If there is swing on offer trundlers are more effective than out and out quicks.  If you look at West indian bowling the trundling holder was the one who won the series for them. Faster bowlers travelled. Hazlewood won the series against Srilanka. Cummins and Starc were less effective.

In the last 5 years T20 performance by Fast bowlers in Australia. Natrajan seems to be the best overseas bowler

 

[prudent_kreeda]

The reason being there is so much training & range hitting being with bowling machines that pace does not matter unless you upset  batters's timing with deviation or pace change or bounce . So when ball deviates in swinging conditions most of the guys do not survive .

These 2 or 3 match stats don't tell whole story & Natarajan hasn't recovered from injury he got year ago so how can we know he is good to go.

Not saying he should be selected. Just appreciating. He has a great yorker.

True that. Keep one or 2 premium pacers and have 2 trundlers who can vat. Problem solved.

Hazlewood is a trundler now!

Yes. We only need one or 2 spinners. Ok then drop venky for axar or something. 

Axar and bishnoi is good. 

 

In Bishnoi I see a real talent. Leggie wristie is always going to be dangerous. Very hard to play them. Wristies who are quality will be good in any format.

You need atleast 2 spin options in T20s anywhere. 

 

Axar really? Can he bat at no 6. No way. You need a batting AR like Jadeja or Sundar. The rest of your team is perfect.

Jadeja is a bowling AR. Sundar not a good enough T20 bat. Sundar will be a brilliant test player. T20, not so sure as a batsman.

Yes I meant he can replace venky and operate at 7 or 8. Or sundar yes. Any player. Remember we will be playing in Australia. Variable pace is key. 

 

Need good yorkers, bouncers, slow ball and test length ball type variations. For paces I.e. 

 

Wristie will be good in any format.

That's what we said about jadeja too. He helped us win in 2013. Dude has been quality In all formats. 

 

Give sundar time, he will do well in odi as well. Not sure about t20 as a pure batsman but he will be useful in australia with the ball. His height is a huge factor.

Midgets like Boobie/Chahar/Patel trundling at 125 being compared to Hazlewood who's 6'5'' and operates at 135 is a hell of a take.

 

And what is Starc if not predominantly a swing bowler?

Midgets or not. If bhuvi upped his pace to 135- 138 he can be dangerous with his swing. 

Chahar too. Midget or not it won't matter. 135-140 is the pace everyone should be targeting in all formats on average. Up the pace when ball flattens from 140 - 145 plus if needed. 

 

135-140 pace on average is quality regardless whether you are short, faint,tall, giant or average. 

 

Taller bowlers on bouncy tracks can get away with 130 pace but shorter ones need to maintain 135 ish. That's specifically on bouncy wickets. On slow and low bounce it won't matter. If anything it benefits shorter guys who can bowl fuller on slow and low pitches. Ball will sit up nicely if you have good bounce on low bouncy wickets.

Yes,Hazelwood can bowl fast when he wants to he can bowl in 140s
