BlueBee Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 forget fast bowling ' date=' its unlikely we will produce a tearaway fast bowler anytime soon. Lets worry about spinners which we can produce; i am sure we can do better than jaddu and ashwin[/quote'] Fully agree with what rkt said! We've Aaron, Yadav and Shami. All are tearaway fast bowlers. Shami has always been an asset, Aaron was amazing in IPL and Yadav though lately performed well in IPL.
jf1gp_1 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Yadav' date=' Aaron, Shami all are tearaway fast bowlers who can bowl 90 mph and have touched even 150 both Yadav and Aaron. Tearaway pace isn't everything, but how they use that pace to their advantage.[/quote'] Akhar and lee were tearaway fast bowlers not yadav, aaron or shami. yes pace isnt everything and given how accurate yadav and aaron are i have given up. Here is how i see it, which indian bowler will be most effective in unfavorable conditions a spinner like mishra on english/sa/nz wicket or sami/bhuvan/yadav/aaron on a flat batting deck and i always would pick our spinner.

So, it means there were only 2 tearaway fast bowlers. Anyone who bowls over 145K is a tearaway fast bowler.

Austin 3:!6 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Srinath Zaheer Nehra. During 2003 wc. We had a world class bowling attack. Everyone of them were bowling 140 plus and basically we entered final because of our fast bowling and Sachin's batting. Agree
Vilander Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 India has never had a good fast bowling combo. Not that we don't have potential. But the Selectors and Captains were just letting them to sink into oblivion. how old were you during 2003 WC ?

Vilander Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 4 :P ok lets just trust you on that, in that series Indian fast bowling was amazing won matches on their won like Eng match, but failed in one match the final.
tweaker Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 What may be the reason selectors prefers Ishant over Umesh Yadav.If Umesh had got support from selectors he may have become spearhead of the Indian attack
MCcricket Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 tHE BEST I HAVE SEEN OUR ATTACK BOWL IS IN THE WORLD CUP zAK, nEHRA AND sRINATH, OTHERWISE SREESANT BOWLING WELL WITH zAHEER IN HIS PRIME AND mUNAF COULD BE THE BEST POTENTIALLY TALENT WISE BUT THAT DID NOT HAPPEN
BlueBee Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 ok lets just trust you on that' date=' in that series Indian fast bowling was amazing won matches on their won like Eng match, but failed in one match the final.[/quote'] I've seen the matches, they looked good but I never believed it was the best. We've had such bowler in recent times too. Shami, Bhuvi, Aaron, Yadav would be a much better bowling side IMPO.
yoda Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Tests - Irfan + Balaji, 2004 JLD series vs Pak ODIs - Srinath + Zak + Nehra, 2003 WC
ravishingravi Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 2003 WC. By million miles. It was probably best attack of the tournament. Pity they couldn't keep it together in finals.
CG Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 2003 WC. By million miles. It was probably best attack of the tournament. Pity they couldn't keep it together in finals. We are talking about test bowling attack.Nehra was a mediocore test bowler and zak was average then as test bowler.
CG Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Saddest part for me is we have with yadav,shami,aaron three of the most promising prospects ever in history of indian fast bowling and we are losing them.
cricketpitch Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 2006-2008 was the best period for Indian fast bowling. This was the time Zaheer had made a come back into the team. Sreesanth and RP Singh were bowling brilliantly. Started with series win in West Indies..test win in SA...Sree/Zaheer/Munna/RP/Pathan were all involved. India won T20 WC, Sree, Pathan and RP were brilliant for us. India won the test series in England, again it was Zaheer, RP and Sree. Won the Perth test match in 2008 RP and Ishant bowled brilliantly. Won the CB series in Australia....Ishant, Sree, Praveen Kumar bowled excellently to win the cup. Overall the best period for Indian fast bowling. Almost all the series were won by the fast men.
rkt.india Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 you are so correct for india to do well they need to play their two spinners plus 3 trundlers' date=' it means dhobi has suck up and score some runs at no 6.[/quote'] How many wickets those spinners have picked up overseas?
