Basically, its very simple. line and length - ok slow down - not ok. Link to comment

With his body and the momentum he generated through his run-up, Srinath should have taken a lot of wickets, but he did not pitch the ball up. Venkatesh Prasad, with limited ability, pitched it up and did well. Easy to say humari fielding mashallah thi he bowled on indian wkts a lot , where spinners use to take the cake. Had he been a eng, SA or Aus player his stats wud have been better. Also who was their to maintain pressure from other end. Bowlers hunt in pair Wasim waqar had a good mentor in Imran , Kapil wasnt of gr8 help to srinath Vilander 1 Link to comment

When you are not able to do the first part properly and are able to do first part only when you do second part then it is okay for to give that advice.Scatter guns don't get wickets nor do they last long in team.

Kapil did a mistake here. Ankit_sharma03 1 Link to comment

Venky was doing fine as his partner. Srinath like Ishant never had ability to pitch further up especially for first part of his career. It is easy to blame others too.

Yes one thing he lacked for a bit of aggresive attitude n showoff which is needed for fast bowler but other then that he was a terrific n very underrated bowler About kapil as a senior its ur job to help youngsters why do u think pakistani players go gaga over imran . Why most indian batsman sing praises to tendulkar for helping them . Srinath himself as senior helped young Zak n nehra. As a senior its ur job to help junior and thats how a culture develops.

Wasim could bowl with crooked-thumb grip because he was stronger and had natural pace and could still have accuracy. Irfan could not do that. He lost pace with that grip and by then he realized it, it was too late for him. dnt think so Wasim advised him that, wasim in most interviews has said he had that grip but he doesnt tell someone to copy it unless they are comfortable with it . Irfan problem was injuries and fiddling to much with action, also taking advice from to many ppl is not helpful at times. and look at his action in later year ....he was not putting it all in his run up or pivot which showed he didnt have enough fitness MAny other indian bowlers , infact bowlers around the world took help from akram no one changed their grip Link to comment
Rightarmfast Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 5 hours ago, rtmohanlal said: who better than Kapil to give advice w.r.t how to bowl in AUS?????? Kapil was a monster in AUS. So having known the amount of natural bounce in AUS pitches , it is only sensible that Kapil advised that way. Somebody's meat can be others poison. Both Srinath and Kapil were entirely different kind of bowlers. If Kapil was such a great coach, why was that particular tour to Australia such a disaster? The truth is, Kapil has always been a bitter and a jealous man. I wouldnt be surprised if he advised him to slow down just because he couldnt see a bowler faster than him. In any event, the performance of the team was pathetic. And that goes to show that Kapil did not know how to read the situation, understand people and strategize. He was a complete failure as a coach. Switchblade and Ankit_sharma03 1 1 Link to comment

Was Kapil supposed to teach Dravid,Ganguly,Laxman,Siddhu,MSK Prasad,Kanitkar,Devang Gandhi etc etc about technical aspects of batting??And as if the likes of Agarkar, V.Prasad etc etc turned out to be ATG bowlers under the coaching of other coaches.... Keep in mind mediocrity would blossom only to that much, however great a coach coaches them. And your accusations about personnel characteristics of Kapil..... nothing to say. Link to comment
