Cevno Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Drop them please from both the ODI and Test squads pls. Let Ishant play domestic cricket regularly for a season or 2 and maybe send him to England or somewhere else to play some. And Dinda well, maybe he can be sent too, but he is pretty mediocre right now.
Old guy Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 how can some one stay so crap for so long! :(( specially when u showed so much potential at start...i dont think any one has wasted talent like him
yoda Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I would recycle guys like RPS or Munaf or Irfan instead of playing Ishant. Dinda however deserves more chances before being dropped.

Has the Physical attributes to be a very good bowler and also decent skill level, but just doesn't have the mental nous to take wickets and know where and what to ball. Beats bat 2 times in Tests and gets all frustrated. Has been told time and again to pitch it up and work on his seam position but hasn't improved either too.

In what form ? Frankly, i don't know on what basis he was selected for anything other than T20 anyway. He is a mediocre domestic bowler even.

NareshK Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Ishant's problem is he is really, really dumb. Its common sense that on a slow wicket like the one today, if you bang it in short, the ball will sit up nice and easy for the batsmen to play shots and yet, he keeps bowling short at least once or twice in an over. If someone who has played international cricket for 5+ years doesnt understand this, nothing much can be said. He is not smart enough to get top class batsmen out despite having the potential to be a great bowler.
Cevno Posted January 15, 2013 Author Posted January 15, 2013 The difference between him and Shami was seam position and length. Ishant bowls short with a wayward seam. He just needed to sort these 2 things out since he burst onto the scene. Hasn't improved either. Just got quicker but that alone is of no use.

NareshK Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Bring Sreesanth for Ishant Sreesanth cant be any better in ODIs. He doesnt have good control.
Vivek.S.123 Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Sreesanth cant be any better in ODIs. He doesnt have good control. He can nip, seam and swing it way more than Ishant at a decent pace
NareshK Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 He can nip' date=' seam and swing it way more than Ishant at a decent pace[/quote'] On flat pitches, I have seen him go for plenty but in helpful conditons, I agree that he could be a handful. Has he played enough cricket after his comeback from injury ?
