For someone who gets a lot of wickets bowled/LBW I cannot understand why he often bowls so wide of off stump. He is at his best when he is attacking the stumps.

I know. He would have clocked around 140-145k's if he had bowled under speed gun settings used in international matches. Just wanted to see him bowl a few 145k balls on these domestic speed guns which would be closer to 150k on speed guns used in international matches.

Seven stress fractures have slowed down Varun Aaron's career, but he still retains the "madness" to bowl fast and hopes to work his way back into national reckoning or at least the A team. "The madness to bowl fast is still there even after seven stress fractures," Aaron told ESPNcricinfo. "If I wanted to cut down on pace or go by the safer route, I'd have done it by now. Fast bowling in India isn't easy because of the wickets and conditions too, but it's fun at the end of the day when you see the ball thudding into the keeper's gloves." India's fast-bowling resources are well-stacked now, but the desire to get back to doing what he did in Bengaluru in 2015 still exists. "Why would I want to bowl fast if I don't want to return to the Indian team? I haven't got many chances to prove myself at India A as well. So, the opportunity is Vijay Hazare and Ranji now, and I want to make the most of it. I'm sure I will play for the country again." Aaron last played for India in the Bengaluru Test against South Africa in 2015, when he bowled an absolute beauty that straightened late and hit the top of Hashim Amla's off stump. He has now returned to Bengaluru as one of Jharkhand's senior players for the 2018-19 Vijay Hazare knockouts. http://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/24986437/rejuvenated-varun-aaron-india-dream-burning-bright

Anukul putting up another good performance.

Aaron is probably the best in India when it comes to bowling bouncers.

@express bowling Bro check out Aaron's nasty bouncer in the 33rd over. 140k ball smacked the batsman's helmet and went for a 4. He was clueless. Would have tested any good batsman.

Aaron 135-140. He has bowled a lot of 138-139k deliveries. Ball was hitting the bat hard. Average speed has been good. But would like to see him bowl quicker. Want to see a few 145k deliveries on these speed guns. Good to see Shukla bowling quick too. He was bowling around 133 -140 in his 1st spell.

Good comeback by Aaron after a poor start. Has picked up 2 wickets. Average pace has been around 137-138k.

Shukla too is bowling quick 133-140k. But both bowlers have bowled a lot of wides. Poor bowling.

Aaron getting swing both ways but has been very wayward in his first over. 4 wides.

Aaron starts off with a 138k bouncer and follows with a 140k delivery which thuds into the keeper's gloves.

Interesting to see what pace Rahul Shukla is bowling at these days.

Jhakhand winning the toss and bowling first.

Why leave out Ponting? Add him too.

Umesh will always a underchiever but very happy with his performance today. Will always support him and Aaron as they encouraged a few young Indian fast bowlers to bowl quick.

After this performance Umesh is a must for tests at home. Siraj is ready for tests he should be selected for the Aus tour. Khaleel is good for the shorter formats. Nagarkoti is still raw. Him and Mavi are the future of Indian fast bowling.

Good thing that Jharkhand game is at Chinnaswamy. There will be speed guns.

Agree that Pant will strengthen the team's batting. Just want the team management to give the same reason and kick Dhoni out when the opportunity comes up. But they won't as they are a bunch of wussies.

Unfair on Saha. Will the team management do the same if Dhoni is out with a injury and his replacement Pant does really well?

Umesh probably won't get a game in Aus as those pitches won't suit his bowling.

Kapil, Srinath and now Umesh are the only Indian fast bowlers who have picked 10fers at home.

10 wickets for Umesh

Give Umesh a break and bring on spinners from both ends.

Saini has bowled 140+ under speed guns in domestic games before. So he can bowl 145k's in tests.

Gambhir gone for 104(72).
