Trent Bridge Review

[local /wp-content/uploads/2011/07/2nd-test-review-Trent-Bridge.flv nolink]

This season in English County, every 2nd game teams manage to score 400!.

18 Teams play 138 games in Two Division in English County.

This season, at the end of 88 games, 54 times teams manage to go past the 400 score, which is about every second game a total of 400 is scored by a Team.

An excellent opportunity for Indian Team!!

…….neverthless 22 times teams were forced to follow-on, which works up to 25%, not a good sign for Indians.

 

Major Partnership density is in middle order (56 %)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Earlier in July, game between Nottinghamshire v Somerset could be a confidence factor for India!.

India’s Batting partnership since 2004

(Consistent at top, neverthless tapers towards the end)

 

 


24 Jul 2011 Last updated at 10:07 amDravid needs to score fast if he is with lower order!.

What is a job of a top order batsman when he is batting with lower order/tail?.


1- If they are batting first, then look to score as many runs as possible with a better strike rate.

2- If they are replying a 1st Inning score, then make sure they come as close as possible(after avoiding follow on) to that score, by building partnerships with tail, and have a strike rate at which his partner(lower/tail) is comfortable with (some tail-enders like to be scoreless and stick around as long as they can, some like to hit boundaries every second ball).

 

Neverthless Rahul Dravid’s innings had value in terms of personal landmark, and averting follow on, but could he along with lower order posted substantial  partnerships, and come much closer to England’s 1st inn score ?.

 

Lately Dravid has been involved with lower order partnerships, yet India couldn’t reach 400 or even 300, so is it possible for him to change his batting style, and bat faster ?

 

If that happens, then partnerships can be build.

Here one is not suggesting 50 or 100 runs, but partnerships of 30s,/40s can be substantial runs for  teams.

 

India’s current line-up is blessed with excellent lower order strikers, and they have enough experience  batting with top batsmen.

 

Here one feels Dravid should change his batting style, and once that happens, the fielding side will become defensive, and instead of attacking to pick wickets, they would try and stop runs, which will allow Dravid to  build partnerships with lower order, and India can score decent total consistently.

Here is a look at Dravid’s involvement in partnerships  with lower order batsmen in Test cricket.

Rahul Dravid’s Partnerships with lower order batsmen(All Tests)

Stand Inns Runs 50+ 100+ Avg
6th Wkt 42 1855 12 3 46.38
7th Wkt 29 638 3 0 22.79
8th Wkt 20 578 1 2 30.42
9th Wkt 15 371 4   24.73
10th Wkt 8 37     4.63

 

Now, if one has to sum up all these partnerships (add all lower order partnerships), then Dravid’s involvement with tail fetched India @23 Runs/Wkt.

 

… If one has to compare this analysis with Ricky Ponting, his contemporary Test No .3 batsman, then his involvement with tail has fetched Australia 42 Runs/Wkt.

 

Ricky Ponting’s Partnerships with lower order batsmen (Batting Position No.3,since 2001)

Stand Inns Runs 50+ 100+ Avg
6th Wkt 34 1354 9 2 43.68
7th Wkt 22 585 2 1 29.25
8th Wkt 14 636 5 1 48.92
9th Wkt 8 60     7.50
10th Wkt 5 51     10.20

 

They both have different batting style, and there is nothing much in terms of average (unless one can measure strike rate of each partnerships) neverthless Dravid  can take a leaf from this Aussie.

17 Jul 2011 Last updated at 10:26 amIndia -West Indies Test Review(June-July)2011.

[local /wp-content/uploads/2011/07/2011-India-in-West-Indies.-A-Test-Review.flv nolink]

 

India beat West Indies (1-0) in 3 Test series, and winning their 2nd consecutive series against West Indies.

India’s Key Performers

Rahul Dravid In every inning he came in to bat inside the 10th over, & thrice in his presence team almost scored 100 runs, yet it didn’t allow India to reach 300 once. If Dravid can play a bit faster, at least 1 scoring shot in less than 4 balls, & bat long enough, then Mr. Consistent can be more productive.

VVS Laxman Like Rahul he too came into bat when India were in trouble, but his contribution as a batsman and as a player was far more than Dravids.

In last 2 test matches his scoring rate was much  better than his strike rate, as he was able to rotate the strike ( last 2 Test matches featured 60 % singles/ 25 +singles/100 balls). If Laxman, like Dravid play more aggressively then India’s lower order can be far more effective than other nation.

Suresh Raina Considering that he came into Test series with a very poor ODI series, this was an excellent performance, truly coming of age for this young batsman.

His performance marked the making of a Test player. Involved in most 100 partnerships(3), and he always performed when team where in trouble. His excellent scoring rate (3.43) allowed those partnerships to grow.

Praveen Kumar Accurate and effective, without bowling a single error ball (no ball & wide).

Ishant Sharma Making an excellent comeback to Test cricket. Consistent pace and accuracy was the key factor in his bowling. His accuracy fetched him 10 straight ball dismissal, adding to this 54% of victims were in single figure!.

West Indies Key Performers

Darren Sammy : Excellent performance, both as a leader and as a player. His captaincy will only get better provided he can be given more time and games to lead in all format (at least ODI & Tests)

Openers : West Indies opener provided the only 50 runs stand for the 1st wicket in this series (Indian opener failed, avg 9.16). They need to back themselves while playing aggressively. With more opportunities

West Indies selectors need to give more opportunity(at least 3 to 4 Test series) to these selected openers. Barath & Simmons are technically sound openers, and they can be the answer to their Batting problem.

Darren Bravo : Bats very similar to Chanderpaul, slow and steadily building partnerships.

Samuels & Chanderpaul : Their experience can be handy for West Indies in near future, and if they are able to play a little faster, than it is possible for team to score 300 consistently, and give themselves enough  opportunity to win Test matches….which has been a rarity for them.

Fidel  Edwards : Expensive but effective, and if turns consistent than he can be very lethal.

Ravi Rampaul : Excellent performance, especially with the new ball. It is very difficult for one to remember a West Indian genuinely swing a   ball, as one associates seam and bounce from Caribbean bowlers. Rampaul has the ability to control his swing.

Devendra Bishoo : It’s a rarity that a rookie leg spinners is level headed, in-expensive, yet productive. Troubled experienced batsmen  with his basic leg spinning ball.

In cricket, a team’s platform has to be build by openers so that they along with middle order can produce a total, which will give enough opportunity for their bowlers to defend and win games in all format of cricket.

Team’s 50% (and more) of winning depends on their openers.

In openers category, one also should include opening bowling pair, as they are Fielding Team’s Openers!.
