Pace bowling Dept for India
by Shridhar Venkat Iyer on Jul 15, 2007 08:44 PM

We have seen RP Singh, VRV Singh for quite sometime, and they have not been performing well at the international level. Pathan was removed, due to his poor bowling performance during the last couple of years. The selectors can't be blamed for this.

We have seen Ishant in Bangladesh. He has not done a great job there. We have seen Bose for the first time against the England Lions recently. He has also not performed well in English conditions. However I feel they should be given some more chances before we conclude anything.

As of now, I personally feel Sreesanth, Zahir Khan, Munaf Patel, and Agarkar will have to shoulder their pace bowling Dept for some more years, before they are relieved by some new faces who can perform consistently. I think we have no better choice than this as of now.

With best wishes,
Srinivasan.
