Speeds and Performances of Pacers and Spinners

This combination of Bumrah, Prasidh and Chahar is looking good in ODIs.

 

Bumrah with his extra pace and yorkers, Prasidh with his extra bounce at pace and Deepak with his swing.

 

If we had a trundler in Place of Prasidh, the attack would have become innocuous.

 

At least 2 quick pacers are a must even in white ball cricket.

Next series Avesh Khan should be bowling with Prasidh and Chahar.

Bumrah should be rested

Bumrah, Prasidh, Siraj, as first choice quicks is blindingly obvious to me.

 

Chahar is a release bowler, same as Bhuvi. Do not be fooled by his wickets here and there.

 

With Pandya's bowling gone and batting shaky, we need better seam AR options.

 

 

Exactly ! 

 

Deepak is no long term or even medium term solution.

 

He looks very innocuous when the ball stops moving and he is very floaty.

 

Siraj should be there in his place.

 

We just need an off spinner or wrist spinner who can bat at 8.

 

7. Jadeja / Axar

8. Spinner who can bat a bit.

9. Bumrah

10. Prasidh

11. Siraj

 

Can be deadly.

 

Sticking with Ashwin at 8 can be done for the time being for this reason.

Inclusion of Siraj would make this attack even better but it's just that Bumrah, Prasidh and Siraj can't bat. 

 

Also our specialist spinner prospects are all noobs with the bat. 

Can't have 4 tailenders.

The next world cup is in India, it would be a bad move if we go without a specialist spinner. 

We need a good spinner but yeah we don't have many options as of now so going with Jaddu Ashwin at 7 - 8 or even Jaddu Axar at 7-8 could be an okay move.

Yes, an all round relentless attack is always more than the sum of its parts. The batsman gets no release, he cannot wait out the tough bowlers. The whole mindset gets messed up.

 

Right now, I have no doubt bowling with the likes of Bhuvi and Chahar diminishes Bumrah's effectiveness.

 

 

Agree totally !

Ashwin and Jadeja / Axar would be 2 specialist spinners.

 

Given the fact that we haven't yet found anyone who is clearly better, this may not be too bad if we want a relentless pace attack.

 

Have always wondered whether it's possible to play Jadeja and Axar together in ODIs. Don't know if the TM would actually play 2 LAO spinners together.

If we wanna play 2 spin allrounders then we should rather play Jadeja and Axar, coz atleast both can hit boundaries and Axar is very difficult to hit. 

 

If we play these two then I won't really be sure about our spin bowling performance but atleast our pace bowling would be great, I mean Bumrah, Siraj, Prasidh/Shami is a really good pace unit.

It's largely true.

 

As Ashwin's SR and hitting ability has increased in recent times, he maybe ok at 8. Let's see.

 

Jadeja / Axar are quite ok.at 7

Personally, I don't mind at all as we don't have any ready strike bowlers among spinners for LOIs.

True.

 

I really want the TM to develop Prasidh as his extra bounce would pose a very different threat to the opposition. Lining up 3 pacers, with different bounce levels, won't be easy.

 

Give Prasidh a lot of games on the trot and let him settle down.
