Texan Posted January 27, 2023 Author Share Posted January 27, 2023 2 hours ago, vvvslaxman said: He has skills. But how to use them effectively, is something he has to learn. Right now he has serious execution problems. I beg to differ, but I don't think he has the skills. If it was Umran Mallik, I would say that he does have the "skills" but needs execution. With Arshdeep, the only ball in his repertoire is the ball that floats and full. He doesn't really hit the deck or bowl a good short ball or a stinging yorker (like say Natarajan did when he was in form). Also, the penchant for no balls is a nuisance. Yes, every bowler occasionally bowls no balls, but with Arshdeep, it is a habit. It is hard to understand why because he isn't even trying to bowl express pace. cowboysfan and cricspirit 2 Link to comment
cricspirit Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Not sure overrated or not as I do not see too many people going crazy about him. But, I am glad he is only playing T20I at this point and not selected for ODI. He is average to above average IMO and don't see him going on to achieve big. Link to comment

He can swing both ways. Even today after the pummelling in the first balls landed better. Due to his natural height he gets bounce. But due to his lack of batting skills he has to be far more reliable. IPL will give an idea. Lord 1 Link to comment
Throwaib_Chuckter Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Good: Potency in conditions where the new ball swings. When a track has some pace and bounce to support his surprise bouncer.Not so good/Needs work: Tendency to overstep regularly Reverse swing Fielding I wouldn't say overrated though, if anything Arshdeep has been consistently inconsistent.

jf1gp_1 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Umran went for runs in the only over he bowled. Arshdeep is more visible cause he bowled final over. Give the guy a fair run, let him gain experience. sorak and Lord 1 1 Link to comment
express bowling Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 For the last 45 years, the Indian cricket fraternity have had a strong preference for floaty pacers who look good when the new ball swings for a few overs and look very innocuous when the swing dies down.( that is most of the time ) Arshdeep is the latest addition to this brigade. None of these pacers had become top international pacers. We need to promote multi-dimensional pacers like Bumrah, Shami and Siraj ... and not floaty one dimensional pacers. zen, rollingstoned, Norman and 6 others 2 4 3 Link to comment
Number Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) He was never rated as some sort of exceptional talent. A utility bowler in T20s who can swing the first 2 overs and bowl last 2 overs relatively cheaply. At this age even that is a good skillset for t20s. He needs to improve consistency and needs to get over this no ball problem. I don't think even an odd no ball is a problem but you need to be able to put it behind yourself and bowl rest of the overs better. Calls by Bakwaskar to have him in tests are lolworthy.

deepdynamo Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Even though Arshdeep single handily lost two games, he is still better than Mavi, Avesh, Harshal and Umran. So, we must persist with him and let him play T20 and get further experience. He can be handy in WI conditions in next T20 WC, Lord 1 Link to comment

An economy of 11.5 after 7 games. I am a fan of pace and he needs to be backed just like Pakistan has done with Haris Rauf. Rauf started similar to Umran and was super expensive but Pakistan didn't give up. Link to comment

Siraj, even before he debuted for India, was a multi-dimensionsl bowler. He could hit the deck hard in the good length area and get bounce and seam movement when the ball stopped swinging after a few overs. He could bowl stump directed skiddy quick deliveries too at will.

Khaleel is a good option but seems poor in death. Mohsin is best but seems injured all the time. He can also bat Link to comment
