Sid Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 I think Khalil can be a better option than Talha' date=' he is now very much experienced bowler. Remember Khalil? He was selected with Asif in 2005 AUS tour, both did not performed very well there but after an year Asif got one little chance in to play a side matchs vs Eng, performed very well and selected again... Khalil was never given a chance again... just yesterday he took a 9for in FC match...[/quote'] Yes Khalil,he played Kolkatta test as well.Looked pretty ordinary at that time.

Asim Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Yes Khalil' date='he played Kolkatta test as well.Looked pretty ordinary at that time.[/quote'] Yes but at that time Asif was even more ordinary looking... Khalil was wicket less in 2 tests but not that bad in his only 3 ODis, took 5 including wickets of Gilchrist and Lara...

vayuu1 Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Actually got a hard on watching him bowl today Gay:hysterical:
f.b.m Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Hmm only one match into it but seems like I might have called it right. Aaron seems to be better in one dayers with skiddy pace but can also slide nicely onto the bat a bit like Brett Lee. Umesh seems like he bowls a heavy ball and generally moves the ball more so might be better for tests. A good thing about the IPL is that both of these guys can bowl yorkers in the end (Aaron seems a bit better at it) so we might have finally solved our death bowling problem.
kabira Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 You need to move bowl to beat top class batsman, only pace will not help otherwise Devon Malcolm would have been greatest bwoler
Trundler27 Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 You need to move bowl to beat top class batsman' date=' only pace will not help otherwise Devon Malcolm would have been greatest bwoler[/quote'] Devon Malcolm hahaha goodness gracious I remember that guy.... that was around the time when the english pace attack was filled with guyz like defreitas, gladstone small, angus fraser.... man they sucked.
Trichromatic Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 You need to move bowl to beat top class batsman' date=' only pace will not help otherwise Devon Malcolm would have been greatest bwoler[/quote'] You can learn to move the ball, but you can't become a fast bowler if you aren't.
f.b.m Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 You need to move bowl to beat top class batsman' date=' only pace will not help otherwise Devon Malcolm would have been greatest bwoler[/quote'] Not in one dayers. But you need to be 140+ kmph consistently. Look at Brett Lee or Mohammad Sami: Both have good one day records. Then again Aaron could play in tests mainly concentrating on reverse swing.
Trundler27 Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Commenting on Aaron's debut game ...... he kept his composure and bowled a good line. His yorkers towards the end were mighty impressive and all the while he maintained 140+ pace. He was definitely worth the wait and I hope to see him play many many more games for us.
Sid Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Aaron was moving the ball out in his 1st spell and later on as well.Plus those reverse swinging balls in the end.He is definately not all about pace,he has some other skills as well.
mhr123 Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXjGdw2UdQc]Fastest Ball bowled By Indian-153.4km/h-Varun aaron - YouTube[/ame] just saw this video on youtube.. starts with 141 , 143 , 147 and ends at 153.. in a domestic match.. can we trust the speed guns out there??

He won't get much conventional swing here, but reverse swing can be very good especially in tests in subcontinent.
Cricket Tragic Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Devon Malcolm hahaha goodness gracious I remember that guy.... that was around the time when the english pace attack was filled with guyz like defreitas' date=' gladstone small, [b']angus fraser.... man they sucked. What are you talking about? Gus was a damn fine bowler.
