Speeds and Performances of Pacers and Spinners

[express bowling]

Gurnoor 141.9 k at top of off stump.

[express bowling]

Gurnoor 9th over.

 

3 balls at 140 k+, fastest 141.9 k.

 

Bowling in really good areas now. Targeting top of off with odd bumpers and yorkers.

 

 

[express bowling]

Gurnoor  143.1 k at top of off.

[express bowling]

Gurnoor  10th over

 

Fastest 143.1 k

 

2 balls at 140 k plus 

 

2 sizzling and accurate bumpers 

 

Bowled in good areas and targeted the top of off. 

 

Got good bounce this over even with length balls.

[express bowling]

Gurnoor has an easy and repeatable action and consistent pace of high 130s to early 140s even in FC cricket bowling in the heat on a flat deck.

 

Hits the deck hard and does not spray the ball even when bowling with full effort. Gets bounce.

 

Can be an Ishant type tall, hit the deck, pacy and accurate work-horse who can maintain pressure from his end in tests and even ODIs.

 

Have to watch him against better batters though, before forming a conclusive opinion.

6’5’’ and 140 kph is too good . If he can sustain that speed and get some seam/swing he can be pretty lethal.

Gurjapneet is as tall as Gurnoor and left armer but is too slow. Wonder if someone can work with him to increase his pace so that he can be an all format option for us.

What is the point of providing such flat pitches with negligible seam movement, pace and bounce  !

Gurnoor is 25, time to inject him NOW.

Few more years and he will be 28 something, may end up like Saini

Is it due to Morkel effect ?

Pushing for tall bowlers...even likes of Dube despite being trundler are tall and generate awkward bounce

Need to know are these same curators from 2016,17 or different ?

As they prepared some real good pitches in those times 

Pace,bounce ,turn everything at apt intervals

does he Swing ..in swing or outswing ? is he Skilled like Siraj , bowls at different angles and gets inswing or Outswing

does he have a SLOW ball ..does he vary his pace?

or he just gets little bounce ?

does he have a good yorker like sardar arshdeep/ boom ?

Have not watched this match, but have seen some of the highlights where he played.

 

He can bowl full and hard length both at-least at those levels. Bowling full with some pace is difficult for bowlers with that height.

 

He has basic ingredients, tall with decent pace. He can be worked up-on to make him to a good Intnl quality bowler.

 

As said previously nee speedometers in these local games, tell alot about the batters and bowlers.

There are many if not all, as soon as bowler tries to bowl fast they are who discourages the fast bowler. If a trundler goes for 4/6 its batters ability and if a faster bowler goes for run its a bad ball.

 

And same group of these ppl are commentating every where, every league.

Our A team pacers got a pasting against Australia. Just feel bleak looking at our prospects for the seamer role
