Lord Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 We need at least one bowler who can have figures of 40-50 runs in 10 overs. In matches where 300+ is the norm' date=' those 20 extra runs make a lot of difference[/quote'] but hes not taking early wickets like he used to.even in NZ he was economical but struggled for wickets
rkt.india Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 but hes not taking early wickets like he used to.even in NZ he was economical but struggled for wickets BK is bowling well. He is complementing Shami well and they both have formed a good combo. He was unlucky yesterday when edges were not grabbed, has bowled well at death too. Need a good third seamer for Aaron and Pandey should be given proper chances.

Need a good third seamer for Aaron and Pandey should be given proper chances.[/quote'] I too like the new partnership between Shami and BK. They usually do their job, viz. to pick wickets early one. Did that in NZ as well. Our death bowling has been pretty decent too but what worries me is that we haven't got a good bowler to pick wickets in the middle overs. Had Aaron at least kept it tight, we could have got them under pressure. They were cruising at that stage.

They show maturity and can land in the right areas most of the time.

Aaron picked up early wicket in every match he played in NZ. Even Shami went for 84 runs in 10 overs at Auckland.

But both these guys are capable of producing absolute peach of deliveries. Keeping slips at the right distance, keeping right guys in the slips would have made their figures look better. But they distinctly show some progress.
