India need to introduce some young and quick bowlers ... who are energetic and can be strike bowlers

We are good one day and huffing and puffing the next day. We have the makings of top world class bowlers but then our bowlers slack. Thats the difference between our howlers and the ones from south africa, England and Australia.

 

Only Bumrah, who has played limited test cricket seems to bowlw ith passion all the time.

 

We need to make sure we get the same deliverable from others too. And that cannonly come if we take some hard calls. If you retain same bowlers every series, then players will sit on their past laurels.  Need to shock some and drop them for some time to send the word out that we need fir cricketers. Youngsters coming in will only make senior pros like shami work harder for their place in the team. Heck it may even push them to work on their fitnesss.

 

Shami, Ishant, Yadav all three are not getting any younger.  All 30 or more. Shami easily looks he oldest.  Very difficult to gather just after a 3-day break.

It was not rocket science to have any rookie in place of that spraygun for this tour

They(selectors) should rather look out for Gemini circus contract

Yes, and hence I say to mix it up with younger generation. We have to be practical and say that we can’t drop all three for same overseas tour as we need to win also and have some experience, but we must start rotating one or two of them with young bowlers or other 25-28 year old bowlers. 

Saini was brilliant last year and could have been tried.

Actually Shami, Bumrah were very good today. Shami doesnt have any wickets to show but he was quite good. Ishant was quite decent and economical but pace was a bit down. Only Yadav was not good enough.

 

There were some edges and misses which could have been wickets. Just have to give credit to some of the Aussie  batsmen who made most of their opportunity. That's how the game goes. Australia will fightback, its their home conditions. India are still not out of it.

sorry dont get this thread

 

Pacers been great for a year plus.  Did well again today.  Whyy this bizzare panic going through ICF like we have let them get 300-2.

 

SA and Eng pacers did excellent as well, plus in 1st test.  Rest of world is marvelling at our seamers and aggression they show with agressive fielding and how they run in all day as King Kohli demands.

 

We just won 1st test cos of our fast bwoling attack.  And I think they bowled well today, really do, chances always being created.

 

Does that mean seam attack is closed shop?  Of course no, no part of our team should be closed shop.  But is the seam attack big area of concern for me?  Hell no.  Frankly we may have best seam attack in world cricket and defo best group of pacers in our history.  Seam attach been brilliant for last few years, no idea why panic after oppo put together a half decent partnership or 2

 

We seem so arrogant as if should be bowling aussies out for 180 and not allowing any partnerships at all.

 

Respect OP, does do good posts but this thread is massive over reaction.  Our pace attack is strongest part of our team!

How about getting rid of tail? How about bowling to Aussies without their two best batsmen? They have done well but cannot judge them with old standards and feel good about them.

Shami bowled very well. He should have had 2 wickets. Ishant is bowling within the line and is slower but was ok. Yadav was rubbish, Pandya would have done a better job - Siraj ofcourse would have been fine here.

[Vilander]

Still no 100 partnerships so it was not so poor a day. With a Very Good session or 2 India will be right back at it.
