Umer Gul

whatever happened to his speed? Pardon me for being ignorant but I dont remember him bowling at 140K’s. What happened? Whatever it is. Good job man. I hope further down the line he can move to 90mph with similar line/length. :biggthumb

Shhhhhhh! Aahista bolo, kahin ICC na sun le.

Re: Umer Gul

He is been near the 140 kph mark for a while now (since the West Indians toured last year). I guess gaining muscle mass does help gain a bit more pace. He is still not express though, but he has developed a fine yorker and 140 kph is quite enough for it.

Re: Umer Gul

hes a good bowler, regardless of pace. i say that even though i have a slight prejudice against bowlers who bowl in the mid-30s. i mean any indian can bowl at that pace

Re: Umer Gul

Gul's a fine bowler. He should concentrate more on line & length rather than speed. After going wicketless against India, he bounced back and returned figures of 4-0-14-2 against SL last night.

Re: Umer Gul

hez good

Re: Umer Gul

I think you mean mid-80 mph. Even most spinners bowl at 45-60mph

Re: Umer Gul

^maybe he meant 130s

awesome performance, add match winning to that as well...
i think because of BL in this group, all other matches become super important as i believe everyone will beat them. Then you have world champions on other end where everyone is expected to lose. So basically who won this match goes to next round, obviously not accounting for upsets.

i wont 4 get that yorker 2 sarwan
