some balls were definitely quickish, i felt it was more around 140-142 than 145-146

140-142 is good too. No India u19 bowler except Nagarkoti has hit those speeds yet.

We might have seen him bowl upto 142 k in domestic matches with only one speed gun in use.

 

But, if this were an international match, with high speed cameras and 3 speed guns in use, I am sure we would have seen some 144 k / 145 k balls.

 

Guys like Bhuvi and Shardul bowl 132 k to 142 k in international matches and occasionally touch 145 k or more ..... Porel is definitely quicker than these two.

i am not sure if you can directly convert like that , we have seen sangwan at 146 and aniket at 144, are they going to be quicker than shardul .

Those were T20 matches where bowlers sometimes bowl 1 or 2 much quicker overs.... something which they are unable to replicate regularly.

 

I remember that 146 k over from Sangwan .... looked quicker than that.

I might take some heat for this but,India needs a bowler right now who can bowl at 135-140 consistently and has mad skills.If this bowler can hit  145+ leave alone 150k than that is a huge bonus.

 

with South Africa and England tours coming up,we need some one who is adept and swing and seam. 

 

I was very impressed with Bumrah’s ability to jag the ball in the recent Aus and Nzl series...he is just not your typical yorker,slower ball 145k short of a length LOI bowler...has some skills and if handled properly than playing these useless series like Srilanka he can be our MVP.

I agree.

 

Bumrah hits the deck hard with good accuracy and gets bounce and seam movement both ways at good pace.

 

Such a pacer can be a great asset in the SA and England test series.

 

We need him there much more than these low profile bilateral LOI series.

Most important thing is consistency, not skill. Only skill you need is hitting the seam in right areas. Pitches will do the rest. We talk a lot about skill but skill word is overrated. No skill can do anything if pitch is flat. Then you need that x-factor. The most important thing is consistency.

This is what Bumrah does.

 

We need more such bowlers.

 

Avesh and Lalit may have potential to do this too.

[rkt.india]

In England, you need both swing and hit the deck bowlers, mixture of both.

[express bowling]

^

 

Yes, but in most other places, like SA next, we need a couple of accurate and deck-hitting pacers.

This is all my fault lol I said in a thread how sick of reports of these seamer reports . All trundles and waiting for threads on 90 mph bowlers 

 

now we got 5 or 6 90 mph Bowlrs for kohli to choose from . So happy I complained

Some bowlers seem to be capable of doing both.. swinging and hitting the deck depending on the conditions or at times doing it seemingly simultaneously.. like Johnson rabada. Steyn too gives me that impression.

[vishalvirsingh]

shivam looks Average...kinda fast trundler at best.

 

i am sure he wont play for india unless he improves a lot ishan and nagarkoti are better talents.
