Quote

"Bowling fast isn't a skill. It's the attitude you carry," Tyagi says. "If you want to bowl fast, it will show in your training. When two guys are training, you'll see the guy who wants to bowl fast will be working harder. It just shows in your work ethic.

"In this World Cup, I bowled very well in the first game but got no wickets. Then the next two games, I bowled poorly but I took wickets. And finally, against Australia, I bowled well and got rewarded for them. Ups and downs are the realities of life, so I've stopped thinking about the wickets column. I have just been focusing on the process.

 

"After the first World Cup game, my father explained to me that ups and downs are part of life. Which is why you shouldn't linger on a particular performance and focus on the next game. Sometimes we might think if we do something wrong, there's everyone on TV watching us and judging us. So he tells me, 'imagine no one is watching you, you'll do better that way'."

Tyagi's plus points ----

 

----  Extra pace

----  Very Tall ... around 6'3"

----  Hits thd deck hard and gets good bounce

----  Has the aggressive attitude of a true fast bowler. 

----  Has a nasty and accurate bumper

----  Has a good and quick yorker

----  Gets outswing

----  Can seam the ball

----  Is a wicket taker as a result of the above

----  Seems like a quick learner.

 

 

Weaknesses ----

 

---- Bowls too wide of the stumps. Should come a bit closer. Angling in slightly and then seaming away can be so dangerous to batters. Angling in a lot may mean too many leg stump balls.

 

---- The steps in his run up have become too long after the lockdown and this is messing with his rhythm at times.

 

---- Needs to improve the consistency of his length balls 

 

 

He has the potential to be the next top quality fast bowler from India after Bumrah and Shami. Let's see how he progresses.

Reasons why the team should take the risk of playing him in Brisbane:

 

1. Suitable pitch

2. Novelty factor (although SPDS knows him well from RR stint)

3. Fresh body and mind - something we are short on right now.

4. Nothing to lose here - put it all on the line.  Big tasks call for big risks.

 

Just tell him that this match performance will not go on his resume and let him rip.  2-3 top order wickets to rattle them a bit is all we need.  Damn, I hope they do it.

Porel and prasidh Krishna too. Both have serious potential. All tall too.

6'3 6'4.

Tyagi's bowling is very different from Siraj, Shardul, Natarajan.

 

Much higher release points and much higher pace.

 

We need this variety with Bumrah injured. Saini has the pace but lacks the steep bounce and mental aggression of Tyagi. ( while Bumrah has it )

Am getting goosebumps just imagining some Tyagi bouncers hitting their targets.

They have injured and removed Shami and Jaddu.

 

We have injured and removed Pucovski and Conway but both in practice matches. 

 

Need to return the favour in test matches too.

If he could take out Cummins and maybe Paine just cause he is a pain. Actually no leave Paine. Just Cummins or Smith is enough.

I am a big fan of Prasidh.

 

Porel's issue is lack of pace after his injury.


I don’t think I have ever seen Porel fast even before injury or whenever I have seen him trundle people have made the same excuse for him like in the u-19 WC. Don’t rate him very highly. Has some skills though but we have better bowlers than him in that department.

In his first prominent Ranji season, Porel was sharp.

 

But I don't like the current version.

Shardul replacing Bumrah will be like snatching away a soldier's assault rifle and giving him a knife.

 

We need 2 pacers replacing the unique Bumrah.


good analogy but more like a Swiss Army knife . Multi dimensional cricketer. I am going to use that nickname  for him going forward :hatsoff:

Tyagi certainly has the ability to swing the ball both ways (from what I hv seen).    Not sure about his ability to bowl long spell without compromising speed.   That's why test cricket is challenging.


Great point. In the past we had bowlers who wouldn’t be able to sustain pace or smart bowlers like Zak or even Ishant who can up their pace at will and save their energy according to the pitch and conditions but our success has been our bowlers maintain the same pace even in 3rd and 4th spells. That stamina comes from playing a lot of cricket along with other fitness regimen. Not sure how many long spells these young prospects can keep up with.

Very exciting prospect but very very raw still. Don’t waste him in domestics though, keep him in the scheme of things and develop him.

Consider this a one-off test and blood him.  Tell him even 10-0-100-1 will not count against him as long as that 1 is SPDS :-)!!
