Akashdeep looks unsuited to the format...  Kuldeep Sen bowled with serious pace and better accuracy than him. 

Both should focus on ODIs and Tests atm.  But Kuldeep Sen has more weapons in his arsenal. 

maybe dew effect. Akash has the pace and skills

Looked one dimensional wrt lengths..  Test match lengths seem to be his strength.  Need to bowl 140k for him to do well.  Bowled mid 130's mostly today 

 

Another thing I felt about Akash today was that he was getting less bounce than he usually does.

Akash deep mostly brings the ball into right handers that will always be an issue in T20s, that is why Harshit was not playing first few games last season.

 

When batter it set to hit the ball, its easier when they know it is only going to come in, like how Sky planted his foot out side off and dragged the ball into legside boundary.

Similarly its easier to ramp balls coming in and to play hook shots after moving inside the line of the ball.

 

 Harshit gets extra bounce that helps him even though he also brings the ball in, before injury one could see he was trying to take the ball away for the first time in IPL.

 

But Akash deep looked good prospect for test, had good zip of the surface and was hitting the bat hard and sustained pace for 6/7 overs. Should have played next test.

Would like see if he gets that kind of zip naturally or was just one of better days for him.

 

Sen was good last match till his last over, bowled at good clicks has nautal ball that goes away from right handers, bowls from closer to stumsp.

Does not have t20 skills, bt for test or Odis looks good- Yorker, bouncer, full, 3/4 lenght ball all had some kind zip. Should have bowled fast in the stumps, pace change does not look like his thing.

Poor 3rd over from Akashdeep.

 

Dew causing problems for most bowlers in the 2nd innings. 

Watch india drop him from tests now based on IPL. Retard,* logic.

Missed the match yesterday but please Siraj, take a 6 months break, get married, go for a vacation, whatever. Do it voluntarily because you have become the poster boy of mediocrity now.

Siraj has this bipolar syndrome if i can call it. Either he does very well or very bad.  There is no consistency. In hindsight his presence was not needed in WC final on a blackish pitch. Ashwin could have been played.

Siraj has lost pace in the last few months. His hard length cross seamers are not hurrying batters anymore.

 

He is doing well only when the new ball is swinging significantly.

SKY said in the post match interview that he has told the MI management that he won't face Bumrah in the nets. Because he does not want broken toes or a broken back.   :phehe:

Lomror faced the wrath...poor chap was literally limping in pain as the first ball he faced was right at its toes.

Worst possible first delivery for a batter

Ashwin wouldn't have made much difference, match was lost by batsmen.

 

But I just can't fathom how Siraj is an automatic starter in all formats, all conditions.

Typical " Seniors First " policy that we keep writing about.

 

When Siraj was at the peak of his powers in 2018 and 19, he did not get picked. Now that he is in the coterie, he will be picked without putting in any thoughts about his current efficacy.

Our best team for the Knockouts would have been Hardik in for Siraj.

 

Had Pandya been fully fit, we could have taken this gamble for just a couple of games. That would have greatly strengthened our batting without weakening our bowling much.

 

We lost the WC coz of our p**s poor batting depth. Otherwise Rohit was taking the WC away from Aus until be got out.

This makes sense. They were even scared of tyagi in nets. Rahul ran away. 

 

Nobody wants to face mayank either. 

 

How will batsmen improve. I know it's scary in the nets to face bumrah shami etc. But you have no choice. What will you do if opponents bowl bouncers at you? You have to be prepared right. 

 

Same mindset was quite prevalent in sunny g's era. They refused to face bowlers who are quick in nets.
