Guest HariSampath Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Sree the monkey has probably lost a game for us today....we need to take a brain scan on him ( to see if is there ) Link to comment
HouMac Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 In Sree's defense his bowling wasn't THAT bad. Jayassuriya was just doing his thing. Link to comment

msb1991 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 So? Who were all those people who disputed my view that Sreesanth is not the perfect fast bowler? Link to comment
IndianRenegade Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 He bowled badly today, but that alone doesn't make him a bad bowler. It just happens, hope he learns from this. Link to comment
Dhondy Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 So? Who were all those people who disputed my view that Sreesanth is not the perfect fast bowler? Rubbish! He is a match winner, and will be back. He lost his bearings today, and will learn from it. Watch out for him in the next match. Link to comment
Dinx - the Jinx Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 hey guys... if any of yo living in Sydney, can you help me get tickets for the Ind / Aus match on the 24th. I tried ticketek, but the stands that I'm looking for are not available with them. Is there any other channel available for booking. I wants two tickets in Churchill stand or Noble stand or Bradman stand. Please help. My email id is dinakkar@gmail.com Any useful info that yo've got, please pass it on to this id. Tnx Link to comment
Dhondy Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 That was just out and out slogging by Jayasuriya in Sreeesanth's second over. Sometimes it comes off, at other times you end up looking like a fool. The short boundaries helped. One criticism that can be levelled at Sreesanth is that he doesn't quite know how to deal with it when he is under the pump. He'll have to learn to deal with thois aspect of the game. Link to comment

No, just that he is not the perfect bowler as other members believe when I try to offer some gentle criticism of his bowling style. Link to comment

He'll have to learn to deal with thois aspect of the game. Definately. Short of a length at 140kph is not what to do when you have someone putting their bat through the line of the ball.

bunny Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Rubbish! He is a match winner, and will be back. He lost his bearings today, and will learn from it. Watch out for him in the next match. If PK had bowled that kind of stuff you would have termed him tripe, mediocre, rubbish. Sreesanth is a match winner for sure, but for which team he wins the match on a given day that's the big question. Link to comment
Dhondy Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Backspin or not, every ball of that second over was bowled between 142 and 145 kph. You are reading too much into it. I am not even sure a quick bowler can impart backspin on the ball. Link to comment
Desi Cartman Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 when the batsman is Jayasuriya then getting hit for boundries is ok but bowling No balls and wides is a criminal offence in such a short game .. I say lets HANG HIM :giggle: Link to comment
msb1991 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I am not even sure a quick bowler can impart backspin on the ball. Lol. Trust me, I know my stuff about fast bowling.All fast bowlers impart backspin on the ball. This counter rotation of the ball forms the basis for swing. It causes the ball to kiss the pitch and carry rather than hit the bat hard (like Alex Tudor used to) - you may have heard the term 'heavy ball' for this. Sreesanth imparts so much backspin onto the ball, that the ball tends to spend more time in the air, than otherwise. This makes his good length damn near unplayable, but shorter balls come on to the bat easily and fuller balls tend to float, giving the batsman time to react. I am not necessarily saying that it is a bad thing, just a bit of analysis. Link to comment
msb1991 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 142 and 145 kph. Yes, that is the release speed, but you and I both don't know how much speed the ball loses in the air. Link to comment
