zen Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Siraj is quite good with the new ball, esp. gets the swing going similar to Boult Ideally should be in the world cup squad ... below looks a potent bowling attack: Siraj Bhuvi or ... Bumrah Natarajan 4 seamers + 1 spinner Edited April 14, 2021 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we rely on Bumrah and Natarajan to contain and bowl well in the middle overs and at the death but we also need a bowler who can use the new ball well ... If you look at MI's attack, it is Boult with the new ball that gives it an edge (makes other bowlers effective too by picking up early wkts to put pressure on the other team) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuxiliA Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I would have Shami instead of Siraj. He's much better death bowler and takes plenty of wickets too. kohli 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 As of today for me Locked Bumrah Bhuvi Nattu Thakur but its more becoz of his batting Under doubt Shami Siraj Deepak- simple get back his rhythm Saini Prasidh (one among saini vs Prasidh ) Spin dept Locked Ashwin Rahul chahar Under doubt Varun. C - if he is able to maintain his mystery for one more season Chahal - need his form back Kuldeep - has to be miraculous turnaround Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In India- Mumbai, Kolkata, Hyd, Pune and few more are absolute belters with WC just a few months away, the team would be more focused on current form esp. for bowlers, which is past 6 to 12 months Also note that Ind has Bumrah & Natrajan to bowl at the death, along with the 3rd seamer like Bhuvi. The role of the 4th “wkt taking” seamer like Siraj (or whoever) is to bowl 2-3 overs with the new ball to get wkts with the swing (not concerned with bowling at the death) much like what someone like Boult does with the new ball for e.g. Edited April 14, 2021 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shardul because he is a bowling all-rounder. But Siraj can be in the squad. If Sundar can improve his big hitting then 7. Jadeja 8. Sundar 9. Bhuvi 10. Siraj 11. Bumrah Is possible.

Mariyam Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Rahul Chahar has looked impressive. Shardul always performs for India. These guys must be in the extended squad at least, if nor the starting 11. express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
