Ahmed Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Wickets against Pakistan should not count really so nothing speciall. We are used to it now. A 19-for or 20-for in the match is the only good effort I will applaud.

Cricketics Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 I think they will pick him in in Pakistan cricket league(PCL) for Abbotabad Lions team.
zep1706 Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Need to see more of him, didn't look extraordinary to me. Can't argue with the debut figures though.
Old guy Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 lol Steyn bowled bananas at offstump in that match. Abbott bowled well ofcourse.but not that well.a 7 fer implies absolutely amazing bowling.I'm just saying it wasnt that level and pathetic batting helped him he got swing yes,but most of deliveries on which he took wickets were outside off and could have been left .or they played horrendous shots like Hafeez or Irfan. I think the novelty factor worked for him.lets see how he goes against better lineups no they wont he was getting nip and movement away steyn's way is not the only way to get 7 wicket haul..wickets are wickets same batsmen got out also this track was much less helpfl and steyn did not get any swing like that actually abbot and steyn both got equal swing
ganeshran Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 LOLed at Ehsan Adil and Irfan's dismissal
Magneto Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 LOLed at Ehsan Adil and Irfan's dismissal Did you hit the stadium today?
saneindian Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Paul Harris said Abott has lost about 10 KGs in last 12 months and took 50 wickets @15 in the ongoing season! Some dedication that.

shuraim Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 he bowled wicket wicket to which tuk tuk masters could not leave,which is their style of play
Ultimate_Game Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 He didn't look that special... didn't move the ball that much, not much seam movement either and not too fast as well. He simply kept it around off and Pak batsmen gave catching practice to slips. Most of the batsmen looked like they had no idea where their off stump was.
Pagalpanti Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Idk if its the pitches or what but SA keep bringing up these bowlers Didnt they have a certain MD Lange? Who also got 5-fer on his debut vs SL.

Vilander Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 His first and last 5-for ever. why do you say that dude, is he really a other f'n demon bowler from SA that we have to contend with or did your bats played pathetically...?? want to know i did not see the match..
Vilander Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 LOLed at Ehsan Adil and Irfan's dismissal how does this abbott guy look, as in an other million $ ?? for gods sake too much for SA now..
panther Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 why do you say that dude' date=' is he really a other f'n demon bowler from SA that we have to contend with or did your bats played pathetically...?? want to know i did not see the match..[/quote'] he looks 30+ but is 25 pace 133 average top speed 140 tall, get's a bit of movement but the last 4 batsman were giving slip practice ajmal,adil,sarfaraz and irfan.
rkt.india Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 some rubbish batting by Pak. There was not a single wicket on an unplayable ball. He was bowling out side off and they were fishing. Pitch is also very unpredictable. Bowl straight and wickets will come.
rkt.india Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Simple question did steyn move ball much? Steyn bowls leg breaks at 135-140k, which even Shane Warne would be proud of.
Texan Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 SA seem to be picking bowlers out of thin air that make an immediate impact... and a huge one! Philander De Lang Now this guy - Abbott.
