Strangering Posted November 23, 2024 Posted November 23, 2024 If he were fitter, he would be 5kmph faster. Just enough to be lethal.

That's why you see likes of Avesh selected in bilateral series while Harshit had to wait ages to make his debut. Edited November 24, 2024 by Ultimate_Game express bowling 1
vvvslaxman Posted November 23, 2024 Posted November 23, 2024 He has a strong action. That release is forceful . Unlike some guys who just put the ball he bangs it. bouncers, Vicks57, BacktoCricaddict and 3 others 6
putrevus Posted November 25, 2024 Posted November 25, 2024 He still can increase his pace if he works on his conditioning. The ball that got Head was just awesome.If he can keep the ball there to lefties , he will be handful anywhere.He can use his short pitch deliveries as a weapon also. He has to learn to be patient, just concentrate on basics not become another Siraj who wants wicket every delivery. express bowling and BacktoCricaddict 2

Adamant Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 Who called him allrounder, lol. He has potential but that is it, needs more time.

tweaker Posted June 19, 2025 Author Posted June 19, 2025 Harshit Rana added to Indian squad as a cover for some bowlers having niggles. express bowling, BacktoCricaddict and vishalvirsingh 3
vvvslaxman Posted October 4, 2025 Posted October 4, 2025 Man.. how the heck he got to this position? I am okay with him being in Test plans. How is he regular in T20 and ODI? Why is Prasidh sidelined from T20? tweaker 1

Besides he was the highest wicket taker in VH last season. Rana went for 6.20, 6.88, 7.57 against England in 3 games.

Need4Speed Posted October 4, 2025 Posted October 4, 2025 If BCCI is serious..they need to do whatever they can to turn Harshit and Gurnoor into a polished product..These guys have potential to pick up wickets with heat.. need to get them develop consistency.. better than investing in trundlers who will be mediocre or just good enough..we need bowlers who can dominate..and not just good enough.. bouncers, express bowling, singhvivek141 and 3 others 1 1 4

Arshdeep may have a WT20 to his name. But he has played 2 Wt20's to his name. Harshit has just made it to the team and barely played handful of games. Did well vs Eng in ODIs and in CT (better than Shami) In Australia even Haris Rauf is King so Pace works pretty well there. Need to groom Harshit for WC in SA too. Even Prasidh is a positive selection. raki05, tapandrun and express bowling 1 2
vishalvirsingh Posted October 4, 2025 Posted October 4, 2025 latest in a t20 he bowled 148.8k...he is fast when ever he wishes. i saw some of his bouncers in one t20 and in Australia that nearly got the head of the batsmen- serious pacy bouncers. one of his bouncers hit the bangla batters head too...a little more faster impact and the batsmen would have retired hurt, instead the batsmen got wide awake and ultra careful. express bowling 1

He looks like a cannon fodder from what i have seen. He is hyped purely because of his 145k which is why Haris Rauf was also hyped for. He was going at 10 an over this IPL. Even in the India A vs Pakistan A he was thrashed around.
