Pakistan’s pacers and India’s Jasprit Bumrah dependency: Has the balance shifted?

[Farabi]

You posting these fantasy delusions won't have any effect in the real world. Indian bowling even without Bumrah is far far ahead of the pop gun mediocrities that Pakistan have right now. Siraj won us a Test in South Africa almost single handedly while the likes of Rana and Akashdeep have already shown more promise in their short Test careers than any if the Pakistani trundler brigade. You guys literally had to resort to 10 days old wickets and a couple of uncle spinners to escape from another embarassment at home.

Instead of worrying / pretending to worry about Bumrah's longevity , you should be worrying about how to avoid yet another series whitewash in the southern hemisphere thanks to a pop gun attack incapable of bowling out the weakest South African batting line-up of all time.

How have they shown more promise ?
Where are the wickets? The common denominator for the new pacers is the tour down under in 2023. Let’s get some data:

Amir Jamal - 18 wickets at 20
Mir Hamza - 7 wickets at 20
Khurram S - 6 wickets at 25
Nitesh Rana - 6 wickets at 50
A Deep - 5 wickets at 54
NKR - 3 wickets at 49

Firstly, Amir Jamal is also an allrounder.
Secondly, I’ll take the pop gun mediocrity over these “promising young Indian pacers”. You can keep this promise.

Now don’t waste our time please!!

If you are playing a Test match, there is no workload management during the game. If you want to manage workload, then just skip the match.

He cannot skip. India just has to go with 4 proper pace bowlers. Because of Reddy India is in a conundrum. Usually India goes 4 specialist fast bowlers in SENA. Because batting is weak they are covering it with Reddy who is not much of a bowler.

Yes please be happy with these stats built on much more bowling friendly conditions resulting in the big old egg of a 3-0 clean sweep..

I'll take my more wins and draws in this series alone than your country managed in the last 3 whole decades..

Most pak fans are criticizing this popu gun attack in the match thread lol You somehow try to project it as a world beating fast bowling unit. Even Philander took a dig at this bowling attack. You must be having ultra low expectation from your team. You are calling 88th ranked bowler with an average of 46 as the best in Pakistan. That is your expecation?

Of course when Pakistani players do well, it’s due to conditions or vs B teams. India is the only one that does well against A+ teams and conditions have nothing to do with it. You’re blowing your cover man. Now everyone can see you openly as a troll.

In case you had your head buried in sand all this time , you would have noticed that even mediocre bowlers tend to pick up wickets in helpful conditions and even great bowlers tend to struggle on batting highways.

1. What Pakistanis think is irrelevant. The Pakistani obsession with raw pace and lack of appreciation for skills is why our actual quality pacers (Abbas, Mir Hamza, KS) have been under leveraged and therefore under cooked.
2. I already provided data. As for rankings, those become useful if someone is consistently playing. Someone who hasn’t even played many tests, or played tests over 6 years on flat pitches, the data is not reliable.

Cricket is a conditional sport for everyone. Where it becomes a delusion my brother is when you pull conditions out of the hat to explain away performances of Pakistani players. Your new bowlers who bowled down under have been underwhelming. Just accept it and move on. Starc, Cummins, Boland, Hazelwood and Bumrah are having field day in these supposed “better batting conditions” because they have the skills.

Pakistani batters in Aus were underwhelming in 2023. Babar and Saud were pathetic. I have no qualms in admitting it. Have the confidence to accept the truth.

I didn’t realize this thread about whether India’s red-ball fast bowling revival is ending—thanks to Shami, Ishant Sharma aging and no clear replacements—would turn into this debate. We’re seeing young Indian bowlers go from test debuts to being called “net bowlers” and there are still “promising prospects” averaging in the 50s.

If I’d known it would turn into a mud-slinging match between Pakistan and India, I probably wouldn’t have started it. Anyone who’s followed my posts knows I’ve always been pretty friendly and respectful toward India and their cricket.

Guess this topic hits a nerve for many Indians, and I get why. After years of fast bowling that often disappointed, it’s tough to watch a good period from 2017-2023 come to an end.

Moving forward whoever will resort to mud slinging and cannot discuss this topic on its merits will be ignored.

 

[Ab Fan]

Honestly from an Indian perspective, I am not too concerned with India’s fast bowling history or bothered with its revival.

Remember Kapil Dev was the leading wicket taker in Tests for almost a decade before Courtney Walsh break it in 2000. All through the 90s, it was Kapil Dev who was leading wicket taker.

Now, India has got a fast bowler who has phenomenal record as a lead bowler in top countries and has 200+ test wickets at avg of 19. Even that average goes downhill, it will stay under 25 and even 23 too. Hence, we have got that one truly great fast bowler we needed. Kapil obviously is there as someone who had longevity too.

Ashwin has 530 wickets and ended with average of 24, that’s again a spinner that avg under 25. So, it’s not barren anywhere anymore. I would love to have more fast bowlers coming but Bumrah has filled the big void that was there in India’s pace bowling history.

India's only problem will be to find bowlers who wants to play Tests. There are a lot of fast bowlers comign through. But they focus on doing well in T20 as IPL can quickly turn them into millionaires. Look at Bhuvi, Deepak Chahar. Both out and out swing bowlers. Doesn't have motivation to play Tests. They are all millionaires now. Yash Dhayal was in th radar. Now he is another crorepathi.

I stand by what I said and don’t really mind if others agree or not. In the last 24-36 months, Pakistan’s up-and-coming pacers have outperformed those from India, which seems overly reliant on Bumrah. I’ve shared data to back up this claim.

You sure are entitled to opinion. GOod that you admit it as "opinion" atleast even if it is not shared by vast majority of your fans.

 

[Devadwal]

Trundler Jamal is one series wonder ,he is bowling like a school boy in South Africa.

Mir'yeah' Hamza is another pakistani trundler who don't know how to bowl in certain conditions or long spells .

Who are the good option as neither Naseem hasn't done anything nor Shaheen.

Shaheen is not intrested to play test cricket anymore .

Abbass the leader of trundler brigade's needs favourable conditions otherwise he is nothing bowler.


I don't see anything special in pakistan bowling line up .

Shaheen and Naseem are their prime bowler's but they are not suitable/ or intrested to play the all formats now .

 

[Farabi]

You sure are entitled to opinion. GOod that you admit it as "opinion" atleast even if it is not shared by vast majority of your fans.

Yes. And let me add.

If all these new Indian pacers start performing, I will recognize them. Shut me up with your performance with the ball in hand. The criteria is the same: performance.

Amir Jamal is on a downward spiral for example. If he fails, then that weakens what I am proposing.

Not for Shami (who isn't finished btw).

But Siraj is a little more consistent than Ishant and better when he's on the game.

 

[saimayubera]

SA 393/5

Aus 181 ao with 8 wickets by siraj, prasidh, nitish

Yes, the new Indian pacers are not as good as Ishant, Shami but then those two also required 4-5 years to become real good.

To compare with the mediocrity that is Pakistan pace bowling for the better part of two decades is something though.

 

[saimayubera]

Haha only that’s not what I am saying.

Even if they haven't, Pakistan's pace bowling would only be better if they had guys as good as those two.

Is Ind's pace bowling worse than before? YES

Is Pak's pace bowling better than Ind's? NO

In the last 10 years,
Shami - 188 @ 25.48
Ishant - 124 @ 25.01

No Pakistani fast bowler has had a run of that many wickets at that average since Akhtar retired (he last played in 2007).

Asif had a good average but only 106 wickets.

Gul only pacer to have more than Ishant's 124 wickets but poor average of 34+

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Delusional thinking from OP , Saf knows that Pak has trundlers pretending to be pacers so they prepared a batting wicket and yes these trundlers can bowl well on a spicy and bouncy wicket but you need to be bowling 135-142k with effort bowl up to 145/146k pace consistently through out the day with deadly accuracy and some seam movement to get batsmen out in test cricket in such conditions and sadly Pak doesn’t have a single test match pacer fulfilling this criteria.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Khurram is fine but we need two express pacers fitting this criteria to become competitive in Test cricket , only Akif and Awais Anwar are quick through out the day with good stamina in our current domestic bowlers but both of them are wayward and Ali Raza just lacks pace and is very young to be playing test cricket right now but he definitely has the potential.

 

[Mainul]

Shami literally has like top 2 best stats in odi world cup. He is better than waqar in both formats.

Not at all. This is WC obsession.

Pakistan sure concede 500-600+ a lot.

When was the last time India conceded that much. Maybe in the 2014-15 BGT which is over a decade ago.

The maximum that teams manage is 450 odd on flat pitches/Ind bowlers having a bad day. That is seriously impressive.

@Buffet - Can you check?

my point was you said that ind's bowling is worse than pak's cause they have been unable to replace ishant/shami.

but india being unable to replace ishant/shami means indian bowling is weaker compared to before, not compared to pakistan.

ind being unable to replace ishant/shami inferring pak bowlers are better would only happen if pak had bowlers of that quality which they don't.

barring bumrah, siraj is better than all current pak pacers. others are all unproven on both sides with small sample sizes.

Someone shared last 7 250+ score by batsmen in another thread. It's relevant for this thread discussion.

5 out of the last 7 250+ came against Pakistan. 1 each came against WI/BD.
2 was in Pakistan and 3 was outside.


I think with since Pakistan is turning the corner in terms of quality of pacers, we shouldn't see 5 out of next 7 entries against Pakistan. May be zero or maximum one entry? Pakistan can not do much about away, but surely needs to stop giving flat roads at home. 2 came in the same test when pitch was super road.


Last 7 250+ scores by batsmen.
