I think in tests Bumrah is generally good. But the way he is being used in white ball cricket OR the way he is choosing to use himself in white ball cricket, is the biggest reason for his diminishing returns in the shorter formats. He hardly bowls good length channel balls with the white ball ... just bowling defensive lines and lengths. Even Siraj has started to go this route with the white ball.

Even Siraj has started to go this route with the white ball. yes, I agree he is "generally good" in tests, but he does go missing in some important matches (e.g., WTC). also agree he is bowling very defensively - not sure whether it is TM (whether it be Ind or MI) or his fault (or both) Suhaan, express bowling and Mosher 3

DarkProfile Posted April 9, 2022 Posted April 9, 2022 Feel that our main bowlers like Bumrah and Siraj are displaying burn-out symptoms - lack of hunger, motivation, energy and consistency. Constant exposure to cricket, when not physically then mentally (ads, promotions, PR, etc.). Do they really find quality time to replenish their mojo? Don't think so. Suhaan and Vijy 2
DarkProfile Posted April 9, 2022 Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) I've also seen this belief that overwork = success. Many people believe that going to gym daily is in their best interest, when actually it is the other way round. Rest is ESSENTIAL. An athlete should sleep for at least 9 hours daily for muscles memory, anti-ageing and anti-stress benefits. Roger Federer used to sleep 12 hours every day when he was at his peak. People think someone is fat because he eats a lot, when the silent culprit is lack of adequate sleep. All these injuries that befall on our cricketers, I suspect they are mostly from overwork and inadequate rest. Edited April 9, 2022 by DarkProfile Vijy and express bowling 2

Yes,very much related to psychology, But here bowling attack of Mumbai is also weak compared to what they had before,Bumrah is seen off most of the times DarkProfile, express bowling and Mosher 3

Umran is phenomenal with regards to Pace. hope he is trained better , i am not too happy with his Line n length. Coches simly say bowl between 2nd to 5th wicket and good length , yorker length and some time lil shorter than good length. line n length are simple to tell but difficult to follow- i hope he is able to maintain his line n length also a little more else he wont get to play for India easily. even with his current line n length , he creates a lot of wicket taking opportunities. a lil improvisation in his line n length can get him purple cap.
vishalvirsingh Posted April 10, 2022 Posted April 10, 2022 today rahulrulezz and myself are catching up at brabourne stadium for the KKR V/S Delhi Match at 3:00 PM IST. though he is in west stand I am at east stand block 14 express bowling, Vijy, DarkProfile and 1 other 4
