The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

[srbhkshk]

Although Kumble turns the ball in the same direction as Ashwin so maybe Prasanna I guess. Heard some good things about him

?? Theoretically Kumble is a leg spinner, practically he does not turn the ball anyway, either way it's not the same direction as Ashwin.

Can't justify 3 spinners unless it's a dust bowl tbh. Kapil, Zaheer and Bumrah are a decent attack. Ashwin is the first spinner I'd pick. Not sold on the second spinner though you could go with Jadeja if you consider his batting but he is a significant downgrade from Kumble as a bowler and I don't think he'd contribute much with the bat if he was facing another ATG attack.

Three or four things wrong here but the bolded is... revelatory on so many levels.

This is the second time in two weeks I've made such a blunder. Recently I was debating with HB and kicking his ass and after making like a thousand fantastic points said Danish Kaneria is an off spinner and HB was like haha eat **** he is a leg spinner and very conveniently ignored all the points

Anyway this made it easier then Ashwin and Kumble

Yes. Again do not know why I said that

Since this post is full of blunders(as you yourself admitted later), it is easier to highlight the tiny part which you got right and not the rest of the post which is all wrong.

For those saying Mohammad Nissar.

He's Pakistani, and moved to Lahore on the day of partition. lived there for 20 years before he passed away. If you're really depending on a pakistani to improve on your pace attack, then i dont have any words

 

[trundler]

Bet you guys feel much better about my posting now

All the test matches India lost before independence played by Nissar should also be partitioned I guess.

If you listentome, you would have known I always valued your posting. No relativity needed. I have even said this multiple times in this forum.

okay ngl i laughed

On a similar note, doesn't Wasim Akram live in Australia ?

nope. On a similar note, no need to be sly and offended about me telling you about Nissar's nationality. Surely you find it hilarious too that india's greatest termed fast bowler in quality ends up being a pakistani

 

[h_hurricane]

Ymaxxx, how about Imran vs Jadeja ?

Nothing much to separate in their batting or bowling. And we all know who is the better fielder.

How hurt are you to change the topic? Really saddens me to see jadeja's away record.

And in odis its just a sad case really. a 38 bowling average and 32 bat avg. Shamefully bits and pieces.

But anyways i hope you find peace with nissar's nationality champion!

Imran married a brit but she divorced him, last I checked.

Jadeja is a better all rounder than shahid afridi

Zaheer Khan has a favorable imprint on the minds of a lot of Indian fans owing to his late career revival, brief as it was, which also coincided with India being the top test team in late noughties. The left arm factor also has a role to play.

But he has noticeably worse numbers than Srinath despite playing with an Indian team with the best batting firepower assembled together. For the longest part of his career he was just an up and down across-the-line bowler with no standout virtue, no exceptional pace, no swing, no seam.
