Global.Baba Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 The new ball bowlers are 2nd string. With Bhuvi,Bumrah,Shami all not playing and with the kind of bowlers that are playing Kaul,Thakur etc,you kinda expect them to suck. However Dhoni or even Raina are your first choice players,hence the focus. Mosher and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment

Do whatever experiment you want. Open the batting with Chahal and Kuldeep too but end of the day if you are not playing to win the match you are insulting the game, the opposition and the fans. He was rightly booed. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk that i don't know . Only he and the captain can tell.I too was disappointed with Dhoni's way. Link to comment
putrevus Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I would take express inexperienced teenager over these trundlers. Unless these trundlers have special skills they won't be good enough. This is where Umesh Yadav is so disappointing, he has not grown as a fast bowler even after a decade of international cricket. express bowling 1 Link to comment

He doesn't have the backing of Kohli and Dhoni never liked pacers anyway. What was he doing on an Aus A tour when India were playing tests in England. back in 2014, or warming the bench in SA after being India's best pacer at home for nearly 2 years? If a pacer only bowls in India or on roads away, then how are his stats going to improve? "Bhuvi" on the other hand gets all the accolades, in part due to his consistency, but does anyone remember what he does on flat Indian decks or even Aus? UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
G_B_ Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 and again you cant win jack if you are destroyed with the new ball all the time forget about our batting issues. This is the number 1 issue India need to correct. We are always playing catch up with the bowling. UrmiSinhaRay, sensible-indian and jalebi_bhai 1 2 Link to comment
putrevus Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Who exactly are our first string bowlers, if Bumrah not being there makes new ball bowling impotent then we never had good fast bowlers. Edited July 17, 2018 by putrevus UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
cric_fan Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Should have selected one of the young lads from the U19 side maybe. This Thakur guy is bakwaas. Bhuvi McGrath is not a LOI bowler. LORD_analyst, G_B_ and UrmiSinhaRay 2 1 Link to comment
putrevus Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 MSK Prassad is bane to Indian cricket , this guy is gutless and useless, I would havve picked all pacers from Under 19 over this trundler brigade, they cannot do any worse than these bozos.

I don't get it, you're saying our (new ball) bowlers are bad or that our openers aren't doing too well? If it's the latter then yes we need better opener, or at least openers who're willing to take calculated risks. At the age of 35 and 36 Dada and SRT outperformed this sorry bunch in the 2007 ODI series. The guy called Sharma can't play anything outside his comfort zone, Dhawan has a habit of throwing it away, Rahul has killed Kohli's dog in the past else he'd be an auto pick for openers in LO.

speedheat Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Bhuvi can still be our clutch new ball bowler,poor guy was clearly unfit today , selfish management unnecessarily rushed him in the playing 11, all he needs to do is do what he did in 2015/16, take some time off improve his fitness and pace, he is a different beast when he bowls in 140+kph, he still has a stellar eco. Rate even in the era of flat tracks. He has a role to play in 2019wc Rasgulla and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment

Pollack Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 On 7/15/2018 at 8:34 PM, Pollack said: Why is nobody talking about our super **** new ball bowlers? Because they were expected to be super sh!T. On the other hand, why isn't Rohit criticised for his great batting display of 15(26) chasing 323. He bettered it today. 2(18) Another player after dhoni making a fool out of gullible cricket fans and experts alike. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
rtmohanlal Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 proven failures like Yadav,Bhuvi(in one dayers only) get selected to share new ball. 35+ avg:ing bowlers are not fit to be in the team .After testing them for a few games they should be immediately kicked out and new faces should be tested,Unfortunately that's not at all happening.
