zubinpepsi Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 has early success gone to his head??? he seems to be very ordinary, inconsistent.... discuss..
DomainK Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Dont judge him bases on his IPL performance. T20 can make best of the bowlers ordinary.
zubinpepsi Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 no .. well not from this performance.... he dint do anything spl in NZ...apart frm tht ponting over and aus-home series and tht inning against pak at home.. he doesnt have anything to show off.. his average stands testimony for that... he can be a very good bowler.. but he seems to b losing it..
zubinpepsi Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 I hope he is not played in the T20WC... even the slow trundler like balaji seems much much better than him...
Jasoos Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I agree. He hardly picks up any wickets. I think a season or two of ranji trophy should help him.
Guest gaurav_indian Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 has early success gone to his head??? he seems to be very ordinary, inconsistent.... discuss.. I agree.He didnt do anything special in NZ also where bowlers were getting help from the pitches. He is becoming arrogant and inconsistent match by match.May be he deserves a kick just like Zaheer got few years ago.
vvvslaxman Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 He is 20 years old. He still has a long way to go. he is bowling too short and too wide which is a crime in T20. He doesn't bowl enough full deliveries. He is at his best when he bowls on a good length. But he rarely does.

zubinpepsi Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 I dont care for KKR.. but hes indias main bowler and im sad tht India is takin him for the T20WC.. I wonder on what basis... we need T20 specialist bowlers..
rahulrulezz Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 He is a great Test bowler.... He just needs to bring his pace back up... Dont know who told him to decrease his pace....

flamy Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Ishant is keeping Laxmipathy Balaji out. When will Balaji get a chance to prove himself????? :hitler:
Desi Cartman Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Ishant is keeping Laxmipathy Balaji out. When will Balaji get a chance to prove himself????? :hitler: the same game badri .. I mean Subramaniam Badrinath gets a chance :winky:
cowboysfan Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I consider ishant as a good line and length bowler similar to Steyn,kallis and others and in T20s batsmen can pretty much guess whtas coming .Ishant has to learn new variations if he has to survive in t20s and ODIs.there will come a point in the near future where his wicket taking abilities will be offset by his RR.I also think he has improved a bit from IPL1 but he still hasnt lost the annoying habit of bowling some really bad balls.

Online Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I agree - He needs a kick up his backside We are better off with an extra batsman instead of Ishant
Guest gaurav_indian Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 well he has played lik 11 matches so far.. and no improvement to show off still.. and his bowling in the test/odi is also fading , if u look at the last series... his good match/series was oz at home and thts abt it.. You are right.He needs a kick.Another Sharma is waiting.
vvvslaxman Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 First and foremost thing for a bowler in shorter version is control. You should be able to pitch the ball where you want. I don't think Ishant possess that. In Tests you can get away with wayward deliveries. In shorter formats you can't. Why do you think bracken is a top ODI bowler not a Test bowler. Because he possess great control.
