did Nattu touch 141K ever?

 

bcos in tests , I saw him between 127K to 136k and most of the time between 130k to 135k.

 

if he can get most of his deliveries between 135 to 142K...He would become a demon bowler.

 

SIraj got a fifer in the last test match second innings. I noticed that he bowled a lot of balls between 135 to 142 K in the last Match second innings. he was hurrying up batsman and he is already 10 on 10 on Line n length so he became a big Success.

 

I see Bumrah, Siraj and Shardul playing in the first Test against England with 2 spinners. Ishant may sit on the bench. Siraj could be picked ahead of Ishant. Shardul could play ahead of Hardik as Hardik is not bowling.

Nattu was was mostly 127 k to 134 k in the test match ... but bowled an one off 141 k in in the 3rd ODI

 

Even in the T20 series he was mostly between 130 k to 136 k

 

One off 141K can be ignored or it shows possibility that he can improve.

 

he is a highly Skilled bowler with his skillset coming as close to BHuvi but he has to improve his Speed.

 

I am most eager to watch his line length and Speed in T20 matches ( as he will play T20) as that could suggest if he is focusing to improve his pace or not. 

 

As per my best judgement ,  he can be a  T20 bowler for India and if he improves he can play for INDIA in ODI Internationals. I don't see that he should be picked for Tests.

Nattu can be a good T20 bowler.

 

I prefer an upfront wicket taker cum fast bowler in ODIs ... like Shami.

Rabada has still not regained his pace after that stress fracture back in 2018 . Hasnt clocked a single ball at 90 mph and average pace of 135 kph or so. 

 

This is what happens when you dont manage the workloads of a young bowler. CSA bowled him into ground in all 3 formats.

Rabada did bowl 150+ in IPL, but perhaps not willing to go flat out in Tests.

 

Nortje, whose top speed in IPL was 156 kmph with so many deliveries over 150 kmph, is averaging 140 kmph here with a top speed of 148 kmph, similar speeds to what I have seen Rabada bowl in Tests in SA.
