Abhishek is a batting allrounder, Tilak & Venky are borderline...Jaiswal is a part timer coz he has stopped bowling... Rana, Hangargerkar, Yudhvir & Gurnoor all are proper bowlers who can bat & hit big sixes...Rahul Chahar has also improved his batting a lot now..he is also a borderline bowling allrounder. It's important that they keep on practicing on their skills though, Agarkar when arrived in the scene was a much capable batter than when he retired. express bowling, rollingstoned and MediumPacer 3 Link to comment

The all rounder if found can then fit in. IMO...those have skills shouldn't stop working on it. If the burden is too much then we can stop trying to find out all format players and instead use them for one or two formats at max. Brett Lee & Mitch Johnson bowled fast at 145k, but never let their batting skill drop down. Key here is the rotation, no point having the 300, 400 or 500 wicket taking bowlers if we can't dominate the game. Link to comment

Pitches have to change .Lower order batting is needed in those conditions, our conditions are different. singhvivek141 1 Link to comment
G_B_ Posted November 26, 2023 Author Share Posted November 26, 2023 See we need bowlers at 8 9 10 to be able to strike it big and average 10 to 15 with the bat This is what the likes of starc and Cummins do. High end bowlers who can hold a bat. In the wc we had shami bumrah and kuldeep who were not better batters than starc and Cummins. Its upto the coaching stff to bring the 8 9 10 to a levels were they can chip in with 10 to 15 runs on a regular basis when called on We need somebody like travis head who can bowl 2 to 6 overs depending on the deck. In total there need to be 6 to 7 joeling options. Frustrated and tapandrun 2 Link to comment
G_B_ Posted November 26, 2023 Author Share Posted November 26, 2023 With the t20 wc coming up what we need A number 8-9 who is a frontline bowler who can strike it big atleast a few times against good death over bowlers. A batsman who can bowl 2 overs for under 16 runs in most conditions. Even pakistan have Shaheen shah afridi in t20 who can amoke it. Arshdeep mukesh etc simply cant do that. tapandrun 1 Link to comment

Frustrated Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Arshdeep is there to fulfill the wides quota. Trundler Boobie used to bowl 3-4 wides per over at the death. In his absence, Arshdeep has been entrusted with that duty. (Boobie was atleast a better fielder than Arshdeep). Arshdeep should be picked only if he improves his other skills like fielding and batting (like starc, cummins, shaheen do) express bowling and singhvivek141 2 Link to comment

Nikhil_cric Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Arshdeep bowls 3 balls at 140 kph and then bowls a full, wide outswinger at 127 kph that Smith lofts through the on side. Indian LOI seamers are all sprayguns . Simply can't hold that shorter than 6m length or keep it within 6th stump . Link to comment

tapandrun Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Not just him, its general observation with Sub 140 kmph bowlers, they come to Intnls. tries to bowl bit faster than their natural pace. They may look good in few seasons and once they get injured or lose intensity they start looking like club level. In T20s donot mind what speeds the bowler is bowling till they have vast variations and able to hit few 6/4 down the order. IPL every season comes up with some weird stat - Most yorker, least boundary in such to such overs without factoring in other components, and then these kind of players make it to the intnl team. If there is a specialist t20 bowler they must be able to bat or have impact like Malinga Link to comment

Yeah. It was a problem with Bhuvaneshwar as well. Would go flat out for 90 mph when his body could not sustain that. They need to find the speed range for their stock deliveries which they can bowl sustainably and focus on accuracy . It's why I appreciate Mukesh Kumar a lot. Seems to know what speeds he can operate at and sticks to landing the ball consistently at those speeds. Link to comment
