Speeds and Performances of Pacers and Spinners


Recommended Posts

Bumrah is the only pacer from either side who has bowled lots of balls at 145 kph and 144 kph in the Test Series and ODI Series.

 

Apart from him, Jansen is the only other pacer who has touched 144 kph twice or thrice.

 

With Rabada, Siraj, Shami bowling too, and Prasidh in one match, it is not expected.

 

It is possible that Speed Gun readings have been a tad lower than actual on this tour.

Prasidh's almost all  6 slow balls bowling (well telegraphed)  will be fodder when proper batsmen play at the death. 

Bouncers & Slow bouncers , Yorkers & odd slower ones would be better option.

Even  fast yorkers zooming on into stumps round the wicket to a leftie and then wide slower very full pitched ball interspersed with wide yorkers should also work well when bowling to lefties.

Good luck smoking them if they are gripping.. Not easy especially when he hits it back of the length. 

Lining up Tall bowlers is a bit tricky compared to short bowlers due to High release points.  Although I do agree he has to mix it up a bit.  Bowled a good wide yorker to Pretorious that was squeezed for 4..

Prasidh did bowl some decent yorkers and attempted yorkers in his 7th and 8th overs.

 

Don't know why he stopped using them in his last 2 overs  !

 

One thing I feel ... if he knows that he is going to be backed in ODIs and will get a few games on the trot, he will express himself better and display his whole range of weapons. 

 

He has the stump directed yorker, the bouncer, the rising short ball, the hard length ball and the slower ball. Needs to be given the backing to use them freely and as per match situations.

Bunrah is the fastest from both sides. 

Ishant used to be good with until 2019. 

 

Aussies average pace;

Cummins 137

Hazelwood 136

Starc 142

 

So much for phaasst bowling. 

 

India;

Bumrah 138

Shami 136

Umesh 137

Thakur 130

 

Need to blood in saini, umran and tyagi maybe. 

 

S Africa:

Rabada 136

Olivier 130

Ngidi 133

Jansen 135

They are missing nortje for pace. 

 

England;

Wood basically the only true phasst bowler. But he has poor line and lengths so it doesn't matter. Lacks a killer bouncer. 

 

Pakistan;

Only one fast bowler

Shaheen afridi average speed 138. 

Naseem now is a 135 pacer. 

Dhahani not ready yet

 

New zeland;

Wagner 129

Kyle 134

Southee 132

Boult  133

 

Only lockie is phasst but he spends more time in the hospital than training.

 

It's tough to bowl phassst and stay injury free. 

 

 

Naseem has not turned into a 135 kph pacer. He was down on pace against nz because he had just recovered from covid.  His pace is back n he hit 150 kph multiple times in a recent domestic tourni. Anyhow he is still not ready for test cricket because his action needs slight tinkering. A season with Gloucestershire will help him this year.

Its incredible really because if you remove that  series vs Newzealand where Naseem was injured he'd top the list. Ive seen him bowl quicker than starc in australia and archer in england. Which at this stage of his career is a special skill in itself.

WI Series ----

 

ODI Pacers ---- Not bad

 

Prasidh

Siraj

Avesh

 

Shardul

Deepak

 

 

T20I Pacers ---- Too many trundlers 

 

Siraj

Avesh

 

Bhuvi. ......  Why again  ?  Why  ?

Shardul

Deepak 

Harshal 

 

 

4 Trundlers + 2 Quicks 

 

Big chance that we will see 3 trundlers play together with no quicks, like we saw against NZ.
