I was undermining his criteria for selection that a pace bowler with 145kph should automatically be in contention. Pace is not the only criteria maybe cliched but its the cold hard fact. You can bowl 160kph but if you are erratic, he shouldn't be available for selection I have nothing against Thampi. I have never seen him bowl He was in that team when he wasn't erratic and could bowl outswingers at that pace with control and also had an excellent yorker. He wasn't in the team because he could only bowl 150kph+ Then do not jump the gun...I've seen him bowl like many others in televised games.He is a terrific bowler and I have not said he should be picked just because he can bowl 145kph.Varun is faster but I've picked Thampi over him.Pace is a great asset to have but you need other aspects too.Thampi has a good yorker,slower one and quite accurate at that pace.Coming to Hooda he's a fantastic LOI prospect,scored heavily in Ranji and scoring runs in domestic one dayers.Got unreal strike rate,a brilliant prospect for LOIs.

I have been watching cricket all my life. You are just an 12 year old keyboard warrior who has no clue about cricket in the first place. First learn about cricket and then quote me Talking about respect...hahaha it's funny how some people have no idea about Indian domestic cricket and making lame assumptions.Maybe u r watching cricket all your life but U clearly have no clue about what's going on nowadays. I don't think it's necessary to elaborate about a young hot prospect like Thampi. Everybody in this forum are aware of him,probably u r the only exception. Edited February 17, 2017 by ShebbySB

Didn't say Zero, I said close to ZERO All this hype around this guy based on just 1 match is so cringeworthy, the icfers are sounding like padosis who overhype every useless tailunt as the next big thing, let him first play for the A teams and perform over a season before even considering him and here you are putting him directly into the Indian team for the NEAR future lol

Thing is....when you see a fast bowler ( Thampi ) bowling quick, accurate, inswing yorkers at will combined with bouncers and slower balls....picking wickets and being economical....that gives cricketing reasons to promote that bowler. Will it happen ? No one can say. Should it happen ? Based on cricketing reasons....yes. If he gets chances at higher levels, will he succeed ? No one can say as his temperament for the big stage is unknown to us. But, this risk is always there for EVERY new player that is tried at higher levels. It is better to collect a bit of information before passing strong negative opinions. ShebbySB and Mosher 2

Rishabh Pant was chosen for Team India without playing for India A ( He played a practice match for India A after getting selected for Team India ). Kuldeep Yadav was not on the A tour to Australia but is part of the test squad. There are no hard and fast rules regarding all these ( your original argument ) Who knows what can happen if Thampi has a good IPL and catches the eyes of Kumble-Kohli-Dravid. WC is two and a half years away and a lot can happen within that time. Edited February 18, 2017 by express bowling ShebbySB and Mosher 2

All I said was that he has a looooooooooong long way to go and he has close to ZERO chance of getting into the team in the near future, pandya is the the exception, not the rule, kuldeep has been performing in the domestics and he is also talked highly by the commentators so his comparison with thampi is wrong, don't see what the argument here is, who knows what path thampi will take but overhyping him based on few matches is wrong in my opinion, you are free to overhype him anyway
