Old guy Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 lol its not like Yadav will run thru a side on these pitches,the max he do is 1-2 wickets or tailenders.even Irfan can do that.I'm not sure 1-2 wickets per match is good for his confidence anyway. in this match both his wickets were with attacking shots.n its NZ.Aus,Eng are gonna hammer him too. instead he can go on A tours n learn how to take wickets in foreign conditions,get more confidence n be ready wen we tour abroad.while we beat opposition wit our spinners n long batting lineup. remember west indies ? :winky: Link to comment
1983-2011 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Irfan as test batsman > Rohit' date=' Raina for most conditions.[b'] But as far as bowling goes , he has to prove at the domestic level. Let him focus on ODIs for the time being. Even if he returns he will at best be a support bowler not a main bowler. Besides that, it is not wise to play 3 seamers in Indian conditions. You would rather go with 3 spinners. Preferably a leggie. last year, he took 21 wickets in 5 Ranji Elite matches at 19.04 with sr of 42. Link to comment
Lord Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 remember west indies ? :winky: yeah west indies n new zealand,both mighty teams Link to comment

Lord Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 its the way u get wickets.. fast outswingers with new ball ... and reverse swing with old will trouble anybatsman but slower balls of pathan wont yeah but is it worth for 1-2 wickets per test?slower balls of Pathan were better than phaast Yadav outswingers in Lanka recently.I know tests r different,but Pathan offers a lot more all round Link to comment

Lord Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 in next match ashwin wont get 12 and like today it will come to fast bowlers to break set partnership...and there would be many wickets to take.. same ashwin ,ojha played against west indies still umesh got wickets right ? yeah because it was WI.n its not like we wouldnt have won or taken 20 wickets without his wickets. our spinners can bowl with new ball as well.n if they dont get wickets Yadav wont too bcoz there r two kinds of wickets in India-flat n turners.not gonna help seamers.I dont see anyone except Zak getting more than 2-3 wickets a game against a decent side anyway,so wats the point?

Ultimate_Game Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Don't fix what ain't broke. In odis 7 batsmen formula works for us and in Tests the 4 bowlers and 6 batsmen is the way to go. Link to comment
Lord Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 :cantstop: nah if he is not 100 percent then dont risk him by playing who isnt 100% Link to comment
Old guy Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 who isnt 100% zaheer... he can break anytime.. Link to comment
Lord Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 zaheer... he can break anytime.. yeah.we need him against big series like Eng,Aus only.no ODIs,no T20s,no tests against weak teams Link to comment
Old guy Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 yeah.we need him against big series like Eng' date='Aus only.no ODIs,no T20s,no tests against weak teams[/quote'] also if we are gonna play just one bowler.. i honestly believe yadav is perfect he can bowl longer spells then zaheer.. and until now in all tests he has shown one thing tht he is wicket taker so if we are ognna play 1 fast bowler i will play fit wicket taker who can leak runs as spinners here can always pull run rate back Link to comment
Ultimate_Game Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 zaheer... he can break anytime.. Zaheer will never be 100% :haha: Link to comment
Old guy Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Zaheer will never be 100% :haha: why play half fit old bowler when u have super fit youngta beauty who gets wicket everytime :--D Link to comment
