Tiger80 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 What's wrong with Malinga ? Looks he has forgotten all his deadly yorkers
Tiger80 Posted May 1, 2013 Author Posted May 1, 2013 He bowled a few the last game. Yeah even PK hit him for many runs
Detonator Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Dhoni demoralised him in last year eliminator.. he haven't recovered since then..
Detonator Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 He's somewhat overrated if you ask me kinda... he used to be the best in T20 for some time.. he is out of form nd never gonna get back..
Old guy Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 that ban on sri lankan players in chennai might have effected him badly :( i dont think he is feeling at home :((
Zelig Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 With an action like that, he has to be in rhythm all the time which he has not been for more than six months now. Outta form :om:
mhr123 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 he bowled well against KKR and they are the bench mark in IPL.
Ezilkannan Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Like someone mentioned above, he is more predictable nowadays.
G_B_ Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 there is nothing wrong with his economy rate but wickets have been an issue. Kulkarni has currently more wickets than him in his edition of the IPL
I6MTW Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 He's become Kohli's ***** these days. So Kohli has shown everybody on how to bat against Malinga. So he needs to reinvent himself. At his prime he was unplayable.
SLICKR392 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 90% of his deliveries used to be yorkers in T20. Uses a lot of variations now.
rkt.india Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Only if it was so easy to bowl yorkers. Yorker takes a lot of practice and effort to bowl. It takes a toll on body too especially on back and hamstring. He is already struggling with his back. He is using his slower balls more nowadays.
Square Drive Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 He's finished. Not fit enough to go through his bowling action these days. As Ian Bishop pointed out sometimes he almost stop just before the delivery stride (when preparing for the side-arm angle). And looks like a 40-year-old. Could' have had 3/4 years more if he was a really committed and determined lion like Vaasy. Never a big fan after retired from test cricket :headshake:
Jersey #10 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Gregg Chappel asked him to become a batting allrounder? :dontknow:
21cent Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Wasn't he injured in the beginning of this season? Might not be fully recovered. I dont think he has lost his ability, he was dominating in the BBL in Aus took like 6/7in one of the matches a while back. It is probably the only 6-fer in T20 and the best figures.
