Ram Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 yes but what does he bring to the table as our spin striker?.i dont think we are going to pick 2 spinners in an odi ever again unless its a rank turner so our main spinner has to be a match winner and ojha so far has not been a match winner-just adequate. And when did a spinner win a match for the last time? Dont temme Bhajji did. If a spinner returns with the figures of 10-0-45-1, he has done his job. If he takes 2 wickets, even better. If he takes 3, brilliant. As far as our spinning goes, Yusuf Pathan has been a bit disappointment in that he never looks like taking a wicket. One of the main reasons for me to support him is in the hope that he dons the role of a regular 5th bowler. But till now, he's looked like a part-timer. Link to comment

graphic23 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Harbhajan Singh has played SO many ODIs, this guy is really new and I haven't seen any nerves since his first ODIs, actually. He's very composed and doesn't get all that worked up if someone hits him for a six. Link to comment

rahulrulezz Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Ojha looks ordinary spinner... doesnt come across as a matchwinner ..Y.Pathan, Sehwag got more turn in 2nd ODi than Ojha..though he can be given one more chance in 3rd ODI... Link to comment
