Saini, in the worst day of his short international career, when he went at 8.5 runs per over ... is still not the most expensive pacer ... and is saved by Shardul, who went at 9.5 runs per over.

 

Shardul gave away 87 runs from 9.1 overs and missed his century by just 13 runs.

 

 

Seriously though, all our Pacers have performed poorly this series. Bumrah included. I don't know how we are going to pick wickets in the test matches with our bowlers in such poor form. Hopefully the red ball brings good luck.

We will bowl with more intensity in tests. I will be very surprised if we don't.

Let's hope so. 

But letting the last match slip from 197/8 and failing to get wickets again in this match is really disappointing. I really doubt if Saini will get a break in the test matches even if Ishant stays injured. It will be Bumrah, Shami and Umesh with either Jadeja or Ashwin.

Prasidh took 2 wickets for just 7 runs from 6 overs in the first innings ... as Karnataka dismissed Baroda for just 85.

 

Bowled with pace, bounce, accuracy, outswing and seam movement both ways.

 

It was a good start after his comeback.

 

 

good stuff from prasidh, I can only watch highlights.

 

but it will be really difficult to break into national team. It's not 90's/00's that anyone with some promise can get in. The team already has some of the best indian pace bowlers of all time playing for it.

Prasidh can and should debut via ODIs. This is his strongest format   ... and the easiest format for any young pacer to debut in.

 

We have 3 ODIs vs SA coming up after the test series vs NZ.

 

Rest Bumrah for this series. He needs it after this gruelling tour.

 

Play Prasidh, Shami and Saini as the 3 quicks.

If I may add to my earlier post ... most of our LOI bowlers are skiddy ones, apart from Bumrah who gets natural bounce along with skid off the pitch.

 

Someone like Prasidh, with his height and steep bounce at high pace, would add a different dimension to our attack.
