vvvslaxman Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 A player can afford to be a horrible fielder and horrible batsman only if he is a gun bowler. Prasidh and SIraj are not. India needs swing bowling all rounders. Heck even Bhuvi would have been more threatening. Frustrated 1 Link to comment

Batsmen cost us that series. 2021 it was a mixed bag. This last game I will say tactically we were inept and bowlers dint bowl right lengths till it was too late. Link to comment

This guys has trouble landing ball in same area even twice per over. He is not some teenager who needs some seasoning, look at the SA debutants who are around his age and the control they had in this match, I want to give him one more game. That's it. Suicidal but we have to trust them. Link to comment

Siraj’s useful shelf life is also over.Bumrah cannot handle the load on his own. Siraj I don't understand. He bowled with fire in Australia. Then had a great series vs nz at home. Did well in the first 3 tests in England. Got injured in SA. Hasn't been the same since. Was pathetic in Bangladesh, bad in world cup, bad in wtc final and now bad in first match vs SA. Money gone to his head I guess. His career is over imo. We should discard our bowlers every 5 to 6 years. Just clean them up. Link to comment

Bhuvi coming back into the side may not be good news for U either. He will occupy your spot (assuming u hv a spot). Further, since when did husbands start looking beautiful and wife handsome?

Frustrated Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I m pretty sure the bcci officials must hv visited this thread, and felt offended. Subsequently must hv wanted to teach the OP a lesson. That is the only practical explaination as to why the 'pile of trash' Prasidh has been persisted with. But it didn't work. He continues sucking consistently.....that too on a minefield of a pitch where the ball is swinging bothways like a pendulum. Link to comment

Prasidh is yet to demonstrate the qualities of a Test bowler which is consistency of line and length and wicket taking deliveries as well as some level of energy if not aggression. I am wondering what will happen to him on Indian pitches. Frustrated 1 Link to comment

cricketfan28 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 May be underperformed he can't be this bad. Link to comment
Vk1 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 he is 27 and has just played 13 first class games in last 9 years.. that's 1 first class game per year. Blame the selectors & TM Link to comment
putrevus Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 When you are 28 years old and have just played handful of FC games. You are not healthy enough to be on the field. 23 wickets fell on this wicket and he was not even looking like a getting wicket. Seeing Mukesh bowl , India has missed a big trick in selecting this guy over Mukesh and now Thakur in second test. Link to comment
Adamant Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Its very early to declare him as trash, needs more time. I am quite surprised that he isn’t able to deliver in SA which according to me should be his favourite place to bowl based on his skillset and height. Too early to dismiss him. Link to comment

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Mukesh is a good pick for SEN conditions, no doubt about it. Should only play when there’s something on offer from the pitch or conditions Thakur has won us more matches in SENA than Zaheer Khan, Javagal Srinath, Ravi Ashwin and took a 7 fer last time he visited SA. Pujara, Rahane are dropped Prasidh is a new guy, he is the only young pacer who was anywhere close to debuting in test cricket, Kartik Tyagi is raw Link to comment

Yes he had insane numbers in a tour and ranji but what stopped him from performing here in helpful wickets? Mukesh also new and he picked wickets. So? Maybe nervous but that's not a good enough excuse. He should show some talent and promise. Selectors have every right to drop him. Link to comment
