Temujin Khaghan Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 after his decent bowling display in the challenger trophy. he wasnt bowling to worldclass oppositions, but still he did well. Most wickets Player Mat Overs Mdns Runs Wkts BBI Ave Econ SR 4 5 Harbhajan Singh 3 25.4 0 103 8 3/23 12.87 4.01 19.2 0 0 (India Blue) MM Patel 3 27.3 5 136 8 4/21 17.00 4.94 20.6 1 0 (India Red) I Sharma 3 23.1 1 123 6 4/56 20.50 5.30 23.1 1 0 (India Red) AB Dinda 3 21.0 0 128 6 3/52 21.33 6.09 21.0 0 0 (India Blue) S Tyagi 3 20.0 1 90 5 3/20 18.00 4.50 24.0 0 0 (India Red) sreesanth did not take any wickets in both the matches he played. that doesnt mean anything really... but he could have done better. so do u think if we are to play two pacers (mishra and bhajji as spinners) for the odi tourney versus oz... then he ought to be the one with nehra?
Sachinism Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Wouldn't really mind if he does get picked ahead of Sreesanth. IMO he's been bowling well for a while.
vvvslaxman Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 I think more than the wickets the way Sree bowled was really top class. He found the edge of Vijay only to Ojha spill it down. Also they decided to see him off. His outswingers were too good for some of their players. Having said that Munaf has increased his pace a tad bit. He has better yorker than some of the others.

zubinpepsi Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Nehra, Tyagi, Munaf and Sreesanth and maybe Ishant should b used in the 7 matches..
Sachinism Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 I didn't catch much of Tyagi's bowling, how was he? Can he hold his own against international batsmen?
Temujin Khaghan Posted October 12, 2009 Author Posted October 12, 2009 I didn't catch much of Tyagi's bowling, how was he? Can he hold his own against international batsmen? his profile in cricinfo reads right arm medium. i didnt see him.
Lord Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 I would have Munaf,Irfan n Nehra as our 3 pacers with PK as backup
saneindian Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Munaf: Bowled with control, good line length, was mostly bowling at 78-79 mph..at times cranked it up to 83-84 without much effort Sreesanth: Ran in hard, tried to bowl fast, was bowling consistently at 82-83 mph and occasional spurt of 85-86 mph..bowled with fire in the final with excellent control and good swing. Bowling wise no issues but attitude remains a trouble area. Tyagi: Very impressive, fastest bowler in the tournament..one of his delivery touched 88.7mph..was bowling at an avg of 84-84 moh, at time lacked control but wasnt holding anything back and giving it his all. His opening spell in the final was absolutely amazing, got really good seam off the track Dinda: Again fully committed, gave it his all, ran in hard and touched 85-86mph easily. Avergae of 83-84 mph, didnt have the luck as a few catches were dropped off him and some went just past the slips. Bhajji: Good to see him try to pick wickets by flighting the ball and attacking the stumps than bowling on the pads. Was bowling with greater control and bowling patiently. Hope he can reprouce some of this form against the aussies.
King Tendulkar Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Ishant should be dropped(hopefully recalled in a year) and so should Nehra. With Nehra I am fully aware people love him but he is awful and will be exposed, his all round game is also a crime against humanity. Sree is a must. I like Munaf as a bowler but his all round game is on par with Nehra. Tyagi is interesting, if he has wheels could be waht we need. I rate RP Singh despite his recent poor record. I believe he will come good
SachDan Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Sree was plain unlucky not to have picked up any wickets. Among all the pacers in CT, batsmen had the utmost respect for Sree. They didn't took much chances of his bowling and that helped Munaf to get some wickets. Time for one of those Sidhuisms.. "statistics are like miniskirts. What they reveal is tantalizing but what they hide is crucial".
Jabu Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 7 match series with Aus. Should give chance to Tyagi,Munaf and sreeshant..

Wow, never seen Tyagi bowl but from what I read here he seems very impressive. 84mph average is awesome. we must take him now. :yay: thanks for the insight on all the bowlers mate ...cheerios :hatsoff:
Master Blaster Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 For some reasons I find Munaf's attitude more annoying than SS, and that's saying something. Dude seems very lazy and will start throwing garbage when he gets hit for a boundary or 2.

Dude seems very lazy and will start throwing garbage when he gets hit for a boundary or 2.[/quote'] Not only that. If you compare Munaf at his best with Sreesanth at his best, you would find Sreesanth is a class above Munaf I don't even know what Munaf's best is. So far he is barely above average. Sreesanth on his day can be world class. 90% of his Test wickets are top order batsmen.
