Shami is about 7 kph to 8 kph quicker than Wagner. Don't think he would have been as hostile as Wagner if he was bowling 127 k to 137 k like Wagner. Mosher 1 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Unbelievably poor from NZ. I think they just dismantle against Aus, they are not this bad. They can't beat them even at home. However @Stan AF is right, this series was hard to follow as a neutral,could bear couple of hours of this series. Now I know what neutrals must have felt in the Indian home season. Also, WTC sucks, what a glorified gimmick. Link to comment

SK_IH Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 13 minutes ago, express bowling said: Why ? What's the point ? No competition, no fun. The problem with the format, just too hard to follow over a long period of time. Also the format, a final to decide a WTC winner is making mockery of the test format. It should have been a 3 match series ideally. If you are investing so much money and time into something, invests some more to make it worthwhile. In an ideal world, undisputed WTC winner should be decided between two teams playing home, away and at neutral. Obviously, conditions may not allow that but it will be better than this gimmick.

India have the hit the deck bowlers and thats what will work in australia.... NZ have ferguson & Henry and should have utilized them... Only certain pitches in australia favours swing...and that too on certain days.......only those matches southee / boult should be used... Our Team Management should note this and not entertain taking deepak chahar and bhuvaneshwar to Australia. Link to comment

Stan AF Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Impressive. But Mcgrath had to bowl in tandem with Warne. Link to comment

G_B_ Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 They were still reeling from sandpaper gate with some new blood This is a more settled unit now. I still back india to win in india v aus without much fuss. But i wlll not rule out an indian whitewash in aus either Link to comment

But i wlll not rule out an indian whitewash in aus either they beat us 4-0 even with the fab 4 despite having bowlers like Hilfenhaus and Siddle back in 2011. Lets give our batting credit where it is due. I don't think sandpaper gate has anything to do with the quality of bowling. we successfully negated both starc and cummins. Pujara was key for us and hell be key next year as well. Also, our bowlers are just as good as theirs and now hopefully kohli and Shastri have the intelligence to blood in Saini in Tests, where he will perform much better given his FC record. express bowling 1 Link to comment

Exactly ! And our fast bowlers, Bumrah, Shami and Ishant, bowled better than this trio in their own back yard. cowboysfan and FischerTal 2 Link to comment
putrevus Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 India faced full battery of their fast bowlers.Even if Warner and Smith had played we would have won, our bowlers were dynamic and if not for Rain we should have won the series 3-1.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk cowboysfan, Frustrated, express bowling and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment
