[bihutoli]

[chainsmoker]

O Bhai, slow ball naam ki bhi koi cheez hoti hai...

[Old guy]

like i said before yes he might get you a wicket in first spell but what after 20 overs? when theres no swing what then 69 mph slower balls? more over he wont get a new ball.. ishant and yadav will if zack is unfit and yadav and zack will if isahnt is injured so wht we need is a complete bowler now a new ball bowler we need some one like dinda irfan like always is overhyped

:hysterical::hysterical: if they make seaming conditions then maybe he might do the job but on flat tracks he is dead fish :P

I agree Irfan is better than what we already have in back up there in Australia. I won't be surprised if he goes there to replace ZAK/Ishant and Fletcher, Dhoni get him in XI ahead of 2 quota players. LOL he is more pacy than Vinay Kumar and Mithun. And a much better mover of the ball than both of these combined together.

Irfan & pace:hysterical:

I don't know why you people are worried ,we have Abhimanyu Steyn and Vinay Philander :giggle:

Good news is Aravind is out with Knee injury.So even if any of our bowlers get injured selectors cant select him

[Dravid_TheWall]

This doesn't make much difference. Ishant is just a supportive bowler, we have plenty to fulfil that role. As said before, for us to win this series, ZK and Yadav key!

Any latest news on Sree fitness

read my post again I said Irfan's pace dropped up 110 (69 mph) towards the end of his bowling ie towards the end of his 9 overs which is exactly what happened in the last three overs he bowled Ifran "pace" Pathan over 7 Over 8 Pathan Pollard has to go mad now. Singles won't do Over 9 Pathan and what i said seems to be a fair comment. Pathan started off at about 80 in his first spell and towards the end was bowling at about 110 (69mph) which seems to be fair looking at the speeds he generated in his final over spell. but to say he was in the 80-84mph zone is just not accurate by any means. In his last three over 1 ball touched 80. Rest of his balls where below 80. In many cases well below 80mph.

so in an ODI in Chennai with a dussty pitch he started bowling slower ball at the end n u deduce he is slow?

[Dravid_TheWall]

Any latest news on Sree fitness[/quote'] He would definitely be included by me if I was chief selector. As far as I know, Sree has made himself available for Aus ODI series but currently doing rehab for his injury, so ruled out of test. So many injuries for this series to our bowlers.

[BeautifulGame]

Any latest news on Sree fitness[/quote'] Which Aus tour are u mentioning? Sreesanth wasnt even part of our test squad last time and hasnt even played a single test in Australia.

The slower ball is a surprise weapon to be bowled occasionally. If 5 out of 6 balls are slower balls then you are just a slow bowler not a medium pacer bowling the surprise slower ball...He was easily found out by Pollard. If he loses steam like this in a ten over max format, imagine what will happen in a Test Match where he will have to bowl long spells with the old ball.

I guess he was part of the ODI series there

[achilles]

Gony? This is the Indian National side. Not the Chennai Super Kings.
