Holysmoke Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Looks like a kick up his a$$ has made him see the truth. Lets see how he goes from here. see this video. http://www.cricketnext.com/videos/25194/bhajji-out-to-reinvent-himself.html
Holysmoke Posted May 28, 2007 Author Posted May 28, 2007 pretty interesting video.. bowling with that compressed ball.. thats the first time ive seen a ball like that.. will help if he has to bowl with a new ball... also, trying to land each ball on the same place..
CC1981 Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Not bad but someone should tell Harby that aiming at a beach-ball sized patch on the pitch isnt gonna cut it. When Ambrose, Gupte, Bedi, etc. practiced, they practiced on a patch the size of a coin. Must land balls regularly on a patch the size of coin, Harby ! A spinner cannot afford four-balls.
King Tendulkar Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 To me its not his effort that is the question. Its simply that he does not seem to be able to turn the offie significantly any more. Lets hope it gets that turing again
kumble_rocks Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 ^ Not to mention , he has lost all confidence in his doosra.
Dhondy Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Loser. He is missing his endorsements. No more easy money for you, Bhajji.
Predator_05 Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 I still have hope for Harbhajan. Looking forward to seeing him play again.
Ram Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 nobody is doubting his ability.. The problem is his attitude. The guy is all arrogance. He is not suited for a team sport..
Gambit Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 He relies a bit too much on his offie and in the recent past, he's got the line horribly wrong. More often that not, he pitched his offie on middle and leg where batsmen either used to work him for easy ones and twos or sweep him for boundaries. He's also got to be more attacking, especially in test cricket. Haven't seen him give the ball as much rip and air as he used to.
King Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 There is nothing new about that ball, even we use that. In fact we use the stump sized cricket bat too with no sides or edges to improve hitting the ball from the middle of the bat. Why does media cover even training sessions of the players. Do the players use the media for their come back? I see Bhajji is using the SG ball for practice. It is not the SG ball he has problems with, it is the kokaburra ball he struggles with. Spray painting the pitch is not a new trick as well, it's all been tried and tested. Good for Bhajji to put in the hard work but the media is showing as if this is the best thing since sliced bread. Bhajji is a fantastic fella though. A very humble and a great guy. I hope he gets back to his wicket taking ways, I wouldn't like to see him wane away.
The Outsider Posted May 29, 2007 Posted May 29, 2007 What a waste of space this guy is. I can't believe I once had a long, drawn out debate with Dhondy defending this lanfakeer.
gs Posted May 29, 2007 Posted May 29, 2007 Yeah.. some more news along these lines.. Veeru on South beach diet, Argarkar considers whey protein and gets GNC membership, Munaf on athritis medication :haha:
yoda Posted May 29, 2007 Posted May 29, 2007 the guy has a good PR machine in place. expect to keep hearing his name.
beetle Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Why can't these guys work hard when they are a part of the team.......laaton ke bhoot!:dontknow:
ludhianvi Posted June 1, 2007 Posted June 1, 2007 His seam position and revolutions has always been good. He needs to work on something else
