Picture perfect indian product in cricinfo comment section

 

ashwinv.vis@gma: "Vishal. I consider myself as fast bowler bowling at 110 kmph and you dont consider 129.5 kmph quick. please give Siraj a break. (may be he needs one)." No offence to your pace but I'm only comparing it with his older speeds of 140+ that we're used to

Our coach sahab would not give debut to Gurnoor, even against Afghanistan or Srilanka.

 

Siraj is seen bowling without intensity,speed but coach sahab has no aukat to replace him with Gurnoor who has a 10 wicket haul against Sri Lanka A 

No Sikhs or Muslims allowed in the team. Siraj will be phased out soon too like Shami

Gurnoor is a Sikh and has debuted and played in 6 ODIs in the last 2 months. 

 

Bumrah and Arshdeep are Sikhs too. 

 

If Siraj goes, it will be because he is bowling in the 120s.

 

Along with Shami most other Seniors have been phased out too.

You yourself said Siraj is trundling at 120s..

How come a Frontline pacer who dont have any secondary skill can just bowl at 120s ?

 

Its like Azhar saying that as he is a muslim he should have been allowed to fix matches.

 

Anyway, excuse have no boundaries. Someone can say that Ashwin was forced out coz he was a South Indian, while Washy is supported coz he is from GT.

While Shami has been given the wrong end of the stick, and I am not sure whether it has anything to do with his religion. It well might be. Another example is Sarfaraz. He isn't getting chances and eyebrows are being raised about it. Add Umran to the list too. 

 

But Siraj will go out because of his own mistake. And I haven't yet seen anything against Sikhs in the Indian team. I mean, I want Arshdeep to be kicked out because he is so limited and faking his way in, in the team. And yet, he is being given chances!

Religion has nothing to do with it.  Seniority is the problem.

 

Siraj playing ahead of Gurnoor coz of seniority only.

Shami can't pick wickets against North Eastern sides anymore and how is he supposed to be part of Indian set up that has multiple young quicks struggling to find a spot?

Selectors and TM don't want oldies. 

 

Ashwin, Kohli, Rohit all removed from the test team.  All oldies removed from the T20 team. 

 

Shami could not pick a single wicket in the just concluded Zonal red ball match against weak North East Zone.

 

Ball by ball replay available on Jio Hotstar. You can watch.

 

Atleast to me, Shami seemed to lose steam after a few overs.

Sarfraz leaked dressing room info.

 

Has been out of favour since.

@singhvivek141 reported that Umran was bowling a couple of yards slower after return from injury.

 

He did not get a single game for KKR either or for his state J&K.

Yeah, Umran didnt looked like he is bowling at his usual pace.

 

No speedometers but even at the KKR practice game...Tyagi was visually faster.

 

If I have to make a wild guess, Umran looked like bowling at 135-141k with odd deliveries around 144-145.

That's the PR version. There are many angles to things.

Regarding which player ?

 

I am personally seeing Siraj bowling at 125 k and Shami bowling much slower after first spell in FCC.

 

And Umran did not get picked by his State where other Muslims are playing.

Yar, ye sab kehne ki baatein hai.

In today's era of Social Media...anything can be twisted into an ill information.

 

Take an example of Gurnoor vs Nabi...Gurnoor was being abused of GT quota, but he outperformed Nabi on similar bowling conditions. 

Even Washy gets an abuse because of this...while Goal post changes to South India when discussion switches to Ashwin or Sanju.

 

There were also news that GG hates Mumbaikars and hence he sidelined Rohit...also he wants to be the biggest bully and hence he dropped Virat.

 

As I said, the conspiracy theories have no limits. Tomorrow, Ravi Bishnoi will start a protest that GG hates players of Bishnoi samaaj due to their "ties" with Lawrence Bishnoi.

Just read this... If it isn't blatant seniority and favoritism then what is?

 

you are wondering why Siraj is not bowling at full tilt then here's what he had to say -"I wouldn’t say I’m at a hundred percent from my side because I’ve come back after a two-month break. I’ve been struggling quite a lot with my rhythm in this situation because I haven’t been able to find that rhythm. So I’m just trying to get my rhythm back. But whatever I’ve been able to do, I’m using my experience and trying to control myself as much as possible while bowling. Because if I think too much, I’ll leak runs, I’ll come under pressure, and the team will also come under pressure. So my attempt is to keep it simple. If I’m not finding my rhythm, what can I do? I’m just trying to build pressure, build pressure, that’s what I’m trying to do."

Never said anything about Siraj. Shami has been getting the rough end for some time, it's not about recent performance. 

Facts can't be changed, what's happening is happening whether one sees it or not. Not forcing my opinion on anyone, but I have been noticing a pattern. 

 

End of the day, to each his own.

Isn't the Indian captain a Sikh? MTC keeps preaching others about falling prey to Baki tactics of infighting, but here he is adding fuel to the fire
