World Cup 2023: “Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah are such excellent bowlers that Indian team’s bowling coach Paras Mhambrey does not need to discuss technique with them, due to which the conversation between them is only strategic.” Bowled brilliantly in the 100-run victory in the cup, due to which the Indian team was successful in achieving its sixth consecutive victory. Both Bumrah and Shami bowlers took full advantage of the pitch in floodlights and Mhambrey says that both are in their best form, hence there is no need to tell him anything on the technical aspect.
“There is no need to discuss.”
Due to team combination, Shami could not play in the first four matches but considering his performance against New Zealand and England, he cannot be kept out of the playing eleven. Mhambrey said, ‘When you have players with so much skill in the team, you don’t really need to talk about it. These players have played so much cricket that they completely understand what the team needs from them. He said, ‘I wish I could say that we had discussed and planned this in the team. We have such great bowlers in our team and they are so experienced that it makes my job easier.
They understand everything!
The former Indian fast bowler said after Sunday’s win, ‘At this level it is a matter of player management. He has played a lot of cricket, he understands everything. I don’t need to tell much about technique, I just talk about strategy. In this also, implementation is important and credit goes to them for this. Talking about the brilliant opening spell of Bumrah and Shami, England lost four wickets for 39 runs while chasing the target of 230 runs. Talking about this, Mhambrey said that wickets were needed at that time and these two bowlers helped the team. Got wickets.
The wicket was flattened in the powerplay!
He said, ‘The initial spell of Bumrah and Shami was very important for the match, we were defending a small target.’ Mhambrey feels that India should have scored 30-40 more runs, saying, ‘The wicket became flat in the powerplay. The way he bowled and took wickets laid our foundation. After this the trend of the match moved towards us. For the first time in the tournament, India batted first and except Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav, most of the batsmen were out in an attempt to increase the run rate.
The team can improve some things before the three league matches
The bowling coach says that the team can improve some things before the remaining three league matches. He said, ‘Everyone got a chance to bat here, which was important. The way Virat, Rohit and Shubman are playing, the middle order did not get a chance to bat. Although KL Rahul got a chance in Chennai. So it was important for everyone to get a chance and this was one such match.
but the ball was not coming on the bat
Mhambrey said, ‘But the ball was not coming on the bat, due to which the conditions were difficult for batting. Despite this he played well. I think some things need improvement. Star all-rounder Hardik Pandya could not play the last two matches due to an ankle injury suffered against Bangladesh. He is recovering from this injury and should be available for selection before the semi-finals. Mhambrey did not give much information regarding Hardik’s return. He said, “The medical team is providing care and is in full contact with Hardik and the NCA. We hope to get an update in two days.
