gakgupta Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Need to see Pandey outside Indore in 1 match. He looked good that match but they were helpful conditions. Not that helpful....same match zaheer and ajit could hardly do anything..
CG Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Not that helpful....same match zaheer and ajit could hardly do anything.. Zaheer got a 5 wicket haul and nayar seemed unplayable on last day.
Old guy Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Zaheer got a 5 wicket haul and nayar seemed unplayable on last day. nayar is atg at that level :P
Cevno Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Not that helpful....same match zaheer and ajit could hardly do anything.. Huh ? Agarkar took a 3fer first innings and ZAK took a 5fer last innings leading Mumbai to the win. Even Nayar took 3 wickets in both innings.
CG Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 nayar is atg at that level :P he bowled wide outside offstump and cut the flow of runs and got some good wickets in the end. Loved his passion .
gakgupta Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Zaheer got a 5 wicket haul and nayar seemed unplayable on last day. Zaheer was bowling to a weaker batting attack...

rkt.india Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Zaheer got a 5 wicket haul and nayar seemed unplayable on last day. Comparing Mumbai (one of the strongest batting unit) batting to MPs, one of the worst batting unit.
Cevno Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Comparing Mumbai (one of the strongest batting unit) batting to MPs' date=' one of the worst batting unit.[/quote'] Yeah, but gakgupta said that he did Hardly anything.
rkt.india Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Yeah' date=' but gakgupta said that he did Hardly anything.[/quote'] In the first innings.
Cevno Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 In the first innings. He said that match. Anyway, Pandey was very good first innings but disappointed me a little in the second. First innings pitch was helpful for both attacks, but Pandey was the best bowler.
vamos_rafa Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I would pick Shami. More pace and more accurate. Kuma is too slow and we have seen so many such Indian bowlers turn into trundlers once they play for 1+ years.

Kuma is too slow and we have seen so many such Indian bowlers turn into trundlers once they play for 1+ years. BK looks more fit though. He was easily bowling 10 overs on the trot even in a place like Kochi which is extremely hot and humid and even today bowled 10 overs almost on the trot. He will pick up his pace as he gets older. Srinath also had a thin frame like him when he started out but went to become a pace bowler who could clock 140+ consistently and even hit 150.

Srinath also had a thin frame like him when he started out but went to become a pace bowler who could clock 140+ consistently and even hit 150. Srinath's pace was always on the higher side though. Even with that thin frame of his, he generated good pace. BK is better maybe at bowling longish spells, but once the swing gets over, which is more likely to happen in tests, then you need either skills or pace to be effective and that's where I think Shami Ahmed is ahead.
Lord Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Kumar for me,got more swing both ways n decent pace.but Shami is great too
saneindian Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Shami looks ready for test cricket now and am sure will be making his debut vs the Aussies. Bhuvanesh will have to wait for sometime before playing test cricket. For the shorter formats, guess both of them have booked their slot in the starting 11 for the next few series (CT, tri series in WI etc).

But, or kaptaan selectors can have all sorts of brain farts and sideline him.
Number Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 ^ If Umesh is not fit, Shami's chances are good. Don't think Jokersanth will get selected again.
vamos_rafa Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 ^ If Umesh is not fit' date=' Shami's chances are good. Don't think Jokersanth will get selected again.[/quote'] Any links on Umesh's fitness updates? Would be a neccesity in tests against Oz.
