rkt.india Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Until Pathan sorts his seam position out, he wont gain pace. It looks like he is always bowling slower balls with that crooked thumb seam position.
retterimp Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Close this thread.:hysterical: but but he eats beef... so he shud be phhstrrr, what happened to that theory :giggle::giggle:

retterimp Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 How do u know he eats beef???:giggle::winky: Did u checked his food???:winky: real pathan always does, if he doesn't then he is rightly called fake pathan :haha::haha:
Tiger80 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 39.4 Irfan pathan 128.7 129.2 wide 39.6 128.7
VRV Singh Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 41.5 Pathan to Mukund, no run, a slow bouncer through to the keeper.
Vijay.Sharma Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Although it is sad to say this but I'll still say it. I don't mind an Irfan bowling in the high 120s as long as he can pick his wickets.
master22 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 useless trundler!!Though his batting will come in handy
MCcricket Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Guys have patience, it is his first game after a long lay off, how did Sangwan , Krishnaarty bowl , was Irfan decent or not in rhythm , I haven't seen the replay yet
MCcricket Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Best thing Irfan can do is playing county, BCCI did not let him , he will get fitter bowling wise, get his rhythm and it is the place for swing bowlers to get in the groove.
King Tendulkar Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 All agree his bowling is pants. The biggest myth is his batting which is so over hyped. I say this seriously, jajdeja is a far better bat then Crapthan. Once again Crapthan lets down his silly fan club. ps dont want to see a post of his ball against gilly from 56BC as some proof of his quality

MCcricket Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 iRFAN BOWLED MUCH BETTER IN THE LATTER HALF OF ipl THEN YESTERDAY , hopefully it can only get better from here, lets see.
ch1234 Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 I think Irfan has set his eye on Harbhajan's spot in the XI. India needs a good left arm spinner
VRV Singh Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 ^:cantstop: Seriously though he will need more time than this, he's a different case to most of the other forgotten men. I'm pretty sure he played no cricket/was injured for about a year, played a bit of Bollywood stuff in his 'comeback' but has done jack since. Anyone who watched, is his action still very mechanical? To me it looks like his biggest barrier to any swing of note but Im no expert. If this latest comeback culminates in stupid offcutters getting hit out of the park again, forget it..but he is one of those you'd like to give a chance.

Very tru, he needs to play county , and only make a comeback when fully in groove.

Bhai...he has only one problem that is the way he holds the ball in his hand, the grip with crooked thumb, too deep in his palm. It looks like his every ball is a slower ball. Brett Lee balls slower balls with this grip. I do not know why he is so rigid to understand this and is not changing it. The way his grip is, the cannot be accurate all the time and able to generate enough pace with that grip. He may swing it a bit, but without enough pace, it won't matter much.
