Which type of bowling will be most effective in this WC?

TumTum · 19-01-2011, 10:41 PM

In the SC spin looks like the way to go, however in pressure games such as these for some reason I think the spinners might get targeted by the batsman whilst the pace bowlers will do most of the damage.

Discuss.

Indian bowling (a perfect blend of slow and medium)

Bat.

Bowl straight, whatever you bowl, vary pace, etc. Going to be a run fest I reckon.

Unless we end up with pitches like the Champions Trophy. The stadia were under renovation back then, and they're under renovation now. It isn't summer until March, and the pitches won't have had much time to cook.

Dude, don't scare me

Well spin in the middle overs and pace during the begining and end overs would seem the obvious choice lol. Having said that, I think it really would vary from stadium to stadium as to which is more effective. Couple of pitches over here where pace is probably the best option.

Rest easy, we have Bhajji and Ashwin and a whole line up which can bowl spin.

Reckon good bowling will be the most effective type of bowling.

True. SL bowlers are very good at varying their pace.

Like every location in the world, good bowling will be the most effective.

Spikey · 20-01-2011, 03:16 AM

What about great bowling? Terrific bowling?

Probably slow bowling, but good bowling > all, naturally.
