Doesn't mean they won't be effective time on bouncier faster pitched.

Give some examples of such players who struggle in ranji but succeed on bouncy pitches.

Pitch started as a green, later turned into a flat pitch with lot of bounce.

Mukesh bowled well with new ball, as soon as conditions flattened he became useless.

 

Kuldeep Sen tore through Saurashtra with old ball in first inns and then absolutely crushed second inns and took a 5fer. Was bowling fast and with bounce. Got the wicket of Pujara in both inns courtesy of his pace and disconcerting bounce.

Akashdeep bowls decent Test match speeds and has good new ball skills. Not that good with the old ball but that can improve.

 

Why wouldn't he work on a bouncy track ?

Akashdeep is an accurate, 140 k+, tallish hit the pacer who gets bounce and seam movement. Knows how to pick wickets in FC and is 135 k+ in his slower spells.

 

He is likely to be better than most other Indian pacers on bouncy tracks, barring Bumrah.

if Rana can get some games, he is also likely to do well. both he and akash can bat to an extent as well

I wish he was bigger - size is everything, yes? should aim to get to the rana-type physique, like a tank :P

Harshit Rana has a big bulging tummy from side.

He is strong but physique wise not so good.

Umesh had the best physique for Indian quicks...Yudhvir, Hangargekar are also strong and has good physique.

Sears (NZ) - Is he in any IPL team, bowled few sharp overs against Aus in test , consistently in 140 kmph and then few balls in 145 kmph.

 

Also looks like Pathirana (Sl) has gained some pace consistently 145 kmph + and lot of balls ~150 kmph

i guess thats the type of bowler he is, needs lots of bounce from the pitch .And then he is injury prone .

Bhuvaneshwar captained for SRH for few games.

I think Zak also captained Delhi Daredevils.

Mukesh is 127-135 in Tests...Akash was 135-142.

Mukesh can hit 140 like Harshal, Arshdeep in T20 as an effort ball, but Akashdeep is more consistent with his pace due to his rhythmic action.

Every fast bowler who bowls with effort gets injured. It's upto the board to provide them proper injury mgmt, something which NCA isn't known for.

 

Sen is actually a good bowler. It's pity that his best days are often messed due to poor injury mgmt. He is wayy better than Avesh Khan type bowlers who are a fixed fixture in Indian cricket team.

Saw atleast 4 deliveries at 143 k+ by Akash.

 

And he is likely to touch higher speeds if he becomes secure about his position and plays more games.

Yes, I have never seen Mukesh hitting 140 in Tests..fastest I saw was 138-139. Akashdeep's fastest was around 144.
