abu nechim looks good

[gakgupta]

guyzz...seen this guy in today champions league match and looks good. I am not an expert but seems to have very smooth action and good control. Have a decent yorker and smooth release. Seen starc and cummings of NSW earlier today and surprisingly I liked abu nechim better than these 2 guyz. I know, there is a fast bowling analyst who is an active member of ICF. Can you plss analyse ABU's action and let us know?

Fast bowling analyst is "Fifth Umpire" I guess.

I'm no expert, but can give opinions as this forum permits, abu nechim is talented, he always had the pace, it was his direction and variations which were missing, till IPL 4 he had this tendency to drift down the leg side a lot, because of his slinging action. He seems to have corrected it a bit, and has added a nice slower ball in his bowling armory, after 2-3 seasons of IPL. Better late than never, but i think until he gets picked for India A, Emerging & what not tournaments, he can't be considered seriously, though he was in the U19 world cup team which entered Finals, during the time of Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan

The desperation I see in posters these days about fast bowlers . He was nothing special.

I dont think he is bowling at his full tilt in IPL because of not being wayward. He did not bowl badly yesterday. Line and lengths were good, but still went for some unlucky runs runs through edges and deflection. I am sure he can bowl faster than what he bowled yesterday if told be bowl as quick as he can.

:giggle: Desperation galore :D

[msb1991]

I don't think he is anything too special. His domestic records are average for a reason. He is wayward and his 'pace' appears to be 135kph which isn't anything to write home about.

[saneindian]

All these guys have the talent. The most depressing part is the complete lack of development of these bowlers despite playing first class cricket for 2-3 years. Likes of Tyagi, Nechim, Dinda, Dhawal Kulkarni, Sangwan etc have been around for 2-3 seasons, played IPL as well under better coaches yet have not shown much improvement. The less said about the BCCI, the better. Wonder when was the last time BCCI organised a 10-15 day long camp for the talented pacers in the country getting best coaches from the world to come to NCA for a short duration and train the youngsters.

[gakgupta]

hmm...might sound like desperation but that's the truth after seeing the england tour

[achilles]

Nechim used to be India's fastest bowler once upon a time. But then ICL happened.

it is when your bowlers are 120kmph ,he bowls at 135-145km/h and on espn speed guns brettlee,nannes,steyn are bowling at 130-140 km/h so you can tell.

[Pagalpanti]

Why isn't he being considered ahead of Koomar and Aravind. Unless the speed guns are faulty, he touched 90 mph easily and was consistently over 140 kph (88mph).

[nsareen]

absolutely , extremely absolutely, he was bowling really well. He ACTUALLY disguised Warner with the slower one, BEAT watson, smith for pace... henriques had no clue of the pace. all the balls above 140+.... what else does one need.

[rkt.india]

bowled 147K today, was really bowling quick in rhythm and is certainly given some confidence by team management. In India fast bowlers lack confidence of captain and team management and then try to control their pace rather than going for bowling quick.

[saneindian]

Give the guy a spot in one of the Challenger trophy squads. Deserves to be encouraged.

[nsareen]

why is he being wasted ??? why doesn't sachin or some dam guy in the MI team management recommend him ???? why in the world are they wasting him.

Dude he is still better than VK's of the Indian Team. 135+ in ODI's is better than VK's & Munaf's
