Straight Drive Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 More than 80% of the bowling was done by spinners and the pacers got few overs and they could hardly have any kind of impact. So it's unfair to rate them. However Morkel etc were much better than our pacers on similar surface. Their pacers got more wickets than ours i suppose. Spin is our strength. This series just stamps that yet again. Link to comment

express bowling Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) Fourth test vs. SA --Umesh Yadav bowls his second spell at 142 k to 150.5 k.He was crap in his first spell ( 135 k to 144 k ) but far more accurate when he bowled really quick in his 2nd and 3rd spells....picked up Elgar and Duminy...very important wickets.ishant bowling 135 k to 145.5 k today. Quite economical and bowling good areas. Edited December 4, 2015 by express bowling doccricket and Rightarmfast 2 Link to comment
Gunner Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) Umesh bowled a gorgeous 3rd spell with the ball reversing, the highlights being the jaffa to clean bowl Duminy, and a demonic inswinging yorker to Vilas in the 33rd over, who almost fell over trying to dig it out.

Gunner Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) Ishant outfoxes Vilas, reversing the ball in to hit the top of his offstump. He set him up with a few away-seaming deliveries earlier in the over. Edited December 4, 2015 by Gunner Yamaha and express bowling 2 Link to comment

MCcricket Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Why should speeds be different based on the broadcaster ?Speedguns R different n calibrations R not 100%, there is a degree of variations, that why u see the occasional 150 from Trundlers like Vinnie Link to comment

express bowling Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 Morkel bowling really well. We are seeing lots of 130 to 137 k deliveries from him this test series....which is not that common for Morkel. Link to comment

They started bowling around the wicket to create some patches for the spinners when there was no reverse swing on offer.http://www.espncricinfo.com/india-v-south-africa-2015-16/content/story/949159.html express bowling and doccricket 2 Link to comment
Gunner Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Umesh has repeatedly hit De Villiers on his fingers, knocking the bat out of his hands twice. Been unlucky not to get his wicket (and where the phuck was the short leg btw?) He's undoubtedly been the most dangerous bowler to face in this test.

Gunner Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Umesh breaks Abbott's Legstump into half with a hellish reverse swinging scorcher. Anyone having doubts on him being one of the most exciting genuine fast bowlers in world cricket should watch that delivery on loop.
