. Is he a match winner? Perhaps not, but he holds one end up, can bowl 24-25 overs a day with lots of control regularly troubling the batsmen and creating opportunities.

I think gattaca is one of those guys Muloghonto came across on his road trips based on this dumb quotes like Bhramin- quota conspiracy in frickin 2018 :laugh:

 

On topic Ishant is least of India’s problems. If you are thinking Ishant is still going to be our Steyn and Anderson , you are living under a rock (like me :) ) However he has done a fantastic job as a support bowler for a while and has been really consistent and tight with good returns.

Did you watch the match at all ? There were many overs where didn’t bowl well in the middle when khawja was on strike. Then after Paine was out he relieved all the pressure by bowling wide and gave multiple  boundaries for Travis head. At least watch the match first.
