Totally agree....

He can be successful on certain pitches and can even win those matches single handedly.

He has the knack of picking wickets.

He should be hand-picked on certain pitches in certain countries

 

Laughable , a dibbly dobbly bowler bowling at 125 k will run thru a good side, shows ur acumen, arent u the one who think Chawal Khulkarni is world class, tsk tsk

Nope....

Whoever chawal Kulkarni is....

You think you are the brightest brains in the cricket...if so, you should be working with BCCI or ICC..or atleast some state Ranji teams...if not, you no better than anyone here...

STOP judging people

BTW...Aren't you the one..who thinks Iyer is world class batsmen? LOL

Moreover, what was the pace of Irfan when he took a hat-trick (4 wickets) against Pakistan in the first over of the test match....

[King Tendulkar]

Jeez any lad who takes a few wickets in a particular match or scores runs in a particular match is straight hyped as a player for India 

 

does anyone look at how they play ? Technique ? Or anything ?

 

icf just a bunch of 5ft 2 accountants . I look took x number of wickets so should play for India . Don’t need selectors just number crunchers

U r wrong again i havent talked about Iyer at all, Irfan was always close to 128 to 135 k mark, How on Earth do you expect someone bowling at 120 to 125 k be competetive in International cricket, he will be treated like a spinner n hit outta the ground, a bowler needs to atleast be around 135 k mark ,even if he is suoer skillful to be effective n history of cricket has shown us that, ur statement just goes against proverbial common sense, heck even u19 bowlers bowl around 128 to 145 k nowadays, n womens cricket has seen some bowk at about 125 k, so r you living in La la land?

I said on certain pitches in certain countries...should be hand-picked

 

Here is the video of irfan pathan for your reference 

 

first wicket ---speed 72.7 miles per hr -- 116 KMPH

third wicket - Speed - 121.7 kmph

 

Haven't checked the third wicket and fourth. I am sure, it will be around the same speed.

 

Pace with skills is probably best thing to have and everybody understand that. But when we don't have the quality and has to choose between skill and pace, then it's debatable 

 

Let me reiterate: I didn't said he should be included as regular in all formats. Only in test matches and that too on certain pitches (ex: in England).

 

My Observation is not based on just this irani match.

Irfan Pathan was an allrounder, and most of his career he bowled between 130 to 140 k n also touched 145 before he messed up with injuries n grip action change
