I swear the man is a troll. Stone is mediocre as it gets. All he does is run in like a headless chicken and bowl some halwa balls at pace. Rphit and co will eat that up. Rasgulla 1 Link to comment

Suffering stress fracture of the back at this point. Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Ollie Pope probably won't play again in next game as he is struggling atm. Got out on a duck in RL OD cup semi recently. Confidence isn't high right now I think. Similar issues like Shaw had earlier. Edited August 21, 2021 by Lone Wolf Link to comment

Our boys love pace. naah olly stone just isnt about pace, he also isnt 150 that we say pace. He is mostly around 140-145 which i think batsman find very manageable these days He moves the ball, has a very good bouncer and bowls in good corridor, has good control, hits the deck hard...............can be a bit expensive at times which is fine with his wkt taking ability If eng wants to win in Aus- wood, Archer, Stone are the guys they shud look at Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 He needs to work on his game against spin, even in county he is said to struggle scoring against spinners. At 5 he ll get a lot of spin Link to comment

He wont trouble our batsmen. Neither can he trouble australian batsmen. WOod and archer is key but they lack stamina to bowl for long periods and are also injury prone. Link to comment

How many rookie promising upcoming indian batsmen will do well against Anderson etc in swinging conditions? playing anderson in swinging conditions isnt same as playing spin anywhere . He struggles even in county playing spin Thats an excuse if he struggles against jaddu axar on rank turner but plays it fine everywhere else Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 he reminds me of Ian bell rather then root Link to comment

Bell was very orthodox. Link to comment
