NIKITA MILLER THE MOST UNDERRATED PROLIFIC WICKET TAKER
Justice for The Killa!
In reply to XDFIX
West indies cricket is full of prolific Spinners at regional level who were ignored neglected and misused despite
turning in stellar performances season after season.
Look at Badree for example to use a current example...it took years for the WI selectors to give him a look in.
Unless there is something different about Nikita Miller...all I can say to him is Join the club.
In reply to johndom90
The only difference is that from this era, where FC cricket is concerned, he is by far the most prolific of them all, so I guess they are the ones joining his club.
I mean every other spinner averages between 21 and 28 with the ball in FC cricket. He averages under 17.
In reply to JahJah
There is one that averages 17 after 12 matches with 54 wickets and he is only 21 yrs old and lots of upside. I'll rather work with that one than a 34 yr old Miller
My opinion though.........
In reply to Kay... well now that he is here I will agree, but what about before that?
In reply to johndom90
Miller has not gotten a fair shot. if the domestic competition is ostensibly used to select the test team, then with his extended dominance, he should have had a decent run. Some folks on here say he can only get dung heap batsmen out. that is idiotic and hypocritical logic. He doesnt select the batsmen in the domestic competition, his job is to get them out. only way to be certain if he can get real batsmen out is to play him in tests.
this is not like the 80s where Ranjie Nanan and Clyde Butts couldn't get in because we were doing a four prong pace attack.
They treated this guy shabbily.
In reply to Kay
You clearly missed the point. Not surprising.
In reply to natty_forever
Exactly. These guys don't read (carefully) and comprehend.
In reply to JahJah
Why don't you ever comment on technicals of the game? You just regurgitate numbers with your Jamaican bias thrown in. If you think Miller is so damn good, just present the case with the technical nuances.
I have noticed this often. You hardly ever talk about finer points of the game. You can atleast attempt to present your deep insight into Jamaican players.
Numbers are boring! Anybody with an internet connection can look it up and talk isht!
In reply to Khaga
Sachin 100 100s is not numbers? You don't have a problem with talking about that without ever going into the any finer points of the game.
What about Ashwin, the pelting home bully and away kitten? Go dive into those nuances.
Miller's dominance is there to be seen in the numbers, which is enough.
In reply to JahJah
I can talk about Sachin's straight drives, Lara's cover drives,Ashwin's carrom balls,Gayle's brute force, Virat Kohli's forceful off drives and many more.
Show me you can get out of the number prison and talk about the game! I dare you..
In reply to Khaga
isn't it a numbers game?
give me Shiv's numbers any day over some more pleasing fellows with lower numbers!
In reply to Khaga
I talk about what I want to talk about. I don't need to copy what some commentator says, like you do, and come back here and parade it as my own.
In reply to camos
If it weren't so Hooper would be king, innit.
In reply to JahJah
BWHAHAHAHAHA! you don't even watch the facking game 90% of the time..you just copy paste some numbers and then beat the Jamaican chest..
In reply to Khaga
90% of the time no one can watch the regional matches since they are hardy ever shown.
Now please do tell us more about the commentators told you.
In reply to JahJah
Through your black prism with a tinge of insularity
In reply to JahJah
Do you watch international games?
In reply to gvenkat
Explain.
In reply to gvenkat
Yes, next question.
In reply to JahJah
Explain how the DRS system works! What are the issues that you see it its current implementation?
In reply to Khaga
Open a thread for DRS. This about Miller.
In reply to JahJah
This is about your cricket knowledge..
Miller time is over. I claim that you are a cricket dunce and a half-ass number warrior with insularity as the prime motivator.
In reply to Khaga
You are asking too much from him bro.. Jamiacan DRS/DL?? Come on.. you know better
In reply to Khaga
This thread is about Miller and his treatment. If you want to discuss DRS, the umpire's call and all other issues pertaining to it, go discuss it with someone who gives a damn.
In reply to JahJah
You don't give a damn about DRS because it doesn't get used in Jamaica matches?
In reply to gvenkat
Stop blowing Surya and explain what you meant. How has Miller not been dominant?
In reply to JahJah
So you don't? And hence proved that you are a cricketing dunce..
In reply to Khaga
Because that shit is minor to me. Simple as that.
In reply to JahJah
Has he not been tried and tested in international cricket many times like Devon Smith?
In reply to JahJah
Cricket is your minor..Insularity is your major!
In reply to gvenkat
Yes, whatever you feel. No explain what you said regarding Miller on this MILLER THREAD.
I'm waiting.
In reply to gvenkat
He was tried once in Test cricket, which is what we are discussing as we are no playing FC and not List A cricket, you idiot.
In reply to JahJah
Replacing bishoo?? Get real..
In reply to Khaga
Swedish meatball JahJah has never seen La Femme Nikita bowl. The only thing he knows about Nikita Miller is that he/she is Jamaican, and his/her name is Nikita Miller.
The last time that Swedish meatball lover watched a game of cricket, the Waste Indies were still terrorizing people.
In reply to Devin
I seriously doubt if Jahjah knows what type of a bowler Miller is, without googling..
In reply to gvenkat
You seriously are an unintelligent cretin. Who is talking about replacing anyone at this point???
Is stalking cricketers, getting close to them, smiling with them and then carrying news about them, is all you know?
Clearly this dude's time is past. He is mid 30s! What we are discussing is the chances he got in the type of cricket he was most successful...the long form.
Now please to fact off with your boyfriend in tow.
In reply to Khaga
I know he's not a wear long sleeves to pelt bowler like Ashwin.
In reply to JahJah
So,what's Miller's stock delivery to a left handed batsman?
The Three Stooges are here to lotion each other. Interesting.
In reply to JahJah
Something is strange about Gvenkat and to a lesser extent his 'pardner' who wants you to write about what he decides is of interest to him and should be of interest to you. And when you choose to defend your right to focus on what concerns you he makes it a racial issue.
Did these guys attend classes in the mastery of racism or is it in the genes?
In reply to JahJah
You have camos...bring batty_forever along..
I saw Nikita bowl once, he reminded me of a left arm version of Rawle Lewis. Extremely innocuous and ineffective.
Spinners in the Caribbean are completely useless, and the batsmen are ever worse because they continue to let these mediocre trundlers bamboozle them.
For God's sake, Mahendra Nagamootoo, Ryan Hinds and Rawle Lewis use to give these batsmen diarrhea.
In reply to Khaga
The skunt just said Ashwin wears long sleeves. When was the last time Ashwin wore long sleeves?
In reply to JahJah
So basically it's a whining/bitching excercise for your countryman? The usual act of crying wolf about injustice done to a jamaican.. got it..
In reply to Headley
I was wondering if that is what he was doing talking about 'black prism' but I see how quick he was to abandon this line of argument.
I'd love for him to revisit though.
In reply to Khaga
In reply to Devin
Clearly shows he does not see any cricket.
In reply to JahJah
Correction : Make it Jamaican prism..
In reply to Devin
The skunt just said Ashwin wears long sleeves. When was the last time Ashwin wore long sleeves?
Jahjah doesn't watch international cricket..his international cricket is limited to Jamaica vs .......
In reply to gvenkat
Who is whining and bitching? I know you and your crew do that for a living.
We are simply stating facts. That's a crime now?
In reply to JahJah
So, Ashwin wears long sleeves?
Bring Yadi along to recite poetry so he can set the mood. I'll see if I can get hold of Virat who will be able to bring Gayle, since she's staying at Virat's house.
In reply to JahJah
What's Miller's stock delivery to a left hand batsman?
In reply to Khaga
And Jamaican cricket isn't broadcasted anywhere, not even the radio. He must be playing out these games in his head, something that he's accustomed to doing.
In reply to JahJah
You.
http://www.dnaindia.com/sport/report-ravichandran-ashwin-says-bowling-in-long-sleeves-gives-competitive-edge-to-spinners-1975169
Hehehehe, indeed.
In reply to gvenkat
Show me the whining and bitching about Miller not getting selected. Can't wait to see it.
In reply to JahJah
Did he ever bowl with one though? He is calling out the chuckers
In reply to Devin
English language comprehension. So you're admitting he has worn long sleeves, correct?
In reply to gvenkat
So he wore it just to bat?
Anyway, let's stick to what this thread is about.
Start a thread for home bullyism if you want to talk about Ashwin like you try to do about Vernon.
In reply to JahJah
BTW, this is about Miller..lets continue..
Even here Miller gets no props - thread overrun!
No justice! No peace!
Miller would be 35 in May 2017, with a career of no wickets in his only test match and 41 wickets in 46 ODI's, it would be a miracle to give anodda shot at the senior level... the funny thing is the same bunch of fcuks calling for Miller are the same one dat knock other spinners in de region!
If only Mikey hadnt run them and dem prisimious no toilet training self from Sabina Park
A threat at the regional level only . We have had a plethora of spinners who cannot trouble international batsmen .
R.Lewis
I Roots
Shane S.
A. Jaggernauth
R. Austin
to name a few
Real spinners in the region that can trouble international batsmen are Bishoo, Badree , Narine and Benn and Gayle when he gives it a turn . I am not sold on Warrican , K.Braff is another player who can bowl as well as R. Chase and Permaul.
