Deodhar Trophy

[express bowling]

Nathu bowling quick today, hit the batsman's glove with a short ball before he could react.

Nathu gets steep bounce whenever he hits the deck hard. That quality is a very big plus in international cricket.

He hit the batsman once with a short of good length, hit the hand another time and bowled 2 other good bouncers.

They showed only  2 speeds randomly

First was 141.0 k and second was 141.4 k.

He bowled at that pace in IPL only.. He was always a 130KPH bowler.

I guess you have not seen his bowling in challenger trophy some 3-4 years back. He was bowling 135-140K. He ran through some side, picked up some 5-6 wickets. Bowled some quick outswingers.

No, even in Ranji trophy, I watched him bowl 135-140KPH.

Ok. Apart from IPL, I have never seen him bowling at that pace.

Dhawal Kulkarni is bowling a great line and length. Why can't any Indian bowler do that in International Cricket? Panchal looking good too.

In international cricket, a bowler bowling 125 k to 135 k, and not having loads of skill and experience,  gets hit because international batsmen are very good and have time to adjust....and then loses his control as a result. They end up having neither control nor pace.

Binny strikes

Quite impressed with Jayant Yadav's bowling.

He got sharp turn with a few deliveries with some bounce too...on a neutral deck for spinners.

he has a good action, flights the ball and is a classical off-spinner.

One to keep an eye on, especially because he can bat too.

But has hurt his thumb while fielding.

Nathu Singh came back well after first 2 overs, 11 in next 5.

[express bowling]

Nathu Singh bowls a really quick 2nd spell.

Just 2 runs off 2 overs and lots of bounce....beating batsmen for pace too.

He is bowling a couple of yards quicker today...perhaps bowled slower yesterday as there was a lot of movement available.

Commentators saying that he bowls  very good yorkers in tennis ball cricket.

Nathu has given just 11 runs in his last 5 overs.

Understood quickly that one needs to bowl shorter on this wicket and get bounce.

Also with such congested schedule, it gets very difficult to bowl quick every game. Sometimes, body dont respond and sometimes, mentally tired. These young guys are not just playing main senior FC games and list A games, but they are sent to play U23 games too whenever they arent playing in XI or are getting breaks. They play a lot of matches in a very short span.

True...plus, the cold weather factor perhaps also played a part.

It seems now that Nathu can acually bowl around 140 k consistently ....as his coaches said. 

He has much more bounce than an Umesh or a Shami.

I am really looking forward to Nathu Singh and Ankit Rajpoot develop....both have bounce and height  along with pace.

Nathu bowl Yorker to get Santosh Shinde

[Mosher]

Yes Nathu can bowl good yorker.

Singh to Shinde, OUT, excllent! In the block-hole and the batsman had no answer. Golden duck for the evening.

                         

[Mosher]

Just saw that yorker on starsports.com. Tailing into the batsman. Perfect yorker!

It is becoming really difficult to watch Bumrah and nathu bowl at the same time...and to blog too

yes same here 

Watching both

[express bowling]

Another speed shown for Nathu   136 k

[express bowling]

Nathu has got consistent  reverse swing at pace in the last 2 overs.

Just 7 runs and a wicket.

One more speed shown...138.7 k

He is not looking like brainless or skillless bowler.

[Mosher]

Gandhi batting well under pressure. Is he an AR?
