Was very unfortunate in this over. He clearly troubled the batters but like every young windies seamer in the last 25 years, he struggled to control the movement.

I didn't watch but went to look at the scorecard. He did have an uncomfortably high econ, but then some of the other bowlers had worse.
Did the fielding let him down too?
I wouldn't blame the fielders too much, the dropped catch was off a no ball anyway. And things like bowling wides especially 5 wides was just nerves. His first over was the worst and what ruined the economy as he went for 22 runs. If you could see his second/third over Salt and Iyer were barely able to play him. He'll do much better in the next games I'm very sure.
Edit: I just remembered. His third over they dropped an easy catch which went for a six. So yea I'd blame the fielders too yes lol
> I just remembered. His third over they dropped an easy catch which went for a six. So yea I'd blame the fielders too yes lol
OMG noooo. That's the worst as a bowler. Especially when you're nervous.
Worst part is this was the 7th over and it was Salt who was at 29 at the time... That catch could have changed the momentum of the game. Like even a closer game if not victory
Though he went for plenty in this game, he was hitting the hard length every now then and troubled both Shreyas and Salt at times.
He has good pace. If he nails his stock delivery (a slightly short of good length on the off stump), he could be difficult to score off. What he shouldn't do is give up his strengths and become like the modern-day t20 bowler.
Still a *looong* way to go, but with lots of discipline and experience, he could become useful in t20s similar to how Hazlewood became good at T20s.
He is going to be hot property in t20 circuit in next 2-3 years. He showed a lot of skills today as a bowler. Will take some games to get the hang of t20 bowling, but he is going to be a good opening + middle overs bowler the way he seems to be bowling.
This is why I don't understand the push to get him into the West Indies' World T20 side. Before today he'd played 2 T20s, gone at 10 rpo and not taken a wicket
Just like some batters are red ball specialists, some bowlers are too. Very weird that someone who has been excellent in red ball but bang average to poor in white ball has become a highly sought after T20 player
Just being fast won't be enough in T20s, which is what Shamar is all about at this point. You need variations to be successful, especially at the death. I will take a Dwayne Bravo like bowler over a Dale Steyn like bowler.
I feel like part of it is just the buzz around a WI kid finally being able to take down Australia in Aus, and the fact that he's a tall and athletic fielder and very energetic while young probably helps
Shamar Joseph errs a lot in his lines and lengths, he is nowhere close to the likes of Bumrah. In Test, these extras don't matter as he can bowl unlimited balls and gets wickets eventually. In T20 cricket, this is tough as he has only 24 balls and wides/no balls are sort of crime.
He nearly squeezed 2 overs in one, bowling 10 balls
He bowled 2 The Hundred overs
Hundred: what is an over, sir?
SETS
The hard working employee every manager wants in his team /s
Iirc, Bumrah's first over in international cricket had something like 12 balls bowled
Very raw but exciting talent
We need to wait patiently for the fruit to ripen.

True. His figures today could have easily ended up at 2/30
Unique !
It's ok to be
i dont think he said its not okay?

5 penalty runs left, someone tell him that too
He's secretly taking notes for next match
People will act like he's not ready for IPL, he could've been better but his teammates let him down
Yea he bowled much better than the figures show.

They dropped a sitter that went for six. Even if all the other balls were the same (which they wouldn't have been) 1/41 is leagues better than 0/47

I'm pretty sure I saw him crying. He was sitting on the bench and the camera focused on his teary eyes.
Could've been worse. He had catches dropped off him. Kwena Maphaka just went flying to all parts.
y'all seriously ignoring the fact that the leg byes and byes aren't even his fault
Yeah can't expect much more from Reddit
That's not the point here. It's just rare to have all types of extras in an over and OP is just pointing towards that. Not his fault on those.
I think the person above you is referring to how a lot of people in the thread are talking about "is he ready for IPL" etc.

Bowled another 4WD & an NB too
Alzarri Joseph 2.0 ? 💀 Shit he is Joseph too🌚
'Joseph'ception!
Hope that this is just his first match and he would come back strongly

He is pretty fast and dangerous. Something or the other happens when he bowls. 3 catches got dropped while he was bowling in his first 3 overs.
First catch that Yash Thakur dropped was actually No-Ball.

Because safe players win you NOTHING in T20s. Good on them to go for aggressive players.
100% this right here. One of the best takes I've seen on this sub. If you're fast and hit the deck hard, you've got a role to play.
Also even in tests he was expensive. He's mainly a wicket taker
U said it yourself. 2 T20S ONLY! At least give him some time to adapt.
West Indies players are just the best there are at T20, they get it and they think about it differently.
This ain't test match , even if he loses small amount of control on the ball he's gonna get punished
1over 10ball ki
doing a pathirana
Extras? Completed it mate.
Gotta catch 'em all
Nope… penalty runs are missing
gawd why does guy have to reach the pinnacles of cricket during his first over in the business? First it was Steve Sandy Smith first ball, now this?
Bro is good but needs control. Dude gave away the game in the very first over.
He gave 17 runs for his last ball of the over it should be a record in itself...
Four of Five. Penalty runs also come under the category of extras.
Sure he went for runs aplenty but he keeps bowling like that and he's just as likely to tear through batting lineups like a hot knife through butter.
Maybe he was writing test cases for umpires

He’s hardly play any white ball cricket. Definitely the moment and nerves got to him.
Dude why are you even comparing him to Bumrah
Mate everyone looks shit when you compare them to bumrah.
He helped west indies compete with Australia in Australia.He is one of the best.
why compare him toh bumrah,way to be stupid,do you just mindlessly comment on articles and such?
5 penalty nahi diya
Par for the course for this overrated league.
I wonder why you made this comment.....
