Shift in perception towards Indian pace bowlers?

[Rightarmfast]

Rahul Shukla?

Yes

[MCcricket]

Yes

He is playing n did decently last year, he is someone who could be decent with his action n gets the ball to do extra with his whippy action

[Rightarmfast]

Then I guess, he should be given a chance. If they want to have a pool of fast bowlers, ie

Then I guess' date=' he should be given a chance. If they want to have a pool of fast bowlers, ie[/quote'] He needs to perform decently n I'm looking to see Him, Sran ,Suyal, Choudhury in our A team this year

[Vijy]

Don't think all of them will make the cut for A team.

[Rightarmfast]

I haven't followed any cricket for a while. Are these bowlers you are mentioning of decent pace? What kind of pace do they hit?

[MCcricket]

When will selectors learn to stop picking useless donkeys like Chawal Kulkarni, Malaria, Unadkunt n what R they hoping to get from their investments lol

[MCcricket]

Not if u want to be among the best test sides, trundlers who are handicapped and can only maybe bowl well on few select wkts n certain times in the games, why would u pick a Bowler who has a huge handicap? Exceptions if you are Aasif, Philander but even they are faster, taller n hit the deck n bat hard, only way I see a trundlers justify a place in a good side is if he can average 40 with the bat!

Brainder Sran is a very "international type" pacer. Tall, left handed and hits the deck hard at pace. Gets bounce and can swing the ball too. Sort of like Starc in terms of bowling style. His FC record is good too, although he has not played much recently. Why ? I would like to see him being groomed.

What happened to Chama Milind and Avesh Khan ? Both looked pacy and promising.

In the IPL Pawan Suyal bowled 133 to 145 k. Good swing, yorkers and a fast bouncer. Brainder Sran bowled 135 to 143 k with bounce and swing. Tall guy, around 6'3". Both are left armers. Jasprit Bumrah was bowling 133 to 142 k in FC before he got injured. He is atleast 6'1". Good bouncer. Many of his pitched up deliveries skid through. All the 3 mentioned above have good FC records. Navdeep Saini was bowling 130 to 138 k in FC. Very tall, bouncy and accurate. Gets seam movement. Rahul Shukla has bowled 130 to 146 in IPL. Bowls a heavy ball with effort. Can be a bit wayward at times. Ravi Kiran was bowling 130 to 138 k in Ranji. Getting lots of bounce. He is tall and looked accurate. Skidded a few deliveries through very sharply. VP Singh is another tall guy with a bit of pace and bounce. I think he bowls 130 to 140 k. Reasonably accurate too and gets seam movement. Chama Milind is a left armer. Decent height gets swing. Bowled 135 to 140 k in the u 19 world cup. Avesh Khan is a tall, deck hitting bowler who bowled 135 to 140 k in the u19 world cup. Looked very raw.

They are all sharp. Hopefully the board will take good care of them.

[Vijy]

All are sharp... but they need to be managed well. I remember Abu Nechim touching nearly 150 kmph once, but he's faded away completely.

If India has a bowler who touches 145K consistently, he should be short listed into the national team. No need to let him get "better" in domestic, let him cut his teeth in the international or A team arena. Pakistan has used this strategy over the years. Shoaib, Waqar and Wasim were faster bowlers when they burst onto the scene, they played, bowled fast, made mistakes, bowled faster, got some wickets and then they became better bowlers in time. However they picked more wickets initially being green bowlers rather than when they became better more seasoned bowlers. We keep waiting for our bowlers to become Waqar before they are given a chance or shown some persistence. By then their actions are "cleaned", run ups augmented and "taught" variations. What you get is Kuruvilla. There's no way Binny should be playing in Sri Lanka if you want to use him as a bowler, it should be Ishant, Yadav and Aaron. If you're playing Binny you might as well play an extra batsman because his dibbly dobblies may pick a wicket or two if he's lucky but he will never be a reliable 3rd seamer. I hope our fast bowlers aren't managed but drafted instead.
