‘His adaptability to all formats is just crazy’ – Allan Donald explains why Jasprit Bumrah stands above the rest

Sadly he may go Kapil's way. All the oppositions had to do was seeing off Kapil and targeting others.  With utter lack of support from other end he may see less returns. Although he originally became famous for yorkers like Malinga, he deviated away from that gradually and became more a complete bowler. Not just a guy who alternates between fast yorker/slow yorker. Shami has done a fabulous job in complementing Bumrah in Tests. Siraj did in patches. Ishant also did in patches. But in one dayers he needs a better partner. Would love to see a left arm seamer partnering.

I hope India rests Bumrah for these useless ODIs & T20s.

I would like Khaleel to be back for ODIs to partner Bumrah.

These matches are where he shines the most. In the most important matches he goes missing or is just about average.

Booms Cummins are both **** odi bowlers now at wicket taking. Even starc

 

Believe it or not I posted the actual records vs big 4 sides including Pakistan for all bowlers. Guess who was number 1 vs top sides? Shami. Shami is underrated. 

 

But where bumrah beats others is economy. Bumrah is good if we need to defend big totals on pattas. 

Shami is the best at wicket taking. 

 

Shami rabada and then hazelwood have the best records vs big 4. 

 

If shami had opportunity to play on bouncy flat wickets of s.a and Australia his record would be even more impressive. 

 

Too bad he is old now. He has been playing since 2013. 8 years now...only 2 more years left. Sad times for us.

Apart from NZ nobody has scored much of him. They consciously see him off.  His IPL reputation is also a reason. Also he is not primarily a ODI bowler. He is also a Test bowler. So his malingasque type yorkers  lost its accuracy somewhat. Actually in Tests he bowls better yorkers than in ODIs.

Ya booms is the perfect test and t20 bowler. He is awful in odi. Only good at containing in odi.

 

I think we should drop him from odi personally or use him as first change. Use him in middle. Open with prasidh and siraj. 

Booms can't swing white ball. He can be deadly in the middle.

 

Also I truly believe booms can be deadly as first change rather than opening in tests. We need proper swing bowlers with bouncer ability to open. Siraj and shami or prasidh again fit that purpose. 

 

Booms can be deadly as first change. Look at australia. Cummins is first change. Hazlewood and starc open mostly. Cummins does operate as an opener too but not always the case.

If India has to defend like 15 runs in 2 overs. Bumrah will be the only go to bowler we have. So he does have a role. His tight bowling will get us wickets from other end.  Also he is still one of the best yorker exponent in the side despite drop in accuracy. Probably he can avoid taking part in the bilaterals. He doesn't go full throttle which is understandable.  Even in the IPL this season he wasn't at his very best. He has to manage his workload given the amount of bowling he does.  Cummins also has excessive workload. So he also takes it easy.

Praise indian players get IPL contract. All are pretending like bumrah is cut above all the bowlers but seeing the performances  in crunch moments he has been ordinary. In limited overs cricket he is below average not providing initial breakthroughs. Indian cricket is on the downhill because of poor selections and not grooming/ induction of fast bowlers in the team at the right time.

Pakistan is not a big 4 side in ODIs. That would be Ind, NZ, Eng, and Aus.

Yes but for india they would be in big 4. You get it? Doesn't matter but yes shami is the best bowler vs big 4.

doubtful if pak merits even no. 5, but perhaps they can added because of the extra pressure in ind-pak matches. shami is old, won't be playing ODIs for much longer (if at all)
