gakgupta Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Current Pak team looks way better and balanced than Indian team and frontrunners to win this World Cup.. It's a Shame that Indian team couldn't identify one pace bowler while Pak has 3 world class pace bowlers... They keep sticking to sharduls chahars and not giving chances to genuine pace bowlers.... putrevus and raki05 1 1 Link to comment

Norman Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Lol... So Bumrah and Siraj aren't world class for you? Their fast bowlers had the best day out against us and we still managed to get to 267 which we probably would have defended on that wicket. We are yet to see how their average batting line-up will fare against a decent bowling attack under pressure. This balance thing is just pure non sense...their Shadabs and Faheems add as much balance as our sharduls and Jadejas. Sgattick10, nevada, Mosher and 3 others 6 Link to comment

At least in limited overs cricket. In Test Cricket India is leagues ahead. Overall their LOI side is very strong in Asian conditions. Indian side is in need of fresh faces in batting unit... raki05 1 Link to comment

Siraj & Bumrah are world class. Kuldeep is miles better than any spinner they have. It's our joke of batting which makes them look better that what they're in reality. The moment they will face England or Australia...all their world class quicks will be punctured to the ground by likes of Head, Marsh, Butler & Bairstow. express bowling, Frustrated, Lord and 3 others 6 Link to comment

Just the names doesn't make a good team.. Siraj is good but cannot call him world class Link to comment
Prabhdeep Singh Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Contrary to perception here, if India plays to potential India will win. All wickets will not have movement, if it is flat I think it is game over of Pakistan. India needs to go after Pakistan bowlers from ball 1 they will panic, mentally they are not the sharpest. express bowling 1 Link to comment
cricketfan28 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Their pace attack is looking dangerous, Gill should step up and show why he is the future. nevada 1 Link to comment

That's a whole another discussion. But to say we do not have a single world class pace bowler is just plain stupid to say the least. Bumrah and Siraj are just good as anyone in Asia. Shami even today can produce some unplayable spells. It's okay to be subjective but no point in completely going over the board. express bowling and raki05 2 Link to comment

He pretty much looked close to his best in Ireland in terms of speed and rhythm. If Siraj with bowling average of 20 isn't world class, them so aren't Naseem or Rauf lol.

MediumPacer Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 India has generally not been known for pacers,pak on the other hand has always had them.But now our batsmen can get stuck against spin. Link to comment

Lord Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Bumrah,Siraj,Shami is as good attack as any. Problem is we are playing Thakur for fake batting depth. His batting has gone down. raki05, singhvivek141, adi B and 1 other 4 Link to comment

India actually overcame this philosophy between 2016-2021 atleast in Tests..our bowlers ruled the longer format courtesy of their skillset. But poor selections in white ball never helped us transition the same into ODI & T20's, we also didn't prepare any bench strength and kept on playing the same bowlers despite of the fact that they're now ageing and slowing down (ex Shami & Umesh).

Siraj is our best ODI pacer rn & maybe second only to Shaheen in the World rn. Hazelwood is other consistent gun ODI bowler in last 2 years... And is rightfully ranked no 1 I have always been critical of Bumrah in this format.. ODIs is indeed his weakest format. Hopefully he turns it around this Asia Cup & WC. Shami is a hit or miss... We don't know which Shami will turn up on the day. And he is old gun now. It is a good attack but a tier below Aus Pak consistently. We need another Siraj esque wicket taker to wreck havoc in PP. Sad to see Tyagi & Kuldeep Sen were not developed. raki05 1 Link to comment

KLR after the shitshow of playing out maidens in wt20 should have been barred from wearing India jersey even at his home, let alone playing for national team, the guy is national embarrassment. It is beyond stupidity to play him and beyond timepass to watch these chewtiyas playing it against arch rivals. A player unavailable for almost 8-10 months playing over someone who has scored 4 consecutive half centuries is abysmal, and if we as fans are going to watch it, it is shame on our intellect. Fcuk this Asia Cup and WC. Gollum, rollingstoned, Lord and 7 others 5 2 3 Link to comment
