If you call someone a trundler you should be consistent with that. Thakur who gets called trundle has bowled at the same speed as Saini. Why not apply it consistently or drop it? Link to comment

Shardul will bowl Same or less pace all the time. It's his ceiling Saini can bowl quicker but probably is vary of being wayward or injury Link to comment

You'll get the point A fast bowler not bowling at his usual pace for a few overs doesn't make him a trundler. Saini was fastest for us just last game. They all are vary about injuries seeing how they are getting injured. Mosher 1 Link to comment

You'll get the point From what I understand, you just didn't like Saini when he was fast either. But now you're only criticizing his speeds.. your original complaints were that he bowls filth and batsmen will easily attack him and he can't pick wickets in tests. Now you have changed your goal posts Suhaan and express bowling 2 Link to comment

I have seen every intnl match he played and in none of them he was able to bowl faaaastt after the 5 over mark... Hence i dont buy the hype about 150 kph long format bowler. Link to comment

Fair enough, but this is your original complaint "will go for 4+ rpo in every innings and will lose any semblance of pressure built frlm other side. " It looks like when that complaint isn't coming true you are clutching at different reasons to hate him Suhaan 1 Link to comment

Forward Defence Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Saini took 4 wickets with an old ball in the last test where wicket taking was fairly difficult. Would have got Labuschagne today if Rahane had held on. Was a tad expensive last game with Starc getting hold of his bouncers but was looking more disciplined today. Not been too bad in my opinion.

This thread is not just about his bowling analysis. It's also about his fitness. If a bowler does not last more than one test, what are we going to achieve with his great bowling ?

They all played 5 day games after almost a year so injury issues are not surprising as they have not played cricket for long specially bowling 20 overs a day. Even Ashwin being a spinner could not last the series. You are blaming a fast bowler. Suhaan 1 Link to comment
Bhoot Posted January 15, 2021 Author Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Siraj so far this series and and now nattu on his debut both have out bowled saini. So no excuses of inexperience. Edited January 15, 2021 by Bhoot Link to comment

So no excuses of inexperience. Before this test, Siraj averaged 33.4 with a SR of 74. Before this test Saini averaged 29.8 with a SR of 43. And Saini did not get to bowl on the pace-friendlier MCG pitch. Siraj picked just 2 wickets on the flat Sydney pitch whereas Saini picked 4 That is not out-bowling. Today, Saini bowled in good areas ... was reasonably economical in his 8 overs ... had an easy catch dropped off his bowling. Can't fault his bowling stats today.

Suhaan Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Its not about Saini only ,they will pounce upon Tyagi,Prasidh,Mavi and others ,they criticize any one who is discussed here Going by their logic of us only dicussing 150+ bowlers means India is filled with express pacers,no its not We have discussions over good fast bowling, that's it Like you batting enthusiasts appreciate an elegant cover drive,on drive ,a cut ,a pull Some of us like a good sharp bouncer,a fast yorker There is a prejudice pacers with less pace aren't that good with red ball cricket that is why sides across the world go with 135-140+ pacers But Natrajan has done so well with his control , Natrajan is unique not evry less pace bowler can be like him,he is too good,it only fulfills an Indian purpose But can't load the side with too many like him as i have said Natrajan is one of a kind ,unique Edited January 15, 2021 by Suhaan Cricketics, express bowling, Mosher and 6 others 2 7 Link to comment
