Best Bowling Pair Currently

[irottev]

I'm going to continue the trend of not being biased and go with:

Openers: Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad
Middle Overs: Graeme Swann and Paul Collingwood
Death: Andrew Flintoff and Tim Bresnan

Anderson and Broad actually did quite well this year. Broad was pretty expensive though but for opening bowlers i'd consider Anderson for sure. With him again Johnson was a bit expensive. Would like Bond but he's on comeback - we'll see how he does vs Australia.

ODIs we're talking since we mention middle and death overs I presume

Death: Steyn and Gul as both are fast and can bowl good yorkers. Lee and Malinga are injured and have been all year but they could be considered.

^^ Could you fit more Indian cricketers in there? Seriously dude...

I dunno. I think he should replace Vettori with Harbhijan.

 

[Chetan0304]

Opening: Zaheer Khan and Sreesanth
Middle: Ravendra Jadeja and Daniel Vettori
Death Overs: Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma

how biased :

Here would be my ideal ODI lineup.

Opening: Dale Steyn and Shane Bond
Middle Overs: Shahid Afridi and Daniel Vettori
Death Overs: Lasith Malinga and Nathan Bracken*

* If he was at the same level that he was at about two/three years ago when he consistently played in the ODI team.

Watson = Good death bowler

Watson = Good death bowler

Generally yes (although not in India). But it's not like he does it that often. Usually it is the faster man's duties.

 

[OffCutters]

Watson`s a good for nothing.

Could I show you his performances this year?

Best all-rounder this year without a doubt.

I think I've worked out the theory for OffCutters hate for Watson. He secretly has a huge man-crush on Watson, but he has to try and hide his blatant homosexuality so he secretly pretends he hates Watson.. every time Watson's name comes up, OffCutters has to reinforce that he hates him and does not love him in any way.. despite the obvious blushing and pink cheeks every time he sees Watson on TV.

BrettLee and pollock -new ball
Harbhajan and ajmal -middle overs
rana naved and malinga -death overs.:banana2

 

[irottev]

Pollock? What rock have you been hiding under? He's long retired. Naved doesn't play anymore either I don't think. I think he went ICL and ever since has been kind of ignored.

 

[tannu_supercool]

pollock can still generate seam that he used to and also he is fit enough to do so..look at his ipl performances few match winning ones..retired????that way we should not consider hayden and gilly as guys mentioned their names is best opening pairs and naveds death bowling spell vs australia in champions trophy proves that he is best when it comes to reverse swinging yorkers.

 

[naresh091]

Naved doesn't play anymore either I don't think. I think he went ICL and ever since has been kind of ignored.

Nah.Naved played during the Champions Trophy and bowled brilliantly in the death against the Aussies.
