Malcolm Merlyn Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Since the 2008 australia series and then NZ series and now SL Indian bowlers seem to be getting a lot of reverse swing,where as opposition bowlers have struggled.Ahve we become better on it then most? DISCUSS Link to comment
Andy Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Well i wont say beter dan most...but we are getting it dats more dan enuf!! Link to comment
Sachinism Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I agree. Those who say no, which bowlers are doing it better? Link to comment
Karan114 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Well i wont say beter dan most...but we are getting it dats more dan enuf!! Agree with this. We are not brilliant with it but we are doing enough to win Test matches, which is enough. Link to comment
Karan114 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I agree. Those who say no' date=' which bowlers are doing it better?[/quote'] Umar Gul? Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Zak, Ishant, Sree all can reverse. But that alone is not enough for Test bowling. Link to comment
DomainK Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 We did an outstanding job against the Aussies. Their bowlers were totally baffled at how ZAK and Ishant were doing it. Yes, our bowlers are the best at it now. Link to comment
Show_stopper Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hey sunnyj_2k..can you tell me what sort of speeds Sree was bowling at today? I didn't watch the action live today..only caught the wickets package. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hey sunnyj_2k..can you tell me what sort of speeds Sree was bowling at today? I didn't watch the action live today..only caught the wickets package. Avge speed 135k i suppose. He did clock above 140 few times. But he was too quick for several batsmen. Probably a "heavy baller" Link to comment
Sachinism Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Umar Gul? But we have a bunch of bowlers who are able to do it. We've seen our bowlers use if effectively and knock over the opposition and win games. Link to comment
Show_stopper Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 ^ Cool..I guess he really has got his fitness back then. Sree that we saw in SA in 2006 was really amazing. Consistent pace coupled with that outswinger. The delivery ti get rid of Dilshan in the 2nd innings reminded of those days. Link to comment
kabira Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Avge speed 135k i suppose. He did clock above 140 few times. But he was too quick for several batsmen. Probably a "heavy baller" His quickest today was 140 kph, so how did he clock above 140 few times. Link to comment

We've seen our bowlers use if effectively and knock over the opposition and win games. Yeah don't disagree with that. Individually it may be different but collectively we are doing it well to win Tests. Link to comment

Hopefully Ishant can recover the form that he had last year. So far we have seen Sree at his best and Ishant at his best at different points, in both cases the other guy was out of sorts. If we can have both Sree and Ishant firing, boy will that be devastating. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 His quickest today was 140 kph' date=' so how did he clock above 140 few times.[/quote'] i remember one or two times. But overall the he is the quickest one of the reason he was quicker than other fast bowlers. Link to comment

So far we have seen Sree at his best and Ishant at his best at different points, in both cases the other guy was out of sorts. If we can have both Sree and Ishant firing, boy will that be devastating. We did see what they could do together in that CB series..even though it was ODIs. But the most important factor is their fitness..because our bowlers tend to get injured quite frequently. Anyway I really hope Ishant gets his pace back.. Link to comment
Celeste Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Good to see non Pakistani bowlers using the reverse swing skill more regularly. Link to comment

For quite a while we've seen the whole batting line up in top form. When was the last time the bowling attack was like that. Maybe England 07. But I wouldn't say they were all at top form Link to comment
