Reverse Swing anyone?

[King]

Pakistan thought to be the better exponents of reverse swing demonstrated no such skill through out the series. Not a single ball reversed and it must be one of the skills that’s gone down the drain in Pakistan cricket. Surely it must be time for PCB to get Waqar or Wasim on board to teach few tricks to the faster bowlers. Unless PCB does something this Pakistan cricket team will struggle to pick let along 20 wickets of the Indian team, they’ll even struggle to pick 20 wickets in a game against he likes of West Indies. Sure a lot of credit should go to the Indians for the way they have batted but Pakistan bowling attack has been rater tame. Not enough slower ones used, hardly any yorker tried and no sight of reverse swing whatsoever.

They used to be good exponents at reverse swing ... now England and India are better.

MP, I request you not to post videos from other forums here, since a quid pro quo is not allowed. Yasir Arafat did reverse a few balls, I think. But Ravi, you have been going on about the Pakistani bowlers. What about our own? The Kolkata Test match was crying out for a virtuoso performance from an Indian spinner on a 4th innings track, right? Harbhajan Singh could not buy a single wicket. Has there ever been a bigger letdown for India? Take our seamers. With Sreesanth and RP Singh out, and Zaheer winding down and overworked, there was this great opportunity for the supporting cast to step up to the plate. What have we found? Names like Sharma, Patel, VRV and Pathan terrorize the domestic batsmen, but put them on an international stage and they look an embarassmant. Do you think they would have made it to any other side but India? India's bowling problems are being disguised by their batsmen's output on slow low tracks. Once the latter get their comeuppance on the bouncy pitches of Australia against much more skillful bowlers, there will be no hiding places for this lot.

Probably our opposition, if they are playing the likes of Sami. :D
