Sanjay Manjrekar: Shreyas Iyer Absolutely Must Develop Bowling Skill

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

Iyer, who is a leg spinner, has four First-class wickets and five List A wickets to his name.

In reply to a query where a fan suggests if Iyer could be asked to bowl some overs, Manjrekar says, "He must... absolutely must, develop that skill. Will enhance his chances to keep his place, it will also serve India well. Just 3/4 overs needed off pure batsmen."

Yeah, he must but let's see.

yes if he wants to survive in long run he has to

I don't know why batsmen don't want to bowl a few overs these days.

 

Tendulkar, Ganguly, Sehwag, Yuvraj all could bowl a few overs if needed.

 

It helps if a regular bowler has an off day.

Apart from being tough for part timers, these guys are not making effort themselves by bowling in nets or ranji games that are heading towards draw. 

 

sachin use to bowl a lot in nets specially giving practice to other batters, dhoni use to start his nets by bowling

 

 

 

clearly gill can bowl, action is smooth and looks like vary pace n length.....but he needs to take this more srsly this looks very casual 

 

 

 

 

he bowls  in nets 

 

 

 

 

 

they all shud be told by TM n selectors to start rolling their arms in nets every day

They can try part time options for some time but need to groom a new all-rounder. The good part of Pandya not bowling is that atleast we have a chance to groom a new all-rounder at no.7 for now.

 

Once he starts bowling, we will have the luxury of two all-rounders and Pandya won't have to bother much about his bowling then as he can continue to bat at 6 and bowl just 5-6 overs. His primary suit is anyways batting and can look to take that average close to 35.

Padikkal bowls decently...Jaiswal is the big one. He has everything to come in and deliver. Shame he had a bad IPL.

Kohli also bowled a few matches
