Harshal Patel: how the hell does he manage to pick up wickets every time?

I hope he becomes the medium pace version of sunil narine. Narine even after bowling thousands of overs and after being analysed till death is still difficult to predict even after modifying his actions. Some bowlers have this knack like Harshal does. Fannie de villiers was kind of same.

I hear he opens the batting for his state in the limited overs format?

Did it quite regularly in T20 in SMT, but not in VHT (List A) as far as I recall

One thing is clear. Neither him nor Shardul are just lucky to keep getting wickets. That being said, luck is the answer to your question. He will run out of luck someday and even his good balls will be hit. Just that part of your career when everything you touch turns gold.

 

It's getting worse every match for him. I almost forgot he used to be good.

Absolutely hopeless long hop pie chucker.  can't believe someone like this can play for India in any format.

Anyone remembers Sohail Tanvir ? He used to bowl with very unorthodox action had very high arm speed but pace was barely mostly 125-135. Was very difficult to hit most of the time.

Harshal seems to be in same mould with lesser accuracy and variations.

Won;'t take today's performance seriously. After 9-5 he wasn't gonna get him for 50 runs. His job was to take 2-3 wickets and get them all out

Ghanta Sohail Tanveer, Tanveer had a terrific Yorker and a very uncanny action and was also very accurate. Harshal is all over the place with his variations, bowls a full toss every now and then, and will be a cannon fodder on those Australian pitches.
