No all 4 are good....even Starc,Rabada and English and Nzl bowlers gets smacked around some times on flat pitches...Hazelwood seems to be the only guy who seems to get it right.

 

our top 4 pace bowlers are very good...Pandya is a little raw and our 2 spinners well their ranking speaks for themselves

To be honest, I don't know who rated them as world class except ganguly. They are average. Pakistan match should not be a measure of how good the Indian bowling attack is lol.

 Nope we are good

Game n pitches have gone to much in favour of batsman. Most bowling line ups have been taken for cleaners so one bad game doesnt make us bad and these scores will soon become normal in cricket

U wnt understand as pak still plays cricket in 90s so they still think 300 is winning total which it isnt anymore

But but but I thought the experts here rated our bowling attack to be the best in the tournament and perfect for English conditions. Reminds me of how people thought the same about our attack going in for the 1999 world cup - Srinath, Prasad, Agarkar, Mohanty and Robin Singh :hehe::rotfl:

You guys are being unnecessarily harsh on the bowlers...

 

It was a very good toss to win and the wicket eased up later on...

 

Just one of those Indian pitches where you win the toss and win the match..,

Completely agree. It was as docile as it can get. During chase, they rated the track 1-10 whit 1 being easiest and 10 being difficult. the rating was between 2-3. When we started batting, wicket was fresh with moisture  more than expected and too much wind. All commies agreed that only ball to bowl in second inning will be cross seam and hope that some skid or bounce.

That's where Indian bowlers made mistake... not much variations in speed and also didn't bowled cross seam (As highlighted by Manjrekar).

Indian bowlers need to use cross Seam here. I remember aa England bowlers used this to get vital wickets against NZ in the last match...

 

Who is the bowling coach of Indian team?

Manju is copycat. Pollack said it in morning just after toss. However,  Not allways visible, I am sure Indian bowlers must have tried a few and may have been tonked over fence. As pressure was on they may have given up on the cross seam

Umesh does bowl the Cross seam delivery, he did in the Ind-Eng home ODI series. Bhuvi has also mixed his knuckle balls in between in this match. One knuckle ball fetched the only non-runout wicket for us. I suppose the bowlers have tried the variations.
