Stop talking about his positives and ****. He's a ****ing terrible bowler. Like really bad. Listening to ravi explain why his average is so high is annoying. It's high cos he's a bad bowler ffs
Where did I talk about his positives in that post? I practically said he's too **** to ever be good unless he develops a completely new skill in that post.

Ha, yeah it's so annoying. Whenever Ishant's stats are displayed there's an uncomfortable silence in the box followed by one of the coms going
"Oh you know, *awkward cough* indian pitches are flat..... that explains it.....

Yeah"

Great to see Zaheer bowling like this again. Seriously if we get Zaheer, Bhuvi, Shami, Yadav fit for England, it could be great fun to watch

This **** is unfair. Zaheer and Shami bowled as well as any opening pair have in **** knows how long for us and we have nothing to show for it.

That's what happens when you've got piss poor backup and the batsmen know they only have to see off those two :mad:

Heard a lot of interesting analysis on Ishant's bowling where people point out at some technical flaws in his action, etc. But the major difference I see in his bowling is the lack of movement which made it awkward for the batsmen with the extra bounce he got, he never had a good full delivery, or any other variety which he truly mastered, it was just those normal back of the length inswingers which troubled the batsmen. And regardless of what some people say, he was a pretty awesome bowler at the start of his career, didn't get loads of wicket, but he was a lot better than what we have seen in the last couple of years.
