India tour of New Zealand 2020 - 5 T20Is, 3 ODIs, 2 Tests

[LiveLoveABD]

In a game a captain was looking for a bowler who could go at 9/9.5 an over, Jasprit Bumrah is going at 7's while bowling in the death or in the power play and our country boasts of Kohli as it's best cricketer. Bumrah is quite simply, other worldly!!

Difference between the two teams today.

Southee getting games with the white ball is laughable. He bowls medium pace in the high 120s and is absolutely toothless without any pitch assistance. One of the most overrated bowlers at the moment.

He reminds me a lot of Stuart Broad. When conditions suit him, he is second to none but otherwise it's all a bit cannon fodder.

Why is Navdeep dropped

Just got to know he was jet-lagged and was down with cold.

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

I've never been an advocate of having Shami in a T20I.

We did not have any other option apart from him so we had to play him today.

High 120s seems a bit of exaggeration because I've seen him bowl about 130-144 kph in the past.[DOUBLEPOST=1579868302][/DOUBLEPOST]And @Bevab you remember that I told you that Munro does score against us. Today also he did.

Could've been even less if we fielded properly. The world will have a tough time to produce another Bumrah and that is why I was relieved that he did not sustain any serious injury today. I just hope that the ankle twist didn't do any harm to him.

I think the likes of Cummins and Rabada are not far away from him, specially Cummins. Also, it's easy to pass such statements when a guy is at his peak but I feel Malinga and Narine were also achieving ridiculous things in their pomp. Narine bowled a damn maiden over in a super over. That is ridiculous!

The likes of Malinga and Narine always struggled to maintain the accuracy to pitch the ball in the right areas when they had off-days even in their peak days. I think Bumrah hasn't even reached his peak and yet he is bowling so accurately and have kept the batsman guessing. I completely agree with what you said about Cummins , he is another gem of a bowler and certainly one of the most hardworking bowler in world Cricket right now. But, for Rabada I felt he has went off the radar in last couple of years and seems to be fading away a bit after the promise he showed in his early years.

At least Broad can hit 140+ consistently and even go upto 145 on his day. Southee legitimately looks like a medium pacer at times!

@Nilay_60 he was quick in the past, but right now he is absolutely poor with the white ball. Cannot remember a single good performance from him with it in recent times versus a good side.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

That is some bowling performance from India to restrict NZ to a well below par score.

The plans to each and every batter were spot on barring Guptill & Siefert who took on bowlers at the start and the end.

 

[Bevab]

Another brilliant performance from Bumrah. Won't be reflected on the bowling cards but his over in the middle to restrict the scoring was crucial for Jadeja to take advantage of and his over in the death when Seifert was about to go big was equally crucial.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Lol.

 

[Bevab]

Dube at three is such a braindead move.

 

[Bevab]

Decent finish after New Zealand bowled very well in the middle overs. That Dube move might have cost us twenty runs. Pandey continues to do his best in an unfamiliar role, makes me wonder what could have been had he been the chosen one for number four all those years ago.
