Vijay.Sharma Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Now they'll keep playing him for another 20 Tests because he picked up a 4-fer in one innings of a Test after 20 Tests His previous 4-fer came against England at Lord's in 2011 - 17 Tests earlier.

Vijay.Sharma Posted December 28, 2013 Author Posted December 28, 2013 Has there ever been a worse international frontline bowler than Ishant Sharma in the 135 year history of Test cricket? I can think of Mohammed Sami of Pakistan. Among bowlers (not the part time bowlers) who have played at least 25 Tests and taken at least 100 wickets, is there a worse bowler? He definitely has pictures of Dhoni, Fletcher, and the selectors in compromising positions (mighta been an orgy going on there) to be afforded so many chances
Zanjeer Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 He is hitting the seam..to be honest, I'm surprised he is doing it. I think he is getting better.

He definitely has pictures of Dhoni, Fletcher, and the selectors in compromising positions (mighta been an orgy going on there) to be afforded so many chances The long rope leading to Dhoni's bedroom says hi. It's even worse as the Retard has played 50 tests and instead of improving has progressively got worse but as he provides extracurricular services to Dhoni all is forgiven.
Vijay.Sharma Posted December 28, 2013 Author Posted December 28, 2013 Among pure bowlers he is better than Nicky Boje, Mohd Rafique, Ashley Giles, Doug Wright, and John Emburey.

The Outsider Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Embury will be taken down in this match. By the English tour should be threatening Boje.

StriKe Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Is he worst to play 50 tests? How about this
Vijay.Sharma Posted December 28, 2013 Author Posted December 28, 2013 Is he worst to play 50 tests?He needs to beat Giles and Emburey
Lord Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 He gives his best everytime he plays. That doesnt mean he deserves his place
SLICKR392 Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 He gives his best everytime he plays. So does Dinda.
vvvslaxman Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Ishant is a pitch dependent bowler more than the most fast bowlers. That is why he occasionally looks like he is a great bowler. There is no consistency.
StriKe Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 wait why doesn't my screenshot doesn't have any players from land of phassst ?
saneindian Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 He gives his best everytime he plays. :hysterical: ye churaya hua post hai
