rkt.india Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Thakur is a prospect' date=' but I'd still rather wait for Sandeep to put on another 5kmphs and then select him.[/quote'] Sandeep needs at least 10k, not 5. Thakur too is at least 2 years away from being picked. I am talking about thakur as a seam alrounder. He needs to keep up his batting too.
Texan Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Thakur ready for Tests - Mongia Baroda chief selector Nayan Mongia personally congratulated Shardul Thakur for his effort in the match. So impressed was the former India wicketkeeper that he said Thakur was ready for Test cricket based on current form. "If I were to be a selector and I was to select a team for a Test match right now, I would include him in the team right away," Mongia said. "His pace, his attitude, his dedication, his intensity and his discipline convinces me that he is ready." All of Thakur's four five-wicket hauls this season have come playing away from home. Mumbai would be hoping for a similar effort from him at home when they meet Karnataka at Wankhede Stadium. http://www.espncricinfo.com/ranji-trophy-2014-15/content/story/825853.html
BlueBee Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Haven't seen much of him. He looks a very average bowler to me though, was bowling 120k in his 10th over.
renjith Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 India might get a very good bowling attack if speed guns are banned from cricket. Imagine our seam bowling lineup if there were no speed guns :)

Imagine our seam bowling lineup if there were no speed guns :) Yeah very much like the great bowling attack we had in the 90s with Kuruvilla, Paras Mahambrey, Prashant Vaidya, Doda Ganesh, Harvinder Singh, etc. Opposition teams used to wet their pants at their sight.

FischerTal Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 better than spray guns on any given pitch spray guns give away 300 per match. these bowlers will give away 280-285. not a big difference
vishalvirsingh Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 I saw him bowling 142 k when he was bowling along with zak and zak was bowling 135 at the *** end of his career. shardul was bowling from 133 to 142 and I thought he was a bit similar to shammi..though shammi is faster for sure.
BlueBee Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Shardul needs more stamina, pace drops to as low as 119 after 10 overs.
