rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 The ideal is that the pace bowlers learn to thrive on these flat wickets through yorkers' date=' changes of pace, reverse swing and well aimed bouncers...but it would seem that is not happening. It takes less skill to thrive on a greentop, the ever-so-hated trundlers can thrive if the ball is seaming all over the place. The positive of flat pitches is that it allows us to see who the truly skilled bowlers are...the negative is that the answer seems to be 'no one'.[/quote'] you need pace to bowl yorkers and bouncers especially where ball does not even carry to keeper. Reverse is likely to happen at pace.
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 NEW DELHI: The game was there for the taking for Delhi on the fourth day against Odisha in their Ranji Trophy Group B tie at the Ferozeshah Kotla on Monday. To the team management's relief, Delhi completed the formalities with no hiccups, with the Shikhar Dhawan-led side pocketing a much-needed 10-wicket win. With four wickets in hand, a 13-over old ball and just a 41-run lead, Odisha were always up against it. The Delhi pacers, led by left-arm seamer Pawan Suyal, laid the platform for Delhi to pick up seven points from the match. The openers didn't disappoint, knocking over the 82-run target in 15 overs. Barely 20 minutes after lunch, the team was relaxing in the dressing room with a bonus point in their kitty. Dhawan himself took liking to the deflated Odisha attack, smacking 55 off 49 balls with nine fours and a six. Knowing the importance of a victory with a bonus point after defeat to Uttar Pradesh last week, Suyal and Parvinder Awana bowled with hostility on a bare wicket and didn't let the tail wag. While Awana, bowling round the stumps for most of his spell, softened up the batsmen by targeting the rib cage, Suyal induced the edges with skipper Natraj Behera (45) falling first. Bowling with an umbrella shaped slip cordon at one point, Suyal returned with figures of 5/93. Nehra, Bhatia return for Baroda match The Delhi team management conceded they were worried with the performances of the relatively young side. With Baroda on the platter next, they will be boosted by the return of experienced pros like Ashish Nehra and Rajat Bhatia for Round Three starting from Friday. Yogesh Nagar, too, makes a comeback from injury. The squad: Shikhar Dhawan (captain ), Unmukt chand, Mohit Sharma, Mithun Manhas, Yogesh Nagar, Rajat Bhatia, Ashish Nehra, Punit Bisht (wk), Sumit Narwal, Parvinder Awana, Manan Sharma, Vikas Mishra, Pawan Suyal, Pradeep Sangwan, Milind Kumar. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/domestic-cricket/ranji-trophy/Ranji-Trophy-Delhi-bag-much-needed-bonus-point/articleshow/17201181.cms
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Suyal gets five, Delhi all seven Since featuring against Mumbai in the 2010-11 Ranji Trophy season, a knee injury had kept Pawan Suyal out of First-Class cricket. Returning to the Delhi lineup against Orissa, there must have been a lot of doubts in the 23-year-old left arm seamerÃÔ mind whether he would last the distance, whether he would repay the faith of his team management, who had picked him in place of Pradeep Sangwan. He neednÃÕ have worried. In the first innings, he had picked up three wickets. He followed that up with five in the second innings as Delhi wrapped up a ten-wicket win and took all seven points. SuyalÃÔ displays in both innings reflected his skill at using the conditions during the morning session. In the first innings, he took the new ball and scalped two wickets in the first hour, with perfectly pitched inswingers his most trusted weapon. On Monday, Suyal showed he could bowl the other one too. First victim was skipper Natraj Behera, who edged to keeper Bisht. Biplab Samantray went in similar fashion, nicking to first slip. The tail didnÃÕ resist for too long; Suyal sent back Deepak Behera and Basant Mohanty with successive deliveries, both of which provided Unmukt Chand catching practice at third slip. ŵhe ball wasnÃÕ moving around too much, so I tried to keep the batsmen on the backfoot with the short ball and then surprise them with the out-going delivery. Bowling alongside Sumit Narwal and Awana is a huge boost as they know how to get batsmen out, and guide me all the time. And the two matches that I played in the CK Nayudu Trophy helped me gain some momentum before the Ranji. It was very satisfying, especially after sitting at home, nursing an injury for so long. http://www.indianexpress.com/news/suyal-gets-five-delhi-all-seven/1030678/2
Pagalpanti Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Has an impressive record so far in the few games he's played. Is he pacy? Also India badly needs a left armer, other reserves being Unadkat, Sangwan dont give much hope.
Number Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 He looks really short, somewhere around 5'8''. Not promising imo.
India-KXIP fan Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 He looks really short' date=' somewhere around 5'8''. Not promising imo.[/quote'] 5'8? Has to be a trundler.
Old guy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 5'8? Has to be a trundler. wow u stil here? after the latest duck i thought u will run away for weeks :hysterical:
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 5'8? Has to be a trundler. Malinga 5'8" not a trundler. Agarkar 5'7" not a trundler. Tino best and Fidel Edwards similar heights not trundlers.
Old guy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Malinga 5'8" not a trundler. Agarkar 5'7" not a trundler. Tino best and Fidel Edwards similar heights not trundlers. whats yadav's height?
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I think their next match against Baroda at Kotla will be live.
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 whats yadav's height? 5'9" ...not tall by any means..
SLICKR392 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 wow u stil here? after the latest duck i thought u will run away for weeks :hysterical: :hysterical: He is holding onto how Bhaji outsmarted Ojha in a domestic game. :giggle:
Old guy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 5'9" ...not tall by any means.. yes..its more about fitness and built then height..yadav looks taller then 5.9 to me.. ishantis tall ,pankaj is tall we can have good mix of fast bowlers ..
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 pace does not come from height, but from fast twitch muscle fibers. Unless, we see him we cannot say how quick he bowls but because he is a left armer and can swing the ball, he doesnot need to be 90 mph.
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 yes..its more about fitness and built then height..yadav looks taller then 5.9 to me.. ishantis tall ,pankaj is tall we can have good mix of fast bowlers .. Yadav is an inch or two shorter than Aaron while Aaron is about same or an inch shorter than Pathan and Pathan is an inch shorter than Zak who is exactly 6 feet. Yusuf is 6'1".
BeautifulGame Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I think their next match against Baroda at Kotla will be live. But will he be preferred over Sangwan with Nehra coming back into the team? Delhi even preferred Sangwan over Awana for 1 st match :banghead:
Old guy Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Yadav is an inch or two shorter than Aaron while Aaron is about same or an inch shorter than Pathan and Pathan is an inch shorter than Zak who is exactly 6 feet. Yusuf is 6'1". damn :cantstop: about 90 mph ,,its useless without control and movement .. thats why i lovedp ankaj's performance so much pace was good enough but he was accurate ad got good shape :(( ishant is ill now i thought pankaj would be better back up then dinda but selectors :wall:
saneindian Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 His talent has never been in doubt , its the poor fitness record that has hurt his progress so far. Needs to stay fit and play the entire season. Hopefully ESPN Star will show the Delhi vs Baroda game in round 3. Lots of exciting talent to look forward to - Awana, Suyal, Bhaja, Vohra, Chand etc

A fast bowler how quick he is need to have decent control and should be able to move the ball as well to consistently successful. Movement is about seam. Good seam position means, one can get movement.
