gakgupta Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Well...This is not just the best hostile bowling by WI but by any team in the recent past. There were instances where one bowler was fast and hostile. But here , except holder, all other bowlers are cranking up the speed It is a treat to watch. Sent from my Lenovo A7020a48 using Tapatalk
Vk1 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Jason holder seems to have the best inswinger in the game right now. They are indeed a good bowling attack on their pitches.
gakgupta Posted January 24, 2019 Author Posted January 24, 2019 Jason holder seems to have the best inswinger in the game right now. They are indeed a good bowling attack on their pitches.He had indeed developed his game by many folds. He is a all conditon bowler and very good lower order batsmen.Sent from my Lenovo A7020a48 using Tapatalk
sandeep Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Watching Sam Curran get bounced out was a bit of delayed malham on some painful wounds. Cricketics, Laaloo, Stradlater and 5 others 8
Sloane84 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) This is what is called Irresistible Fast Bowling ! Reminiscent of the era of Holding, Garner, Marshall and Croft. As West Indians would say "Pace like Fyah !! When on song, no batsman can withstand it. Greg Chappell and Sunil Gavaskar tried, so did Javed Miandad and Allan Border. However, there is no batsman in the current era who could average 40 plus against that attack...….not Kohli, not Smith, not Williamson..and certainly not Root. England, in short, are home town bullies. They have actually taken away this mantle from India. Like what Ambrose did to them in 1994, England will again get their derrieres sorely kicked in this series. Edited January 24, 2019 by Sloane84 chewy 1
Ankit_sharma03 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Ind-WI series wud be fun If somehow thomas also finds his feet in test cricket......that WI attack wud be some attack flamy 1
chewy Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Nothing hostile, OTT nostalgia for WI...much Only Shannon Gabriel bowled quick, regularly 140kph plus It was good accurate bowling, especially from Roach and Holder There was no usual 1 or 2 freebie an over from West Indies express bowling, abc, mishra and 3 others 1 5
mishra Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 ^ Exactly, Ball is simply bouncing and coming off the surface slightly quicker. Its not easy to play on such surface.. because of above characteristics even bad balls are risky to dispatch
vvvslaxman Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 4 hours ago, MultiB48 said: it was mostly accuracy and hitting the seam .neither holder nor roach bowled that quick .also thank the duke ball. Roach's top speed 136 kph. But the movement he got with control was nothing but phenomenal

We should have targeted his rib cage we didn't do it more same with lots of these British should have bowled more bouncers sandsaims 1
Nonbeliever Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 In one day west indies have become top bowling attack. Don't know how people change their opinions in a single inings.

Only Gabriel was over 140.

No. Not by a long shot ! 9 hours ago, gakgupta said: There were instances where one bowler was fast and hostile. But here , except holder, all other bowlers are cranking up the speed Showed on TV ... Roach had a fastest speed of 136.8 kph and an average speed of 132.8 kph after taking 5 wickets. That is just medium-fast. Alzarri Joseph was bowling 128 kph to 141 kph. That is fast-medium. Only Gabriel was bowling quick. Edited January 25, 2019 by express bowling Mosher, chewy, Nonbeliever and 1 other 4

Only Gabriel was over 140. Say there is a sports bike which can reach 250 kmph and a scooter that can overexertert itself to go to 100 kmph. When both are being driven 100 kmph, there is a difference b/w how they function at that speed .... for e.g. the sports bike could be at 3000 rpm, while the scooter at its limit Edited January 25, 2019 by zen flamy, CSK Fan and rkt.india 2 1
ShoonyaSifar Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 Was irresistible to watch. Too good. And always fun to see England crumble. mishra 1
