I think 142-146 is his ceiling. Fastest delivery of him is 148 which I remember last season..previous to that it was around 144-145. Though he seems to me as a bowler who can bowl long spells without breaking a sweat....very similar to Akashdeep & Shami who too can bowl long spells. express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The frequency with which Harshit is hitting 144 k / 145 k in thd last 2 matches, despite bowling slower deliveries inbetween, is probably an indication that he can bowl.quicker. Plus Harshit is just 22 and Indians are at their quickest after age 24. Mosher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

express bowling Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 (edited) Good 142 k indipping attempted yorker by Harshit but goes for 4 Edited April 16 by express bowling Mosher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
express bowling Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 (edited) Harshit did not bowl a single bad ball in his 4th over but still went for 19 runs. That is the nature of the game now. Slower Attempted yorker .. dot ball Attempted indipping yorker Rising short ball Slower Slower Edited April 16 by express bowling tapandrun and Mosher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jos was hanging on the backfoot... He was waiting for anything short and first ball he even delayed his swing. Eden Garden is a tough venue to defend sometimes. Only thing he could have done is bowl a full fast wide yorker or even a full toss. tapandrun and express bowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Need4Speed Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) even though Harshit got a beating in final over from Butler but these are the contests and experiences that will make him mature and a better bowler..this is learning at the ost of who cares ipl..that may come in handy when he plays for India.. by default variation for him means slower bowl..he tried that 1st bowl and Butler smashed him for a six..imo..if was just floaty length slower bowl..I prefer Patrick Cummins slower off cutters which he hits with intent and gets bounc etoo..hopefully..the slower bowls will have more intent in future.. other variation he tried was yorker..unfortunately that came as a lower full toss but batters of Butlers calibre who is well set easily hit it straight for 4..so the issue was execution but well tried.. 3rd one he tried was slightly short of length but I felt he didnt banged it with intent..and became easy hit me shortish bowl for Butker which went for 6 again.. by this time..the damage has been done.. It takes lot of confidence,awareness,skills,fitness and maturity to be absolutely perfect with your plan and execution.. since he is so young..and more he plays..more he will learn..and work on..I am happy that this will go down as good experience for him..hopefully he wont feel down in confidence after this last over and will learn from it.. Perhaps..he may also try to set better fields next time..like off side maximum..and try wide yorkers and slower spongy bowls on wide off side too..

tapandrun Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) This is where New Ind bowlers have to learn quickly -- Sen did it and now Rana they nearly got their side to a winning position and then 1 bad or not so good over lost them the match, top batters will try to get 20+ runs over in crunch situations they have to be smart and find ways to stop them from getting 2 boundaries in an over try finishing well. Cannot lose games in 19th/20th overs games are being decided in this little time frame, v.good batting by Jos and v.v. effective quick knock by Powel - RR were down and dusted he added the so required momentum and belief.

tapandrun Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 4 hours ago, express bowling said: Chahal and Ashwin bowling as poorly as Sen. Chahal has been getting wkts mostly bowling defensively- Bowling away from batters he is not targeting stumps or edges. He is relying more on batters making mistake and power failure in the shots, this only works when batter has to hit every ball or there is power failure. Domestic or Ind batter does not move much in the crease making it easier for Chahal to take wkt with Intnl batters having ability to move in crease/and reverse sweep or ability to hit balls moving away from them its just defensive line hopping batter makes the mistake which does not happen often in intnl cricket rollingstoned 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tapandrun Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) 4 hours ago, express bowling said: Poor lines has always been Kuldeep Sen's issue. Let's accept it. Need some fixing in action or need to bowl more in the matches, has the ingredients to be a good bowler. Decent pace from all the lengths- short, full, good length , has zip bowls from close to stumps,bounce and wkt taking ability Edited April 16 by tapandrun express bowling and Mosher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can bowl bit quicker, as mentioned before he is trying to add new deliveries ,it takes time to develop the repetition at full arm speed. He wont be Umran/Mayank/Tyagi** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tapandrun Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 GT can drop Johnson for Tyagi and bring in Miller , this strengthen their batting and Tyagi would be similar to Johnson. In 4 matches Johnson has 4 wkt at 9+ eco. Tyagi wont do much worse. express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
