ganeshran Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Can he bowl faster than Davengere express :dontmentionit:
Magneto Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Can he bowl faster than Davengere express :dontmentionit: He would have been the 2nd seamer had he been faster. Not a lowly 3rd seamer :hehe:
ganeshran Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 He would have been the 2nd seamer had he been faster. Not a lowly 3rd seamer :hehe: Trundlers, I tell you :headshake:
rahulrulezz Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 this guy should be a regular' date= when this guy bowls i never miss a single delivery, such a great find True. Didn't even see Indias batting. Saw his first 6 over spell and last 2 spells.
chainsmoker1985 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 He would have been the 2nd seamer had he been faster. Not a lowly 3rd seamer :hehe: Thats only coz of Dhoni's love for trundlers. :mad: Otherwise he'd have been much more lethal with the new ball, the way he was charged up today
chainsmoker1985 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 One thing I really wish- Umesh should not play in IPL matches. He should be preserved. The hectic schedule of IPL is very threatening
Old guy Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 One thing I really wish- Umesh should not play in IPL matches. He should be preserved. The hectic schedule of IPL is very threatening right now wont mind him playing.. the skills he will develop there will come in handy like bowling at end.. but yes there is chance of injury but this guy is super fit.. in test series he only bowled in half the innings :hysterical: (1 benefit of innings defeat) and even in cb series he is not playing every match so i think he will survive :nice:
Magneto Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Thats only coz of Dhoni's love for trundlers. :mad: Otherwise he'd have been much more lethal with the new ball' date=' the way he was charged up today[/quote'] 1) Had he been all that great, he would have been nicknamed 'Express' (the way our 'Davangere Express' is nicknamed). No one calls Umesh 'Express'. 2) He only got charged up when he saw how Vinay took out Ponting and then bowled a maiden over against the flow of the game. And so when he was given the ball, he promptly came a bowled a maiden over like a copycat. 3) Dhoni is our thanda-thanda-cool-cool captain who has won all the important trophies in cricket (excepting Ranji). He knows who is good enough to be the 2nd seamer and who is good enough to be the 3rd. :beee:

MCcricket Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Umesh to me is the best fast bowling prospect I have seen playing for India, pace up there with Bond, easy action, good attitude and is fit,Umesh, Ishant, Varun if they all improve India will have three FAST bowlers , so in test's or ODI'S we can have 1 or 2 bowlers from the three playing depending on conditions and form, Zak, Munaf, can be the senior pro's, Irfan to me is a vital cog but not liked by Dhoni,and the last spot can go to Sreesanth, Dinda, Gony or some rookie depending on form.
bajrang Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 ^^ishant is done,man. he has gone the way of irfan RP sreesanth, hope 2-3 year down the line maybe he will get his mojo back. right now he is the indian Mohamed sami.

peterparker Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 ishant is not yet done...his speed is right up there..yes,,irfan pathan is a bakwaas acutally..overhyped
nsareen Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 'Umesh is the find of the tour' - Gambhir Suresh Raina and Umesh Yadav celebrate the dismissal of Peter Forrest, Australia v India, Commonwealth Bank Series, Adelaide, February 12, 2012 "Someone who can bowl 150 consistently. It's time we can give back to the opposition what we have been receiving for years and years" © Getty Images Enlarge Related Links Players/Officials: Gautam Gambhir | Umesh Yadav Matches: Australia v India at Adelaide Series/Tournaments: Commonwealth Bank Series Teams: India Gautam Gambhir has termed Umesh Yadav the find of the tour, and India's possible answer to the fast bowlers who have tormented their batsmen for long. He said it was time people stopped saying India can't produce fast bowlers. However, Gambhir's optimism about Yadav doesn't quite reconcile with the team management's. Before Yadav played the game against Australia on February 12, he had last bowled in a competitive environment on January 27. When he got a limited-overs game, though, Yadav bowled 10 overs for just 49, bowling inside Powerplays and at the death, removing two dangerous-looking batsmen, Michael Clarke and Peter Forrest. "Umesh for me is the find of the tour," Gambhir said. "Someone who can bowl 150 consistently. It's time we can give back to the opposition what we have been receiving for years and years. "Someone who can hit the deck hard and bowl 150 consistently can rattle any batsman in the world, even the greats … 150 coming at you is always tough to face. Especially in the middle overs. The way he bowled for those two crucial wickets were fantastic. More than the wickets, 149-150 consistently is a great find, and hopefully we can try and develop him as a matchwinner for us. Still early days, hopefully he can go on for a long time, and try and take lots and lots of wickets." When asked where Yadav had been all this while - on tour but not being played - Gambhir didn't quite have a concrete response. In both the Twenty20s, India went with two specialist spinners to go with a group of part-time spinners. They did the same in the first one-dayer. Then Zaheer Khan recovered from his knee niggle, and was back as the third quick. There was an apparent lack of confidence in Yadav until the game against Australia. It could have had to do with his lack of control in Tests where he strayed onto the legs often and conceded runs at 4.66 per over, which took his series average to 39.35 despite a decent strike-rate of a wicket every 50.5 balls, the best among the Indian bowlers in the series. "There has always been a rotation policy," Gambhir said. "PK [Praveen Kumar] bowled well when he last came to Australia, and with two new balls he could have done well. But then Umesh, as we have seen, against Australia, on such a flat track, bowling that well, hopefully now he should play a lot more games." Gambhir went on to rave about Yadav some more. "Someone who can bowl 150 is great for Indian cricket because we have been missing this for years and years. We talk a lot about our fast bowlers that they are not as quick, but someone like Umesh, I think, he is fantastic for us. Now people should stop talking we can't produce fast bowlers. He can clock 150 with semi-new ball, we have developed one."
