King Tendulkar Posted March 13, 2011 Author Posted March 13, 2011 A 6.3 economy rate for goofy over last 2 years in India. Horrendous. His selection is baffling, proven failure
Sachin=GOD Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 His economy rate is shocking. And in India his econmoy rate gets even worse. He leaks at 6 plus runs an over consisitently and sometimes a lot more. How he is tolerated is a joke. Now ZK is giving his all and fired up (as rightly was saving himself for tests over last 2 years) he puts in perspective rubbish Nehra! Agreed. but if you look at economy rates then there would be very few Indian bowlers who would be good enough to play for the team - people like Ishant, Sreesanth go for over 6 or 7 rpo and even economical bowlers like Zak and Pravin Kumar and Munaf go for over 5 rpo so why is only Nehra the one to be blamed for having high economy rate :dontknow:
King Tendulkar Posted March 13, 2011 Author Posted March 13, 2011 Munaf, Kumar and ZK are in early 5s for economy while Nehra is 6.3. Thats a big differenc and shows nehras patheticness. How other were not given a run and a chance to improve and cement a place is beyoond me. Thats why we are left with mess we are in with buffet Nehra still in team and no other options, when last 2 years could have been used to groom and develop a suitable bowler. My words should have been heeded ages ago and identified that Nehra was clearly hopeless and not good enough and so axed!
Ravi. Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Nehra shouldbe dropped after the worldcup. He is terrible now a days.

It also tells us about our bowling benchstrength when Nehra was selected in 2009 but unfortunately Irfan RP Ishant lost their way

I Fell sorry ,we have never learned from our failures in recent icc tournaments,we have to select our best and fastest bowlers in the tournament,Nehra cannot field,Bat,has a shocking attitude and less said about his bowling the better.

CG Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 But you wanted Sree in the team who is a bigger leaker than goofy. :winky: sreesanth is a better bowler than nehra anyday,he can take wickets even if goes for runs,if you compare last 10 games sreesanth is better than nehra and also is good fielder.
IKnowU Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 But you wanted Sree in the team who is a bigger leaker than goofy. :winky: Sreesanth is phassst :proud:
pinkfreud Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Why is Nehra being blamed here? It's not his fault that our so called 'shrewd' captain brought him in to play in the death over. Even Morne Morkel was more expensive than him! If India had won the match, you wouldn't be calling out Nehra, would you? We lost because of Dhoni's captaincy as much as our batting collapse. He's made too many questionable decisions in this tournament. Who in his right mind would send Pathan in to play after our top order's wickets fell?
yoda Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 sreesanth is a better bowler than nehra anyday' date='he can take wickets even if goes for runs,if you compare last 10 games sreesanth is better than nehra and also is good fielder.[/quote'] I don't think there is much to pick between the two. One leaks runs throughout the game and the other leaks runs just when you need containment. Yes Sree can get you wickets, but he is a career 6+ RPO bowler.
dnmaru Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Hey Guys ... Don't blame bowlers .... I am not trying to defend Nehra but only batsmen to be blamed for the defeat - 267/1 and 296 all out ... come on ... give at least 350 to defend on a pitch like Nagpur....
sudheer kumar Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 It also tells us about our bowling benchstrength when Nehra was selected in 2009 but unfortunately Irfan RP Ishant lost their way yes absolutely u r right. irfan and RP were never given a chance atleast. some people will say that they didn't performing well in domestic cricket. If RP is in place of Nehra, He must try and will bowl yorkers. Nehra don't have commitment towards the game. He know only thing that run fast as an horse and delivers ball where ever it pitches. That is not good to see from a bowler. I never seen nehra when he bowls two or three consecutive yorkers. Nehra's performance is unpredictable. And really Nehra is awful and should not be any where near Indian team. It was proven once........ might possibility of chances in further games.

Both have a tendency to go for runs but still Sree's economy rate is worse than Nehra and Nehra has picked up more wickets than Sree in the last few months while Sree causes further headache for both his team and the opposition.

When we have chance winning with 296 on the board...... why should we leave that opportunity. if a bowler don't have commitment to win the game, then what's the use to blame the batsmen. Batsmen were try something different when they came to crease and they have all the rights to play big shots at that moment. but pitch behave differently.
Switchblade Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 yes absolutely u r right. irfan and RP were never given a chance atleast. some people will say that they didn't performing well in domestic cricket.

Apart from ZAK these guys cant even bowl a yorker while a guy like Steyn bowls yorker at will

That one player won't get chances and can't be replaced with some others.
HowardRoark Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Apart from ZAK these guys cant even bowl a yorker while a guy like Steyn bowls yorker at will Nehra used to bowl good yorkers...I have no idea how he managed to lose it on the way...Is it even possible to forget bowling yorkers?
Switchblade Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Nehra used to bowl good yorkers...I have no idea how he managed to lose it on the way...Is it even possible to forget bowling yorkers? Howard i mentioned in one of MANNYS thread about Nehra when he came back in 2009
Red Eye Jedi Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 not a huge cricket fan myself, but i do enjoy the world cups, specially when india, pakistan or bangladesh play. i saw the game against southafrica, and have to say this nehra guy attitude shocks me. i think much has been said about his bowling and i agree with most people here, he is aweful. but what amazes me is he keeps grinning like a donkey everytime he messes up, like its something funny, Just wanna slap him accross the face with a wet fish.
