Ram Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Absolutely. No attack is complete without a genuine quick and Ishant is our first 90 mph quick. Something to celebrate, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theguyinallblue Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 in the case of Ishant...More than pace..he has many tricks up his sleeves... He is accurate..intelligent....and will learn with more experience... He has already tasted the blood of one NZ player...and there will be many more such instances... He has already floored some batsmen on the pitch with his yorkers... If sreesanth grows some brain cells...and get back to his implacable seam and swing.. If Pathan regains his Midas touch...and we already have zaheer Khan... We will be the force to reckon with in the bowling department... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cricketman Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 LOL! Irfan freaking owns dude. He's like the highest wicket taker of the IPL for a reason, man. I'd like to see you get slapped by your best friend while he says racial slurs to you in front of billions all over the world and see your reaction.

King Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Srinath in his hey days was as quick or even quicker than Ishant. Waqar, Donald and Srinath were express bowlers of the 90s. Unfortunately the speed guns were not as popular those days. The speed is more of a hype these days what with speed guns blazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Ishant he is suberb, his height and pace id awesome. Although to say he is a 90mph bowler is premature as have not seen him bowl that pace regularly. Not sure he needs to get to 90mph + as is effecrtive now. However, every chance he will be 90+ plus on a couple of years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamy Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 ya, our fast bowling is in good hands. There are more in the assembly line like Gony and Dinda. No worries. We have to look at our spin options though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamy Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Ojha - I still haven't bought into him man. He looks lost to me on the field. Piyush certainly exudes the confidence I'd want from an international player, however I'd like him to spin his legbreak a little bit more. He got tonked around pretty bad during the start of IPL. Though, credit to him, he has picked up pretty well after that. Powar has gone off the radar. Ali Murtaza is absolute class, but in ICL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Tendulkar Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Don't take his comments too seriously.He just hates 'em. No he is just not that great a bowler. Should be no way near test squad.

Guest HariSampath Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Mohammed Nissar And Amarsingh were really fast in the 1930s and even in that era had wrecked some top batting lineups with sheer pace. From Cricinfo.... Mohammed Nissar was India's first pace bowler, possible one of the fastest they have ever produced, and one of the best too. A bull of a man, Nissar could swing and cut the ball with verve, but it was his express speed that marked him out from his peers. Of his 25 Test victims, 13 were bowled or leg-before, testimony enough to his sheer pace. Nissar's partnership upfront with Amar Singh was as legendary as it was successful. In India's maiden Test at Lord's in 1932, he plunged the England innings into disarray by knocking over the stumps of Holmes and Sutcliffe, who only ten days earlier had added 555 for the first wicket for Yorkshire, and ended with 5 for 93. On that trip, he grabbed 71 wickets at 18.09 to head the averages. The MCC tour in 1933-34 provided the setting for more heroics as he took another innings bag of five in the inaugural Test in India at the Brabourne Stadium. The only defeat that was inflicted upon the visitors on that tour was also courtesy of Nissar, whose match figures of 9 for 117 helped Vizzy XI to a 14-run victory at Benares. Another compelling demonstration of his hostility came against Jack Ryder's Australians on their tour of India in the winter of 1935. Thirty two wickets in four 'Tests' at 13 runs apiece spoke volumes for the damage he unleashed. On his final tour of England, Nissar departed the Test scene with a devastating spell that yielded four wickets in five overs to send England hurtling from 422 for 3 to 463 for 7. He continued to entertain domestic audiences for a while longer and helped Southern Punjab to the Ranji Trophy final in 1938-39 taking 17 wickets at 11.94, including a tour de force of 6 for 17 against Sind in the semis that sent them packing for 23.
