Ishant and Sree are ****

[yoda]

I thought Ishant will be our Dale Steyn . That dream has gone. Maybe he will improve and become the next Madan Lal.

:cantstop:

[apuk79]

yeah damn right lets face facts we are **** at bowling and whoever comes in would be equally **** god knows how we became number 1 just shows how stats are a load of BS

[Iconoclast]

Can anyone explain why Sharma is only bowling 80mph ? No swing, no accuracy and now no pace equals no wickets.

[Temujin Khaghan]

ishanth is a dumbass.... he never has control over the game... if the batsman dominates or defends against him he goes off into a shell sreesanth is little better... but his stock delivery in crisis is the spray ball

[fineleg]

Batsmen flopped this series. Finito!

[Desi Cartman]

Yes bring back Ashok "the Deniss Lillie" Dinda :protest:

[The Realist]

Yes bring back Ashok "the Deniss Lillie" Dinda :protest:

Yeah with THAT headband B-> But seriously the bowling cupboard is not only bare but the door has fallen off. No pacers, no swingers, no spinners, just a black hole. Depressing

[apuk79]

damn right india never had good pace bowlers the stock delivery of every indian fast bowler is basically **** in various directions

[Cricket Tragic]

I thought Ishant will be our Dale Steyn . That dream has gone. Maybe he will improve and become the next Madan Lal.

:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Do we have Steyn or McGrath on the bench? Let's face it, there aren't many better 'fast' bowlers in India.

[vvvslaxman]

Actually nada pal bowled brilliantly in the 1986 tour. He was surprisingly called up when he was playing county cricket

[Midfielder]

This team has given up and that is the bottom line. Let us not blame the bowlers as it is the batting that is the problem.

Nope both have sucked. if you say only batting it wont be fair because on these conditions you do expect bowlers to take wickets. I know batsman didn't do anything with the bat and posted a very small total, but the bowlers should then take the responsibility to get quick wickets and restrict the lead of the opposition which is not happening. So I blame the bowlers as much as the batsman. yes batsman have been most disappointing, but bowlers haven't really supported Indias cause in this series.

[CG]

That is all.

Only thing **** is you.That all mate This is sports.Its very easy to sit ay home and write ,do not forget same bowlers have won us many tests.

[CG]

:hatsoff:

yes batsman have flopped after a long time ,its been a long time since 6 batsman have flopped ,they will be back to form soon

Indian team is built around batting. Twice the bowlers kept them in the game and batsman turned around and frecked it up. Now they have given up and that is how it goes. sad but true.

[Rahul Dravid]

they need to ball with venom today. if they dont, we;ll be 3-0 down...

[Ultimate_Game]

Can't really blame the bowlers really. Our batsmen have done jack s**t this series and hasn't given bowlers anything to defend or to put pressure on opposition. And if you factor in that we were playing with just 3 bowlers in the first 2 Tests (no Zak in the 1st and Harbi out in the 2nd), they have done reasonably well. They have hardly gotten any rest as well since our famed batting has generally lasted 60 odd overs before the bowlers are out bowling again. In fact I can't even recall the last time our batsmen batted for more than a day or when we played out a session without losing any wkt :omg:

[Trichromatic]

This match was the best chance where batsmen could put up a decent score and give something to bowlers. Why ridiculing bowlers here? 84-0. It's a reasonable score on this pitch. You seriously don't expect India type batting collapse. If India had scored over 400, then this bowling won't look this bad as it is looking now. You're comparing bowling with that 111-7 in mind. If you think that England batsman should do what Indian batsmen did, then that's not going to happen.

They need to string together four consecutive sessions and they have not. Bottom line is middle order depends on top and if top fails they all do. Bottom line top is failing.

Agreed.
