bhumika Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Have seen prasad, dodda ganesh, vinay kumar from karantaka. Dont cite just the pakistan match to say good things about prasad i have seen him getting spanked by jayasuriya so many times.
bhumika Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 what about Srinath? he is the only good one.
The Dark Horse Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 No, it's the birthplace of the fastest ever bowler from the country
yoda Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Yes, rest of the country however has produced world beating fast bowlers. :hahaha:

Dont cite just the pakistan match to say good things about prasad i have seen him getting spanked by jayasuriya so many times.[/quote'] Didn't know Praveen Kumar was from Karnataka :cantstop: . Probably the "trundlest" bowler i have seen with average speed of 125k.
Desi Cartman Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 And which India state has produced a real phast boiler ?
asterix Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 And which India state has produced a real phast boiler ? Nagpur, Maharashtra... :nice:
Akash_Cric Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 We need to be honest, the people int he Southern parts of our country arent strong enough to be good fast bowlers. Punjab is hub that has produced the most numbers of quality cricketers
Ranvir Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Well Srinath was from Karnataka. I would to have loved to have seen speed guns in wide use when he bowled at his peak. He was the second fastest bowler after Akhtar in the 1999 WC. Faster than Donald, Akram, Younis, Klusener, Gough, McGrath. That was after his major shoulder injury as well. So in his peak he would have bowled over 150 numerous times. I got his autograph on the 1996 tour to England, he was a really nice guy, maybe too nice for a fast bowler. Even on that day against Minor County Association he looked really fast and clean bowled a few of their players.
panther Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Srinath 150+ :hysterical: srinath was your modern day dinda can get the ball up to 147 but mostly 137 or so.

bhumika Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 Where is the OP from?. Thats not the point. I just don't understand how these bowlers get selected. Is this just quota ? and hey this is a cricket forum not some american football forum.

bhumika Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 Srinath 150+ :hysterical: srinath was your modern day dinda can get the ball up to 147 but mostly 137 or so. And who is pak's fastest bowler now ?
gaurav92 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Didn't know Praveen Kumar was from Karnataka :cantstop: . Probably the "trundlest" bowler i have seen with average speed of 125k. And with that kind of a physique, 125k is a serious joke :hysterical:
vvvslaxman Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Thats not the point. I just don't understand how these bowlers get selected. Is this just quota ? and hey this is a cricket forum not some american football forum. Don't think Irfan Pathan is express either. His average speed is lower than Vinay kumar's speed. Ishant has better speeds. But his record is appalling at test level. So is Agarkar's record. Apart from Zaheer for a brief period every seamer we have tried are crappy or couldn't sustain longer. It is nothing to do with region. It is to do with entire country. How many fast bowlers were produced by Bengal or Hyderabad or Madhyapradesh or Gujarat?
