ash Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Ashwin look liked the only bowler who can get us wickets in the WTC final. He is at a stage in his career where he can take take the pitch out of the equation. He should be the first name on the list IMO. Cricspin, Frustrated, Lord and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Ashwin should play white ball cricket too, especially T20s IMHO Ankit_sharma03 1 Link to comment
CodeOfWisden Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 So should they both play at trent Bridge, according to me Jadeja is batting quite beautifully these days his bowling isn't to shabby either and Ashwin is easily the best spinner on the planet, but in the WTC final our team was surely short of one pacer. This is some dilemma, Shardul over Jadeja can be an option but I am not sure if it's right. There's no definite right answer you can come up with and we can't really blame the TM if they go with either combination Link to comment

I will also play Siraj over Ishant but I know for SURE it wont happen due to rat Link to comment

On current form, Bumrah doesn't get in. Link to comment

But the truth is indian fast bowling attack made a difference tbf. Indian fast bowling is the ebst in the world. Period. From 2017-2021 they were the best. We shall see how bunrah bounces back but now our attack is even more potent with siraj bumrah and shami or possibly umesh. Just don't have swing bowlers to suit English and kiwi conditions. Well technically we do. Bhuvi, thakur and siraj are fantastic swing bowlers. Bhuvi has fitness problems unfortunately. Link to comment
Dery Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Bumrah has been below average for some time now Link to comment

Bumrah completely went missing and there were some(atleast one) schoolboy captaincy errors.Yet we bowled them out for 249 That's good enough if you bat well.We didn't in either innings Cricspin 1 Link to comment
zen Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Those stats are misleading as overseas spinners would only play on relatively helpful surfaces more often than not, while the key home spinner would play most of the games against a variety of opponents Below is the data wrt Ind spinners since 2018 (the period from the table). Kuldeep too has done well in a selected test that he played in: View overall figures Primary team India Host country Australia or England or New Zealand or South Africa Start of match date greater than or equal to 1 Jan 2018 Type of bowler (by style) spin bowler Ordered by bowling average (ascending) Overall figures Player Span Mat Inns Overs Mdns Runs Wkts BBI BBM Ave Econ SR 5 10 GH Vihari 2018-2021 9 7 45.3 9 132 5 3/37 3/38 26.40 2.90 54.6 0 0 RA Jadeja 2018-2021 7 12 233.5 42 654 24 4/62 7/258 27.25 2.79 58.4 0 0 R Ashwin 2018-2021 12 22 491.1 99 1214 43 4/55 7/121 28.23 2.47 68.5 0 0 Kuldeep Yadav 2018-2019 2 2 40.5 7 143 5 5/99 5/99 28.60 3.50 49.0 1 0 Washington Sundar 2021-2021 1 2 49.0 7 169 4 3/89 4/169 42.25 3.44 73.5 0 0 Link to comment
