Bumrah and Kumar will end up with all time great bowling figures! (For Indian pacers that is...)

 

Shami is good but also injury prone.

Bumrah   137 k to 146 k

Shami     135 k to 146 k

Ishant     133 k to 140 k

Bhuvi      128 k to 139 k

So Bhuvi and Ishant bowled a tad slow today. But thats ok!

Shami is prone to mood swings too. When he is in mood, he is one of the best in the world.

Looks more like fitness management to me.

 

Did not look moody in tests in Asia.

They showed Shastri giving him a pep talk about hitting the pitch hard.

As much as I loved our bowling this series, I also felt that there is marked scope for improvement. Shami and Ishant definitely. Umesh needs to now get his act together.

They are adequate. Now down to batting to figure its **** out. They just need to get their act together for a period of 7 months. Then its 2 more years of home cooking / weak opposition where Ashwin/Jaddu will carry them as usual.

@express bowling stretching abilities tbh.

Bumrah : pace, bounce

Ishant : Bounce (not great in it either)

Bhuvi : Swing

Shami : Swing and seam

 

Not really.

 

Bhuvi is a very accurate bowler and is quite astute ( has the ability to read match situations and batsmen's weaknesses  )

Bumrah gets a lot of seam movement and can generally land the ball where he wants.

People who watch bowling don't really doubt Shami's pace and bounce.

I called Ishant a workhorse, which he is.

@express bowling  can you please delete Ishanth in your OP ? :sad: 

 

velu anna ......I am not a fan of Ishant and want Saini to replace him   .....  but, to be fair to him,  he has been able to keep the runs down in this test, which is crucial in a low scoring match.  This allowed the enforcer bowlers like Bumrah and Shami to attack more freely.

 

I will spare him for this test     : )

 

But, he won't work in a 3-pacer attack.

That is why you need to give people time. This is sports, not 100 mtrs dash. When someone does bad, you need to give them confidence, not start shouting and asking them to be kicked out.

   Right .  If you are able to assess talent , you will always support them through thick and thin. 

   What if kohli was kicked out within 1 year of his test debut after pretty ordinary results ? 

   Think  what is needed his some sane and practical thinker in team management who is not  just a yes Man. 

   Some one like Gary
