King Tendulkar Posted April 23, 2017 Author Posted April 23, 2017 This is like going back 20 years . Now totally out of fashion . But back in day some randomn bower would always be promoted to have a go and a swing . narine brought it back in vogue . May suddenly see more of this tactic come back . Worth a gamble , if bowler gets out who cares but if comes off ...

Zelig Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Narine rarely plays horizontal shots. And he has a wonderful bat swing. sandeep and Lord 2
BeautifulGame Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Narine is playing good shots though You are talking about Srinath and all,who missed more than he hit lol I remember against Windies at home ,Ganguly sent Sir Aggy at 3 .It worked next game sent both Aggy and Bhajji up the order and failed spectacularly . Maybe we should bat bottom up in T20s.I bet Bhuvi and Shami will score more than Rohit anyway sandeep, New guy, TheWall and 1 other 4
King Tendulkar Posted April 23, 2017 Author Posted April 23, 2017 Today he scored a single . That was his first single for 60 runs . The previous 60 runs were all 4s and 6s nevada, Unstable Joe, PBN and 3 others 6
nevada Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 (edited) Glad someone opened a thread for this because Narine's success deserves a thread of its own. The other day I was watching highlights and saw Narine smashing the ball left and right. At first I thought it was some other Narine because he looked quite convincing pulling off shots nonchalantly like a regular batsman. I then went to cricinfo to check the score card and was very surprised to learn it was Sunil Narine himself. Jaddu should do this for India and do that sword celebration after boundaries to piss off bowlers even more Edited April 24, 2017 by nevada

f.b.m Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 In theory, if your batting order is in descending order of strike rate, you should be getting your highest totals, especially when you're batting first (Obv. they need to be able to score well in the powerplay). So opening with someone like Narine or Southee (avg of 10, SR: 150) might be a good idea in general.

No cos Pant proper bat. If gets out we all gutted. Point of pinch hitter is its basically a bowler and if he gets out no one cares Mishra is the man for this ! lol speedheat 1

I would go with someone who has a much better chance to succeed, especially at intl level where quality of bowlers would be better than what we see in IPL.
G_B_ Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 India tried this with Irfan pathan. But really did not work out.
