poori_meri Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 reminds me of Waqar of early 90s... [ame=http://youtube.com/watch?v=_JZy2c1gcso]YouTube - Wi batting--Wi Vs Sa 20/20[/ame] Link to comment
Ram Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Wow ! The Windies batsman actually look embarrassed. If he can make them hop like this in a 20/20 game, I even shudder to think what will happen to windies in the tests. Steyn is now the form bowler of world today. Link to comment
Chaos Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 those shots are terrible. How can u play such strokes to balls that are so full and he is fast. WI are terrible. Link to comment

Bumper Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Most of these deliveries were full & fast. There was no vicious swing. Uthappa would have likely hit 3 of those 4 deliveries for boundaries between fineleg & the keeper. Poor batting from WI. Link to comment
Cricketics Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 though windies folkz might have played poor shots, u can't really take credit away from the bowler.. guy bowled well in his 3 over spell.. also he was brilliant against nz.. would be nice to have him in India when saf tours India so that our batting masters can treat him well..

guju24 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 this guy is just too good.....he looks like another bond.... Link to comment
siddhu Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Eventhough the bowling was good, the shot making was really bad.. i think WI are more to blame then Steyn to be praised... Link to comment
The Outsider Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I've repeatedly said and will say it again, Steyn, Johnson, and Sreesanth are the bowlers for the next 10 years, guys you should watch and savor everytime they run in to bowl. Link to comment

Sreesanth has won us just one test match so far. I agree he has a lot of potential, but he needs to do more, before he is hyped up so much. At this point i'd think Asif is the best bowling talent of the young lot. Link to comment

bharat297 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Steyn and Asif are the 2 best young pace bowling prospects out there at the moment I feel. Both fantastic bowlers. About the windies shot selection ... I will say this ... they were yorkers at over 140km/h ... that will be difficult for all batsman. Good batsman can dig those out ... but it is very rare that someone can consistently score off those. I am not talking about the odd boundary here ... but consistently scoring off yorkers at that pace is near impossible. Link to comment
The Outsider Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Asif, without drugs is finding it difficult to compete in international cricket on a regular basis. Link to comment
bharat297 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 lol ... drugs dont make you seam and cut the ball the way Asif does. Give him some credit. Link to comment
The Outsider Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 lol ... drugs dont make you seam and cut the ball the way Asif does. Give him some credit. Never said drugs make you seam and cut the ball, but they help in rehabilitation after injuries and let me know how many matches has the druggie managed to play after supposedly going clean?

Sachinism Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 damn that was some lethal bowling the batsmen were just beaten for pace Link to comment
The Outsider Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Asif, since his drug scandal has played 5 and missed 6 tests, 3 of them when he was still with drugs in his system in South Africa, but got away with it thanks to the no testing clause in bilateral series. After supposedly becoming drug free after the WC, the champ has 2 wickets in 2 tests @ 97, and 9 wickets in 7 ODIs @ 47 with a frightening ER of 6.3! Link to comment

riya Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Great prospect he is . Very nice action too . Link to comment
