Jersey #10 Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 This topic is older than the taj mahal - You don't need pace to be a good bowler. Example, McGrath For me, Our three best bowlers are Zak, Munna and Praveen.

Mariyam Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 The speed guns are all with the traffic havaldars who stand on the queen's necklace during late nights to book those hi society F1 wannabe youngsters in their imported cars. Worst kind of drivers I tell you.

Example, McGrath For me, Our three best bowlers are Zak, Munna and Praveen. McGrath did have a good pace in his first half of the career before he went through a surgery. Most of the world class bowlers did have pace at the beginning of their careers and later on when they are in their late 20's or early 30's become fast medium bowlers with more control and swing.

Zak also had pace at the start of his career and now he has become medium pace with more control :winky:
kabira Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 In subcontinent, faster you bowl, faster it goes off the bat.. Lee, Johnson, Tait, Morkel will have tough time in the world cup Tsotsobe and Bollinger will be the best bowler..just mark my words

Correction: Zaheer is always around at 128- 137kph Parveen Maximum at 125-132kph Munaf is always around 120-130Kps Asish Maximum at 127-135Kph
Roshanrocks Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 same topic over n over n over n over again :asleep:
hari504504 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 there is going to be a twist in the tale.. Munna is going to get injured while celebrating his WC inclusion and Atul Sharma is going to take his place.
Superman Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 9.3 Patel to Smith, no run, 117.4 kph, back of a length on middle and off, Smith moved well across to turn it fine, clipped the thighs on the way to the keeper, actually went over the stumps 9.2 Patel to Smith, no run, 119.5 kph, short of a good length, taps it back onto the pitch.:giggle:
hari504504 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 ^ A tad slower and Dhoni can get him to ditch his run-up and count him as a spinner - hey atleast he won't get fined for the over-rate...

I don't care about anything else. He may bowl at 50 mph or at 100 mph. Anybody remembers Gavin Larsen from NZ? He was so instrumental in NZ's good ODI performances in 90's and he used to bowl around 110-120 kmph. Speed is not that essential a virtue for a medium pacer.

Speed is not that essential a virtue for a medium pacer.Larsen was more or less 120-125k, and he cut his pace to that amount deliberately. Have seen him getting up to 137k in test matches. But he was not that effective when he bowled quicker.

Speed is not that essential a virtue for a medium pacer. do u know that Smith is celebrating that he is facing Munaf instead of dangerous sreesanth in one dayers...Smith is scoring some runs now a 70 + score in which he nearly won a match on his own and a near 50 score...if ZAK does not take him .. nehra and Munaf cannot get him out , it seems only bhajji and sree can get him out apart of
vishalvirsingh Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 there is going to be a twist in the tale.. Munna is going to get injured while celebrating his WC inclusion and Atul Sharma is going to take his place. atul sharma --- who is he... he plays for which team..?
vishalvirsingh Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 If pace is not required.......than why Irfan pathan' date='RP Singh,Balaji were ignored?[/quote'] i totally agree with Sudhir.. if pace is nothing than we have a GREAT Allrounder irfan Pathan.. he bats as good as his brother and bowls medium pace at 120K.. i will pick him ahead of MUNNA any time in the year. munna is not better than SreeSANTH... sree is better than IRFAN as sree is a wicket taker. munna is a run restrictive bowler which even irfan pathan is, just that he is not being supported by selectors , i do not know WHY????
