What a raddi pitch to start the IPL. Curator needs serious spanking for this farce of a pitch. Ball turned big. 7.2 degrees average turn today in comparison to 2.7 degree IPL average..

With the kind of pace attack they have no choice but to have rank Turner's. Visiting teams must be smarter and try to outsmart them in their own game at Chennai.

Saini  1st over

 

140

138

137  ... nasty bouncer hits Watson's helmet

139  ... hurries Watson... LBW appeal

143 ... another sharp looking ball

140

 

Looked quicker than that

Saini bumrah with shami as a backup would be lethal attack.

Shami, Bumrah and Saini as backup instead of bhuvi only if Saini has a great IPL and earns his place. Remember international vs IPL is not comparable. Dhoni and Rayudu become champions here. Unadcut, kaul, thakur all are useful at IPL level but not international. Note.  Not comparing Saini to these bowlers. Just making a point IPL isn't the right metric.

A bowler with pace if he has half decent accuracy will do well at any level.

I think Umesh has half decent accuracy. We need more accuracy like Bumrah. So correct statement is :

A bowler with pace if he has half decent accuracy can do well at any level.

Umesh has no accuracy.  Shami is half decent accurate. Bumrah is decent accurate. Only likes of McGrath/Hazlewood were/are real accurate bowlers.
