Chris Tremlett - Built Like a Tank

[CoolSERAZ]

jones was too fragile. no doubt he was super quick and had deadly movement off the pitch. that reverse swing bowled of clarke was epic.

 

[James]

gimme Hoggard over Anderson.

Interesting. Lots of Hoggy fans on PP me included but Sky did a little piece on Anderson, and 2008-present he has been a monster.

^^
yeah jimmy much like zaheer has peaked relatively late in his career.

maybe its just as a person, always liked his no frills, salt-of-the-earth type character.

 

[cric_fan82]

he surely is built like a tank

Tremlet is the man, the best bowler in Test, This is what a Test bowler should be build like.

 

[what ho]

This might be presumptuous and utterly overfamiliar, but what type of mary jane have you been dabbling in?

There is a certain chappie called Dale Steyn, just to jog your memory....

 

[Robert]

he surely is built like a tank

Trem can put a cricket ball in his mouth and close it.

His test s/r has now dropped below 50.

 

[James]

At the moment CT looks like he could be as good as Morne, who I also think is excellent. Let's see what happens over the next few seasons.

 

[BoomBoomCricket]

Top bowler.

 

[CoolSERAZ]

tremlett is superb test bowler. dont know about odis. he was utterly ineffective in wc and was average during aus series on the same grounds where he had wrecked them in tests.
maybe some problem like steyn who was great in tests but average in odis(now is much better).

 

[James]

ODIs aside, just thinking of tests. He can be everything that Harmison should have been. CT is too old to rack up a silly amount of wickets but he can finish with a really good record. Hope he doesn't get injured again.

Looks a complete bowler - consistent line on most days, lethal just short of a length, and gets movement on the full to boot. Surmised by two wickets in two balls in Aus - cramped Haddin with a monstrous bouncer and then swung one right through Johnno.

sorry just have to post this again...

Tremlett is has been seriously impressive. He looks fully fit with a lot of confidence. He also seems like a gentle giant who isn't really into sledging but prefers to concentrate on his bowling. If the pitches offer bounce against India he will ripp through the Indian batting line up. A great re call to the England side.

 

[dani2k]

...only for English conditions. Aren't tanks supposed to handle all conditions. Chickening out once faced with adversity. What a misnomer!

 

[Slog]

Whatever happened to this guy

He was HUGE!!

 

[Markhor]

Whatever happened to this guy

He was HUGE!!

He retired last summer. Too many injuries.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

He’s even bigger now.

[Chief Destroyer]

Useless when you can't move.

Comparing to his countrymen, someone like Ball has a much more athletic physique but he's a terrible bowler.

 

[Aman]

Does he still play?

That build looks all kinds of wrong for a cricketer, I can't see him lasting long with it.

Edit:

He retired

 

[Robert]

It’s a shame. He could have been our Garner, but he couldn’t stay match fit.

 

[Savak]

Lol, that physique is useless if you are bowling on average at 127-130 km/hr.

 

[HitWicket]

Lol, that physique is useless if you are bowling on average at 127-130 km/hr.

He's not playing anymore, but even when he was he was well above those speeds?

 

[James]

He is a beast!! Ripped or what.

 

[aloo paratha]

When he bowled it didn't look overly quick to the eye. It's more to do with his action, because it looks like he just jogged in like a medium pacer.
