Gambhir and Agarkar have introduced 3 accurate and quick or sharp pacers.

 

Mayank .. Express .. 6'2" or 6'1" tall .. 22 yrs

 

Harshit .. Fast .. 6'3" tall .. 22 yrs.

 

Akashdeep .. Fast-medium .. 6'1" or 6'0" tall .. 27 yrs.

 

We need an accurate, hit the deck,  6'5"+ pacer who is atleat fast-medium. 

 

To add to .... 

 

Bumrah .. Fast .. 5'11" .. 30 yrs

Shami .. Fast-medium .. 5'9" .. 34 yrs

Siraj .. Fast-medium .. 6'0" .. 30 yrs

Arshdeep .. Medium-fast .. 6'3" .. 25 yrs.

 

If Umran Malik can become accurate like IPL 2022 then he can be a good backup express pacer 

 

Umran .. Express .. 5'9" .. 24 yrs 

 

-----

 

● Express .. Mayank, Umran 

● Fast .. Bumrah, Harshit

● Tall .. Harshit, Arshdeep, Mayank

● Bouncy .. Harshit, Mayank 

● Seam bowler .. Bumrah, Shami, Akash,  Mayank, Harshit

● Swing bowler .. Bumrah, Arshdeep, Siraj

● Skiddy .. Shami, Akash, Umran

● Leff arm .. Arshdeep 

 

 

All bases covered if we get the 6'5"+ bouncy pacer and bring in Umran too.

Tyagi has to play domestic cricket or the IPL to get back into contention.

 

This list was not my wishlist entirely but consist mainly of pacers who are currently selected for India with only 2 pacers who have either got fast bowling contract or atleast is a net bowler currently.

For red ball cricket Himanshu should also be fast-tracked.
He is tall, bowls heavy ball at 135-140, can bowl long spells. Accuracy can be a question but is just 21 years old, so after this season he will improve even further.

6'1

[rkt.india]

We wouldn't even have many 6'5 or more people in India let alone fast bowlers who bowl at least fast medium 135-142 range consistently. We do have some young tall bowlers but they don't have the pace. Prince Badiani and Divyanshu Singh from Mumbai, both 6'6. Divij Mehra 6'5 from Delhi who bowls 120-125. Dhanush Gowda 6'5 from Karnataka. Nishant Saranu as well. There is one Samant Jakhar from Haryana. Rahul Nain from delhi.

% of 6'5"+ people maybe low in India but since we are heavily populated, our total number of such people may not be too low. The younger generation have quite a few really tall fellas.

Improving access to nutrition should further help generating wider pool of tall bowlers and batsmen too. Having Taller batsmen will immensely help our T20/ODI team.

It's not just about numbers. Those numbers have to be playing cricket and then ones who are playing, not all of them would be fast bowlers, and then who become fast bowlers should be able to hit 140kph. Only one such bowler who does that currently is Gurnoor. None else and I have followed Indian fast bowlers religiously from u16 itself. 

 

It's a rare commodity in indian cricket. We have had more bowlers hitting 150 kph than bowlers who are 6'5 and hitting 140+ speeds. Ishant did that in the past. Ishant debuted in 2008 and in 16 years how many indian 6'5 bowlers bowled 140+ kph!

 

So as much as we think Mayank is a rare commodity, or Umran or Kartik, Gurnoor Singh Brar too is as much a rare commodity if not more.
