vvvslaxman Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 This is a great achievement defending any score against Windies under lights. It is very hard with wet ball. If India pulls it off today it is even more creditable as India is clearly missing a spinner today. Link to comment

express bowling Posted March 13, 2022 Author Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) Very happy to see Bumrah using bounce as a weapon again. .. Wicket taking bouncers and rising short balls. .. Bouncers and rising short balls as set up balls to push batters on the back foot for the upcoming fuller balls to be more effective. .. Hostile bouncers and rising short balls to soften batters up Bumrah has done everything in the 2 tests in this series. This is the way to go ... and lots of wickets as a result.

Why dint he try bouncers as much in s Africa test 3? I guess injuries hampered us with siraj out. Also useless batting that couldn't last 50 overs gave no rest to our bowlers. Umesh was rubbish. Missed siraj for third test badly. Vijy 1 Link to comment

In SA, the back of a length rising balls could have been very effective ( because the 2nd and 3rd test pitches had both bounce as well as variable bounce ) .... and Bumrah is usually a master of this ball.

Evidence is the number of byes we were conceding when he tried it. That short ball is not the same on all pitches and conditions. express bowling and Vijy 2 Link to comment

Damn looking back would have been better if we bowled back of length and just maintained outside off. Trap them eventually. Our batsmen were useless. I feel sorry for our atg bowlers who have to play with those filthy POSs. Thankfully some new gems in batting are emerging. Link to comment

ITs up to coaches to maximise the use of their full potential. Vijy 1 Link to comment
express bowling Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 Wickets not falling and we are missing a bounce bowler again. There has to be a different type of challenge to break the monotony of our skiddy pacers. Prasidh needs to come in. nevada and Mosher 2 Link to comment
putrevus Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Shami with his height never had capability to generate bounce from length but Shami has a great bouncer which he needs to use more. Link to comment
DeepSpace Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Prasid needs to be brought in. We need a bounce/pace bowler. express bowling 1 Link to comment
DeepSpace Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 But oh the progress we have made. In the 70s we had worse than trundlers Solkar, Abdi Ali, etc. Then in the 80s, there was Kapil Dev and few support characters and trundlers like Binny & Chetan Sharma! Link to comment
Mosher Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 We are talking about Prasidh in tests and thought he was with the test squad but he is out there in Northampton playing practice T20 match. nevada and express bowling 2 Link to comment
