Dinda is a good pick. He has been prolific domestically and has bowled at 140kph and crucially' date=' he swings the ball. Swing is a skill which can get you wickets anywhere. Dinda is probably not Test standard, but he is definitely zonal standard, imo.[/quote'] true

It is more a case of talented bowlers like Mohanty and Dinda going undeveloped. I think a county could certainly train Mohanty to add at the very least 5kph to his bowling and same for Dinda. I remember when RP Singh came to England to play county cricket, they worked on strengthening his landing leg and this give him a bit more pace during 2007, which he used to support Zaheer in Tests against England and spearhead India in the World T20. RP Singh was often over 140kph in the World T20 and also in the 2007 ODI series against Australia. People are very keen to look at 'talent' as meaning 'pace' but the ability to swing the ball both ways is a talent too. Mohanty is a very talented bowler, you do not dominate domestic cricket without talent. I think England would have made a very good bowler out of him.

Exactly the bowlers are not improving, fitness pace, technique and stagnating, but Mohanty is beyond slow he bowls at 115 k, ECB AND Autralia has been good in identifying good bowlers early and developing them into international class pacers, Aniket Choudhury, Suyal, Anwar Ahmed, and atleat 10 bowlers I can name are better and have some hope of being int class, why waste time and have this very mediocre attacks ruin the game

How did Mandeep play rkt? 40 not out right now returning from injury. Mohit Sharma is in north zone :hmmm: Can be considered for RISS if he shows talent.
Paliwal looked better than him. He does not look calm at the crease at all. He reacts to deliveries like bowlers are throwing hand granades at him. He makes Mohanty look like a Steyn and Dinda a Brett Lee.

South India has a pretty strong batting lineup where everyone is in form. Mukund, Baba Aparajith, L Rahul, Manish Pandey, Akshath Reddy. Bowling doesn't seem weak too with Ojha in there.

Where did you see him bat? He averaged 50 plus last season with the bat.
Isnt that him who just got out ? No idea how he averaged 50 , but looked clueless against both the spinners
