JourneyMan Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 No wonder all we ever produce are flabby spin bowlers who get owned anywhere outside the subcontinent. Why would anyone want to be a fast bowler on pitches like these. What a joke.
vvvslaxman Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Bit of a dampener today not playing on a true pitch. But it is same for both teams. So can't complain.
Executioner Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 I wont call it gay, if the bowlers cant land the ball in good areas how do u expect them to do well? Look at what kallis and balaji did.
saneindian Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Bangalore should be a true pitch and then back to Chennai on crappy tracks for the last 2 matches.
1983-2011 Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 so it becomes a poor pitch because so called phasht ballers didnt bowl well while pathan, kallis and balaji did a good job on it

bulbul Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 so it becomes a poor pitch because so called phasht ballers didnt bowl well while pathan' date=' kallis and balaji did a good job on it[/quote'] problem is Pathan bowls well once or twice in 7/8 matches :giggle:
Number Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Lol Balaji bowled just 2 overs. I'd like to see Pathan's bowling in death overs. Even village batsmen will thrash him like a rag-doll. Kallis is expirienced, much better bowler. But he bowled mainly to VenuGopal Rao. :phehehe:

JourneyMan Posted May 22, 2012 Author Posted May 22, 2012 Pathan was bowling at 117 kph And who on earth changed the title of the thread?

vvvslaxman Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Pitch was so slow actually. So faster they bowled faster it disappeared. Viru should have tried to bowl himself. Gauti intelligently covered all the bases. Kallis can be quick if not genuinely quick. He got two left arm spinner. A dibbly dobbly bowler, A great offie and a part time offie, One support medium pacer, One clever opening bowler.. he had so many guys to fall back on. Well organized unit. :hatsoff: Gauti Despite great records , gauti has better cricketing brain than Viru.
1983-2011 Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 why hate the pitch if the phasht ballers cant bowl well on it, would u call green tops gay aswell because it wouldnt help spinners
Laaloo Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Mumbai pitch is not bad either. This pitch sucked and the two pitches in chennai will suck just like Jaddu sucks

vvvslaxman Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 why hate the pitch if the phasht ballers cant bowl well on it' date=' would u call green tops gay aswell because it wouldnt help spinners[/quote'] Ball gripped a bit and stopped a bit which is not a good pitch irrespective of how badly DD bowled.
vvvslaxman Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 question is why these phassssst bolers didnt adjusted...they know from begining it wont help them I know. they are still rookies. They have a long way to go learn the art of fast bowling in T20. Their inexperience shown up today. Hope they learn from it and make the adjustments in the next match. Not the end of the world.
JourneyMan Posted May 22, 2012 Author Posted May 22, 2012 Agreed with VVS. Gambhir is definitely a better strategist than Sehwag, who isn't a strategist at all, and even the DhoniConda who misses basic tricks at times. He's making a strong case for captaincy here.
