Is Mehedi's action clean? If so, dream start

Did anyone watch? Is Mehedi's action clean? If so, dream start, I think great fantastic potential. But I did not watch, so wanted to get ICF view if action is clean.

1.  His action is clean

 

2.  It was a pitch that spun from day 1, where spinners opened the bowling from both ends for (IIRC) both teams .  So whether he's any good or not, whether it was beginner's luck or a rare purple patch or both, or whether he is a real find remains to be seen.  For the moment he's an exciting prospect, no more but no less.

His action is fine. His bowling kind of reminds me of Ashish Kapoor. Not so much the action, but the way the ball behaves once it comes out of his hand.

See BD will start maturing and in 4-5 yrs they will start winning more an more test at home. I for one am all for home advantage so good for BD for winning the test. 

 

What i am more interested in is how their players and fans handle this win. I just hope they dont go overboard and start their usual cocky nonsense. These are the same guys who were run close by afghans a few months back.

Good to see a Bangla bowler who is not a slow left armer doing well. I'm sick of seeing the army of slow left arm bowlers they have produced so far.

Its not about indian or non-indian. Now a days the first question that comes to mind when a new spin bowler comes to prominence is whether his action is clean or not.

OP just asked about action as he hasnt watched match..There is history of chuckers in Bangladesh and Pakistan,so the doubt..

Nothing to burn about in that..I cant believe you guys watch cricket so passionately,follow it very closely and still believe in those things.(BCCI=ICC)

I watched him in action. He is one of those full sleeve bowler. Infact, Bongs have taken it to next level. I.e its loose full sleeve253779.3.jpg

Ajmal and Junaid. Both chucked. Get over it now.

Bangla boys are just missing one good fast bowler and they will be a handful to any team in the subcontinent. They already have their best top 7 ever assembled in test cricket.

 

Tamim

Imrul Kayes

Monimul Haque

Mahmudullah

Shakib

Mushfiqur

Shabbir Rahman

Mehedi Hasan

Tajiul 

Fizz

One more quick (maybe Takshin)

 

That is one solid team for the subcontinent. Depth in batting till #8, 4 spinners with variety (off spin, left arm spin, leg spin) and two quick bowlers.

They are looking better, but still a bit to go.  Disappointed wit Mahmudullah a bit, hope he doesn't turn into their Rohit Sharma.  He looks the part when batting, and expected him and Sarkar to lead the bangles with the bat.  Sarkar has slumped and is riding the bench everywhere, and Mahmudullah seems to be throwing his wicket away.

Yes, his action is clean..Right arm orthodox spinner..Not a mystrey spinner. He can bat also but didnt do well with bat..Bangladesh have found right handed Shakib..

May be better.....

His action is simple and more importantly repeatable....(someone like jaddu or sehwag)...

He looks to be a classical off-spinner (drift, little bit of air and good zip off the surface)

Whats working for him are those subtle changes is he doing every ball.....

Pitches are little too spinning friendly and assisted him big time....

On a standard sub-continent pitches, he may not be this successful....

"It's not England's lack of batting ability but its the pitch and bowlers skill" which got him wickets

we all know every decent spinner in world chucks EXCEPT Ashwin...

LOL, you come in the lion's den and expecting to walk out harmless? :no:

But i'll give it to you bud, Ashwin's bowling always looked dodgy to me :P ... there I said it. Happy 

Speaking of this kid, his bowling looks like a normal spinner but for a 19 years old kid to take 19 wickets in 2 matches is no joke. Only way is up for this kid since time is on his side.

His the real deal for Bangladesh. Ear marked as the future Bangladesh captain. Both Mehedi and Mustafiz combination will be deadly. His young and can have bad days, all about learning now. His very intelligent also.

And not a Pakistani... so no no-balls or biting the balls..
