SecondSlip Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Who is the better bowling allrounder? Who will finish with a better career? Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Thakur is more a proper batsman than Hasan Ali. Quint essential 2nd change bowler in some conditions. But i am not sold on his fitness yet. I very much doubt Thakur will play a lot of Test matches. Ankit_sharma03 1 Link to comment
Lone Wolf Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I highly doubt Hasan Ali can play knocks like the one we saw in Gabba & here in Oval even in his dreams. Comparing Lord with a mere mortal is pure blasphemy express bowling, nevada and Cricspin 1 2 Link to comment
Adamant Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Hasan Ali is hardly an allrounder, he is a slogger. Although I think he is the better bowler. maniac, New guy and Ankit_sharma03 3 Link to comment
adi B Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Thakur can improve his bowling by improving his fitness and stamina ,he looks out of steam after a few overs ,he needs to get in better shape ,it'll automatically make his bowling better and his speed will be up. He looks a good #8 as a batsman, surely a decent contributor in both odis and tests Mosher 1 Link to comment
maniac Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) I would say Faheem Ashraf is a better comparison if you want to go there. I have been following this guy in the last 2 series, he is actually a very decent test bat. Bowling I would say he is a little less than Thakur saab. Hassan Ali is a better bowler but Thakur saab is on a different planet with the bat. Basically what I am saying is Hassan Ali + Faheem = Lord Thakur Some Mullah who writes Pakistani text books 1 Pakistani muslamaan = 100 hindoos Maniac’s cricket acumen on ICF 100 Pakistani allrounders are still no where near Lord Thakur all hail the man.

Umesh and Shami don’t have 200 wickets still and they have been around for a decade now. Also when we have a bowling unit like ours it’s tough for one guy to take bucketloads of wickets unless you are a spinner playing in SC. We have 2 star spinners who can play as standalone bowlers but we have 5-6 fast bowlers and Thakur will always bowl in a group. I think he will end up at best in the 100-150 wicket range at best and sure I see him averaging 30 With the bat. I can see him get 200 Odi wickets though if he becomes a regular as a bowling allrounder in the side. express bowling 1 Link to comment
sandeep Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Thakur averages 39 with the bat in test cricket so far, That's almost double what Babar "gareebon ka besht batsman" Azam averaged in test cricket after similar number of tests. He will only get better from here. At this point with 3 match-winning half-centuries in Australia and England, he has out-performed what many Pakistani test batsmen achieve in their entire careers. With ball in hand, he averages 22? Hassan Ali is not fit to shine his bowling spikes. Sgattick10, express bowling and anish2tweet 1 2 Link to comment
coffee_rules Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Thakur is better than the Wagah border comedian. Link to comment
neel roy Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) Shardul has played 4 tests ( literally 3) and has average of 38 with bat 22 with ball , 3 half centuries and 14 wickets.. now for the clincher..11 of these wickets are of top order batsmen.. who bats between 1 to 6. The other 3 are Lyon Cummins and Ollie Robinson..No tailender slog gifted wickets.. Edited September 7, 2021 by neel roy express bowling 1 Link to comment

He isn't going to play lot of tests. It will take him 60-70 tests to reach 200 test wickets which he won't play. Link to comment

In T20s he can do damage in the end overs. I will talk strictly about LOIs & I would say as an overall package Hasan Ali is slightly superior to Thakur in LOIs. Link to comment

Looking at the age and the bulge , i do not see him playing tests for more than 3 years from now. 100 test wickets looks like a good milestone . Could last a bit longer in short format . express bowling 1 Link to comment
