de Lange takes 7-fer on debut for the Saffers

[Cricket Tragic]

Looks pretty good but fitness is important. So many young fast bowlers break down today after a few tests.

[SachDan]

Great talent. Shortest run up among all fast / medium pace bowlers in world cricket' date= bowls quicker than 145 k/h consistently. If he remains injury free, he will be troubling a few batsmen, rest assured.

You accuse your fellow countrymen of over hyping our players, being far too emotional, being sensitive lot etc but having watched a player from another country perform well in just one innings and you couldn't resist tag him with the "great" title. You belongs to which bunch?

oh my bad! for a moment I forgot you are one of those genuine cricket lovers..one who appreciates the emergence of a young rookie fast bowler representing another country or going ga-ga over a good batsman who played a decent knock after ages yet rightly ridiculing all those fools waiting in anticipation of one "useless landmark" :two_thumbs_up:

[phaedrus]

another good addition to their bowling lineup. strong upper body, uses a lot of shoulder. it is a great sight to see so much fast bowling talent crop up in the past year or so. great, great signs

A simple Yes.

[Serani]

Anyone thats makes a debut at such a young age will obviously be a great talent or they wouldnt be playing.

[ganeshran]

Thats not a given.

[Serani]

In a side like SA it is, maybe not so the lower ranked sides.

[ganeshran]

In a side like SA it is' date=' maybe not so the lower ranked sides.[/quote'] Anyone who makes his debut at a young age has great potential and not necessarily talent. Whether it is genuine talent or flash in the pan performances, only time can tell. Parnell made his debut at a young age, has gone nowhere

[prinzo]

He will be a great. Fast bowler, aussie just have new bowlers cummins and patterson and now SA has unleashed de lange. Just a thought! Wat has the rest of the cricket nations introducerd lately
