Ask anyone on this forum and my logic will be right. @express bowling

 

Isn't it right for Bumrah to start from shorter versions instead of longer?

Personally, I would prefer Bumrah to start with matches where he has to bowl not more than 4 to 8 overs a day.

 

In the article that I posted in the " Bumrah " thread ... it says that Bumrah wants to start with T20Is and had talked to Ganguly to allow him to do the same. Ganguly agreed and allowed him to skip the Ranji match.

 

But different views on this subject are obviously possible.

Rajpoot not playing

Kuldeep not playing - he lacks form he shud play 

manish pandey not playing- has been on bench why didnt he play

KL not playing- finally getting some form 4 day cricket wud have been ideal 

Saini not playing

iyer not playing

Dube not playing

Sundar not playing

 

 

has it been told to white ball players not to play this ranji game

 

Obviously a T20 series vs mighty SL (10 days away) is more important for this TM. If it undermines Ranji Trophy, so be it.

The point is whether Bumrah should have a heavy work load from day 1 or not. I am glad that the mindlessness of state officials has been put into control by the board in the long term interest of the the player and the national side.

 

Almost all the board officials have got their job because of some connect or backing from powerful lobbies. If you are interested in rectifying that system, then please have a separate thread rather than creating confusion with respect to player selection.  In this case Ganguly and Shah are right even though it would have been better if the state officials had that good sense to take the right decision in the first place. It's not healthy for an institution that always some top guy needs to take the right decision on behalf of the middle management. The model is not sustainable and can be misappropriated by a power hungry folks in future.(we had one such example in recent history)

If a cricket board President shouldn't be talking about his players, what should he be discussing - climate change? Its not like all other state associations or any other sporting body in India gets presidents with proven 'ability'. This model is still better than having SC appointed 'experts' who besides having zero sports administration knowledge can't even manage the low-level politics running any association in India requires.

 

(PS- the 'crook' has achieved long overdue legislation which no one else thought was possible...wish we had few more 'crooks' like him in decision making posts)

Simarjeet Singh 4 wickets too.

[BlackMamba]

Why are the scores across the board low?

Are they all laying in green wickets ?

I hope they don't over do it.  Will prefer a more balanced wicket with swing, pace, bounce and spin on the last 2.5 days.

Tushar Deshpande  4 for 44

[Rightarmfast]

Avesh Khan bowling medium. Dont think theres any speed gun error. K Sen from the other side is bowling close to 140.

[Ankit_sharma03]

samson made 78 

[Rightarmfast]

Avesh Khan bowling at 86 kph and 92kph. Definitely a speed gun error.

[express bowling]

Pandey clocking 117 k, 118 k to 125 k.

 

I don't think he is slower than 125 k to 135 k range.

Arrey yaar, fir to kuldeep Sen was bowling around 145 . And I don't think so. But the speed guns are behaving erratic. K sens speed seemed fine.

Kuldeep Sen looks around 135 k to 145 k to me in this match.

 

But I do realize that it is just a guess and may not be totally correct.

The slowest front-line pacers that we see in international cricket nowadays ... like Abbas and Philander ... bowl about 122 k to 135 k.

 

I think that it is unlikely that Pandey is slower than these guys.

[Rightarmfast]

Even if we say that Avesh's pace is low because of speed gun, his line and length is terrible. He just doesnt have the discipline to be an international level bowler.
