This thread is for those who haven't drunk the kool-aid on "phasst"ness, those who still retain the mental capacity to appreciate a champion bowler who can move the ball like a magician, without any easy noticeable 'tell' for the batsmen to pick it up.

 

The man who was Man of the Series in his last test tour to England, and not just for his lion-hearted carrying of the bowling attack. 

 

Relevant to the current shambles that the Indian team and some of you are experiencing, I'd like to point out his ODI stats in the last 3 years.

 

36 games, Economy rate of 5.22.  47 wickets.  Averaging more than a wicket per  game, respectably around 30 runs per wicket.  Economy rate that is priceless in 350 par games.  

 

oh and by the way, he just has to turn up at the top of his bowling mark for Aaron Finch to stain his pants a dark yellow. The bunny-ness is as predictable as it is reliable.  Bhuvi in Australia in the last 3 years?  The land of road wickets?  Economy rate of 4.96.  8 wickets in 3 games @17.  

 

Here's to one of the unsung heroes of modern Indian cricket, my favorite bowler for whom I am unashamedly biased.  

 

Take a bow, Bhuvi.  You are being missed.  And even by those who claim not to "rate" you.  

 

 

Looks like a moderator stole @beetle's log in credentials!

 

Count me in.  Except he is so injury prone it's hard to consistently depend on him, no?

Ageing trundler. Spends more time putting on make-up and shaving eyebrows than taking wickets. Time to move on.

Bhuvi might be too injured to play longer but we do need a swing bowling replacement. In all recent matches our opposition had bowlers like hazelwood and boult perform while our seam bowlers get hit.

ah yes, which  is why Australia are averaging over 150 for first wicket against us in all matches shami and bumrah played. Must be because of bhuvi

He hardly takes wickets with new ball.
