speedheat Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 12 minutes ago, express bowling said: We need to develop a couple of new LOI pacers who are dependable That will help us rest Bumrah in lower competition LOI series and dead rubber LOIs. This will enable Bumrah to play tests outside Asia without being overworked. : ) Yes I fully agree express bhai if we develop someone like thambi and rajput who can hurl a few in blockhole and equally skilled as bumrah with new ball then we can manage his workload and can try him in testmatches. express bowling 1 Link to comment

express bowling Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Well done selectors, captain and coaches, selecting Bumrah for tests. Should have been tried in the 3rd test vs SL. Edited December 4, 2017 by express bowling The Dark Horse and Laaloo 2 Link to comment

fineleg Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 How do you feel he bowled in first inn? Not bad, but didn't shine a lot either. Performance was in the middle? Link to comment

Performance was in the middle? it wasn't bad per se, but I definitely felt it was below-average. it wasn't fully his fault though, since he should have played the SL series and acclimatised to test cricket.

FischerTal Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 one trick pony in tests right now. just brings the ball back in. needs an out swinger, which is not possible with his action. Peshust 1 Link to comment

Pollack Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Bumrah has no tools to succeed in tests. His Yorkers won't be as effective in tests since batsman would just block them. Apart from that all he does or can do is his usual angling in to the batsman. He is an ODI bowler. Plus there is a fear of we ruining it even that by mission bumrah in tests. Sooner this experiment is over the better it is. Peshust 1 Link to comment
Lannister Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Felt he was kind of rushing it through overs. That's not how you bowl in Test, you need to take time and slowly work towards your rhythm. We could've easily restricted them below 200. Link to comment
NameGoesHere Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 IMVHO, The below by Moonda in cricinfo is bang on: Quote A bigger culprit was Jasprit Bumrah, a shocking selection in the squad - forget the XI - given he has not played first-class cricket in a year. Bumrah is an intelligent young bowler. He has a hyper-flexible arm, which makes his variations difficult to pick. He is the best quick going around in limited-overs cricket. His coaches, his mentors, his team-mates all talk about how quick a learner he is. He is, however, not that quick a learner that he will rock up in South Africa, having not bowled more than 10 overs a day in more than a year, not having had to work out a batsman not under pressure of scoring a run a ball, and five net sessions later become the messiah to save India.

The Dark Horse Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I was concerned about his short run-up, may be he's thinking too much. I still believe he has all the attributes to be successful in tests. Link to comment
renjith Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 majority of his career, srinath could only move the ball in. he still had a decent test career. he could have got a bucket load more wickets if he figured out the proper length for test cricket early in his career. bumrah bowls 135-145, can move the ball in, keep some ball straight and most important he is relentless with his line and lengths. i don't think a bowler needs more than this to be successful in test cricket.

NameGoesHere Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 He should have been given an extended run, but I'm not sure why they didn't get him started in the SL Tests if the intention was for him to play in Tests here. It's this that concern me greatly because it speaks of piss poor planning by the powers that be in Indian cricket. Vijy 1 Link to comment
