Umesh Yadav has a bright future, say former pacers Banerjee, Srinath

[JeffThommo_fan]

Umesh Yadav's family are originally from UP' date=' looks like UP ,Bihar, Jharkhand will supply the fast bowlers for India in the future also a shame BCCI talent scouts development wing could'nt identify and nurture that, looks like there was always raw material in these places for us to have fast bowlers, but due to corrupt state associations most talents in these region is wasted, it took us soo long to even bring cricket and get talent from other parts of this country thanks to BCCI.Also with IPL youngsters have a hope that even if they are ignored or selections are not fair at domestic levels they can have some future looking at other unknown players come to the fore, there is so much quota system, nepotism in state associations I hope it gets better.[/quote'] Bihar still doesn't come under BCCI for some unknown reason

That is absurd it is like SAI saying we will not pick up athletes from Punjab, bcoz of problem with the state association , HOW caN BCCI BE BOARD OF CONTROL FOR CRICKET IN INDIA THEN

The sad part is, these bowlers from Bihar can never join MRF pace academy or NCA. Thats because players are sent only by the state board. And according to BCCI, Bihar has NO cricketing board !

^ Isn't BCA part of BCCI? http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/story/256671.html What's Bhalu Parsad Yadav doing then?

[Rightarmfast]

/\ No its not...I am sure Jharkhand would not have accepted the merge. Bihar is still in the doldrums ! Bhalu yadav, nobody likes him in Bihar..And never did !

Good to know dhoni is Saving Umesh but 3 over spells all the time is acually under utilising him specially seeing umesh"s fitness.... He seems to be the fittest guys we have and his an athlete when it comes to fielding.. A 5 over spell is most appropriate.
