Umesh Yadav the best India pacer: Rodney Hogg


Recommended Posts

i agree Umesh seems to have settled down.

Since the last 3 tests , he starts slowly with a 135 to 137k ball and slowly increases pace and focuses on line and length and it seems he plans what he is trying to ball.

He tries to bowl with a 15 over ball and tries his best to swing ..earlier he used to just try Pace and due to that end up bowling towards the leg side.

this is very good news that his natural weak ball ( 1 in an over for sure on the leg stump) is now becoming a straight ball trying to get the batsman lbw.

he has this skiddy action so would definitely get Lbw.

I see him and Starc getting a lot of wickets in this series as I think India May not produce totally Patta wickets.

That's just hype. Since Dale Steyn missed out on IPL due to injury, he's sucking up to Indians so he can get a lucrative contract next time around.

Did someone say hype......we already have Nathu,Basil,Aniket....Ankit,Natarajan and a few other names I cannot recall are waiting in the wings.....why spend so much money on a washed up bowler...Steyn won't be bought next year :phehe:

Such confidence, he was the last bowler to get the ball.

Because he's a different bowler with the old ball. At least he doesnt pick a player like Binny and then never bowls him on purpose.

If Dhoni held him back that long people would have demanded his resignation that very moment.

He was saved for the ball to get older. 

And that is why he was bowling with new ball at the end?

 

Yes getting him to bowl with old ball seems to have been the plan but just pointing out perception is everything. If Dhoni did same thing there would be uproar.

At the end, there were tailenders who aren't supposed to be that good against new ball.

To allow him to bowl all his spells when the ball is reversing.  

 

Kohli specifically said in an interview that he likes to use Umesh in India when the ball starts to reverse.

Dhoni's support for a rookie Pandya's bowling was appreciated here by many, even though Pandya was not always bowling well in his first  few matches.
