saneindian Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Apparaently MSD isn't keen on Irfan as PK's replacement. There have been rumors of a fall out between Irfan and MSD in the past, wonder if that' still relevant.
vamos_rafa Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Confident Irfan looks to the future NEW DELHI: With 19 wickets and three fivers in the kitty from five innings in the Ranji season, Irfan Pathan is back in the frame. Out of national consideration for more than three years, the 27-year-old Baroda seamer is making the chances count this time around. Most importantly, his much celebrated in-swingers are back, troubling batsmen no end. "The ball is coming out just the way I want it to. I have worked with TA Shekar for a few months now and things have got sorted out," Pathan said on Wednesday, on the sidelines of the Delhi-Baroda Ranji match. Besides, Irfan is not neglecting his batting, putting in a lot of hours of practice with the willow. Irfan says he has left the hamstring injury behind and has been bowling long spells with good intensity. "I'm bowling long spells and batting a lot as well. So, that answers questions about my fitness." Now that he is performing well, does he see himself touring Australia with the Test now that Praveen Kumar has been ruled out with injury? Irfan refrained from commenting on his chances. "It's always feels good when you perform well," he said. Given the pace bowling resources India have at the moment, Irfan may have to wait for a fair amount of time before he can make an international comeback. But if he can keep bowling the way he has been this season, he may start ringing a few bells around. :facepalm: Can't he just keep quite and perform?
saneindian Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 :facepalm: Can't he just keep quite and perform? Yeah the guy who takes 5 wickets on the day should not talk to the press? Comeon dude, Wahan jo journalist baithe hain wo aise jaane de denge use?
achilles Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 I've not seen him bowl but surely he must be doing better as he is top wicket taker in Ranji trophy as of now. And if he's better batsmen than how he's bowling now' date=' then it just gets better :P[/quote'] Hmm. But who will he replace in the XI apart from Kooomar, who is already a replacement?

For someone who talks about about Bhajji being abused/targetted endlessly on ICF, you are yourself setting some amazing standards KT.
putrevus Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Delhi ends with first innings score of 415 after being 5/74 in 19th over, guess what a keeper ends scoring 223, does this remind you of any matches where mighty Irfan Pathan looked clueless after initial overs. This is what Irfan Pathan is if he gets any wickets in his opening overs everybody should thank their lucky stars because he will be just awful rest of the way for next 70 to 75 overs. If that joker Mithun is their first choice, this guy is better than him any day.

Even if Dhoni doesn't like Pathan, I don't see him getting his way if the selectors are keen on him.
King Tendulkar Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 For someone who talks about about Bhajji being abused/targetted endlessly on ICF' date=' you are yourself setting some amazing standards KT.[/quote'] Bhaji with over 10 years of constant good service for Indian team with 400 plus wickets. Crapthan 1 good ball against gilly and a hatrick against pak. Lollipos crpathan deserves all the stick ke gets, or to be honest his delusional fans need the stick.

If that joker Mithun is their first choice, this guy is better than him any day. So the guy takes 7 wickets and yet he should be the one blamed for the opponents scoring 400+ ? What are the other bowlers doing?

No wonder Bhajj gets so much stick with hypocrite fans like you.

If you are launching a campaign for crapthan, then you should go after Oijha, as the team compisition means there is only room for 1 slow left arm bowler!

Naah I am against name calling of any sorts for any player. If Bhajji doesnt deserve abuse so does Pathan.
