Did I talk about express pace of 145 k+ ?

 

I said 140 k+.which is basically sharp.

 

These speed guns are not that precise.

 

A 138 k ball on a speed gun could well register 140 k or 141 k on the high speed cameras which give precise speed readings.

 

More than the exact speed gun readings, my point was about attacking the stumps at pace. Hurrying batsmen visually. And that is what happened in 4 of the 5 dismissals.

Well, the point is that those balls are not even 140+, and it is debatable if the speed gun is wrong. I have made my point based on what you said, If you choose to say you meant something else, then so be it. We are in sync then.

Ishant doint the perfect thing on this pitch. Bowling at a consistent pace and trying to trap batsmen lbw. Excellent bowling. he has been the best fast bowler in this match

My point was about attacking the stumps at sharp pace. This is the style used more often on sluggish and lowish pitches. 

 

As opposed to bowling channel balls and away going deliveries. This style is usually used on pitches with a bit of carry and zip. If this style is used on slow and low pitches then the edges may not carry. Less chance of hitting the splice of the bat too.

 

2 different styles of bowling.

 

I think you know what I was talking about.

Why is Bumrah not being given the ball at all ????

[Indwin]

Why bumrah hasn't bowled yet?

[Mosher]

So many no balls

[Rightarmfast]

Ishant bowling beautifully. This is high class bowling. Shaping the ball in, and then dodging the batsman with a straightish delivery to trap lbw. This is absolutely top notch bowling. 

Compare it with the mediocre Anderson who's been bowling with as much brain as a bird, in the same lengths and style one would do in England. Ishant is high class.

[Rightarmfast]

Bumrah following Ishant. Bowling excellent. That was as close as it gets. Almost had Root.

[Rightarmfast]

Deadly over by Bumrah! Looked like every ball was wicket taking. And no surprise that it was the length and the channel he followed.

[Forward Defence]

India have bowled 25 no balls in this match so far. England just 1. What's up with that?

Bumrah traps Root LBW with a sharp reverse swinging indipper.

 

Great ball. !

 

The prize wicket of Root is so special.

[Rightarmfast]

Bumrah gets Root! Awesome channel and awesome strategy . Traps Root lbw.

[Vk1]

good performance by our bowlers baring Nadeem who probably is among the least impressive of test cricketers to play for us in the last decade.  His bowling reminded me of Unadkat. 

[Rightarmfast]

Any selection Kohli makes becomes a blunder. Nadeem is a liability in this test match.

[express bowling]

Why is Nadeem being bowled so much  ?

 

Almost everyone else would be better.

Reason-Incapability of a clown to decipher that much little of not over bowling your least impressive bowler

[Forward Defence]

What pace is Bumrah bowling at?

[the don]

Shaheen afridi  cleans up south africa with relentless 140 plus kph pace. 

9 wickets between hassan and shaheen this innings.
