I can see some glimpses of Steyn in Umesh when he bowls the outswingers bow

[ShebbySB]

I see glimpses of Bejan Daruwala in OP. Hint: OP is a numerologist and made grand total of two predictions both of which turned out to be wrong http://www.indiancricketfans.com/showthread.php?t=273073

What's OP?:hmmm:

Anyway my 2nd prediction isn't wrong,we won the series.....that's what I predicted. Ponka predicted that Poms will win the series.I said we'll win it 4-1 but 5-0 is a possibility & that has happened.

Ok,thnks mate.

I'm not comparing UY with Steyn,I've said there are some simmilarities like Darren Bravo has with Lara.Does that mean they are of same class???!!! If UY or Darren can do the half of what a Steyn or a Lara have done then we're in for some exciting moments in future.

[phaedrus]

whats with our bowlers being compared to steyn after a couple of performances. still remember someone's post about ishant sharma ovetaking steyn in a few years.

I'm not comparing their abilities.I'm talking abt the similarities when they bowl the outswinger.

Yeah Darren will average 27 in tests, while UY will have bowling average 50 . That would be exciting. :yay:

lol @ all the great glimpses on offer but on a serious note, umesh has done fairly well in the opportunities he has got so far with the Indian team. It would be absolutely wonderful if he can play an entire series under the mentorship of Zak (hint: aussie series). He has much better potential than some of the venomous Karnataka phaast bowlers being promoted by tenvic

[panther]

i think some fans are overrating him all i see in umesh is a bang it in short type of bowler not saying that he won't improve

[carnish]

Yes...Only Ganguly is class.

GANGULY was class... no one can deny the fact... he got over 15 ODI centuries in just 3 years... thats class for me... its sad he could not sustain that over long time and so he was never a grt legend...

This thread has potential to be an answer to Sehwag v Nazir thread.

This thread has potential to be an answer to Sehwag v Nazir thread.

Surely its not as dire a comparison as that! Atleast they bowl at similar speeds

[Dravid_TheWall]

Can you stay on topic rather than diverting every bowling thread by boasting about Sree's bowling.

It is on topic. I said the comparison is premature. You may want to look at other threads that have been derailed by others when they were soley originally about the kerala speedster. This thread has also been derailed by others, perhaps warn them too, rather than employ double standards.
