express bowling Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 1. Pacers of different heights lend variety to the pace attack. Skiddy quick bowlers and bouncy quick bowlers combine to form interesting combos. Marshal 5'10", Roberts 6'1", Holding 6'4" and Garner 6'8" provided a lot of variety in terms of release points and bounce. Shami 5'9", Bumrah 6'0" and Ishant 6'5" do the same ... and have become a great fast bowling trio in tests since 2018. Steyn 5'11" and Morkel 6'5" or Waqar 5'10" and Akram 6'2" provided this variety too. 2. IMO it is better to have just 1 pacer in the playing 11 who is less than 6 feet. The others should preferably be taller. 3. If a pacer is short then he should preferably be really quick and skiddy and have the ability to get steep bounce for his height. Like Marshall, Shami or Steyn. If a short pacer is not quick and skiddy then metronomical accuracy is a must and it is even better if he is a proper swing bowler. raki05, Mosher and Suhaan 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly ! Bumrah is around 6'0" but gets bounce like a 6'2" pacer because of his extra long arms and high arm action.

Better if you don't talk about IPL "scouts" Did i say short fellows should not play ? Fact is Sushant got more wickets in U-19 than Aksash , he should be been ahead of akash in queue but he was not picked . What i meant was most of his wickets were by bowling short in U-19 , that may not work at higher level. But he has age on side , if he develops other varieties , he can make it .

He needs a well developed stock ball targeting the top of off stump and use the bouncer as a surprise weapon. Sushant, in his current stage of development, did not interest me that much because his primary weapon is a bouncer and that may not work for a 5'10" pacer .

Fact is he picked wickets,your comments clearly highlighted his height,let me tell you Akash was also trying short deliveries but wasn't as effective as Sushant ,i said Sushant has a more potent bouncer whereas Akash was getting hit when he tried it If you make a comment try to be clear with it Rightarmfast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same height, not very different bowling style, and the visual pace is very similar. Mosher, express bowling and Suhaan 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightarmfast Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Shami seems to be bowling a yard short to register slower speeds. But by jove, is he bowling with aggression. He is looking hungry 144.2 as I write this. Btw, broadcasters were showing figures '"of" Shami. They dont know they need to show figures "to" Shami for him to perform better Suhaan, speedheat and Mosher 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
