rkt.india Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Guys it's not just about selection (which was lame). At least IP tried to adjust to the pitch by bowling slower ones. The other three (Morkel included) seemed to have missed out on a very basic strategy. It's not enough to say "the pitch isn't good for us". You have to adjust. Then again, with a captain like Sehwag ("i just let them bowl freely") this isn't surprising. IP is a veteran in comparison to Aaron and Yadav. IP does not have pace so he mostly resort to slow balls. He was bowling slower balls even at seaming track of Dharamshala :haha:
vamos_rafa Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 and dont forget siddle vs gautam in tests it was just painful to watch our two gr8 openers playing against him and hilfy ;P hope people dont forget abt tht bcos of these ipl knocks specially abt sehwag with gambhir well atleast he was trying there and did get 80 odd some how This. They struggled like anything as openers in Oz against an attack which is not even great. I never had high hopes from Sehwag outside India, but Gambhir's technique has really taken a pounding it seems.
vishalvirsingh Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Sending venu and negi ahead of Taylor and Pathan was serious ****ing yes Taylor and pathan are far better than venu and negi ---why r they playing venu - he looks useless
Number Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Albie Morkel >> Malinga. Malinga is a brainless bowler.
Sehwag1830 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 This is not observation about 1 match. But both Umeash and Varun go for lots of run .Their ER is higher side . Bowl lots of ill directed short bowls.
express bowling Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I think DD were doing well and were looking to restrict them around 145 or so till 17 overs but last 3 overs changed every thing. I dont think Aaron bowled badly he was clear in his mind and was trying to bowl yorkets but it was just one of those days where he couldnt execute them well' date= normally he bowls good yorkers and then drop catch of Pathan cost them 14 runs in 3 balls. Spot on. :two_thumbs_up: It was more a problem of execution of plan than brainless bowling on the part of Aaron.

JourneyMan Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Talented as they are, there's no doubt that both of them need lots of coaching. It's up to the BCCI to make sure they get it. I'm not holding my breath.
youngindia Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 youngsters in our strongest dept batting are demonstrating immaturity ,despite five seasons of IPL-kohli,rohit,rayudu,jadeja,rahane and relatively less experienced youngsters in our weakest dept are supposed to adapt when more seasoned bowlers struggled?:hysterical: sorry its a long ride to be a established player.

Yeah, someone who is ranked in the top 10 ODI batsmen for the last 1.5 years is immature. BTW, what happened to the test future of Raina and Flathappa because they had matured and striking the ball? :icflove: Rayudu and Jadeja being mentioned along with Kohli, Rohit, and Rahane!
Vilander Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Lol. When you have someone like Dale Steyn spanked around like a school kid for 25 runs off one over, what chance does greenhorns like Yadav and Aaron have. However, it is very disturbing to see some of India's most promising young fast bowling talent being swatted around in some really flat pitches by some brutal hitters. Seeing somebody like Aaron drop his head in disappointment makes you wonder how much confidence this kid would have lost. Remember - Ishant was at his absolute peak and had the world at his feet when IPL 1 kickstarted. He got smashed around in that edition and subsequently, in some ODIs also and he has never been the same bowler. Hopefully, that same fate does not befall somebody like Yadav or Aaron. true, its pathetic.
rkt.india Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 This is not observation about 1 match. But both Umeash and Varun go for lots of run .Their ER is higher side . Bowl lots of ill directed short bowls. Aaron's ER is less than 7 in IPL matches he has played till now.

He is talking about IPL, not ODIs. Kohli suits to ODIs, not T20.

The Outsider Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 do i even bother replying to this troll?:haha: No you can continue trolling on maturity and striking of world beaters Jaddu and Flathappa!

Dravid is not ideally suited to T20' date=' so he is an immature batsman?[/quote'] You need maturity in every format. Look at what Kohli did in most IPL matches this year, even in their last league match. He was the last batting pair when they need 30 in 24 balls and he played a rash shot to try to hit a six when he could have done it with single doubles or a boundary here and there when he knew there is no specialist batsman after him. Different formats bring different mindsets.

rkt.india Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 So' date=' Dravid and Tendulkar are immature T20 batsmen?[/quote'] They haven't had such situation. I wont say immature even to Kohli. I would say they are not really suited to this format.
