Davendra Bishoo

His name, a corruption of Devandra Vishnu, has the potential to become a very good lower order batter, in fact, I sometimes feel his batting can become better than his bowling.

I would love to see him develop his batting. He can become a Daniel Vettori.

Stop your shit man, I have seen Bishoo against fast bowlers and he shapes up well enough, given more chances up the order and he will be a good allrounder.He has played the night watchman on some ocassions, and done it very well indeed, against fast bowlers to boot.

True, most of his runs are against Pakistan quicks including Wahab.

Who are these fast bowlers that you saw him face??? From what I saw this evening when it was short Bishoo didn't look comfortable at all. Good fighting hand though well done

That is very true, and we know Wahab generate up to 148kph, in fact most Pak fast men generate pace in the 90s mph.I also believe Bishoo can be a good allrounder.

I am not going to fault you for your superstition belief- you are free to believe what you want. I do not believe that if you say good things about a batter, he will then get out.

Before this thread what was his score?


Again, I respect your right to hold this belief system.

Man I can't believe how Bishoo picked up cricket cause he's afraid of the ball

 
doosra 2017-04-22 16:27:21 

Bishoo had played a number of good innings for WI

He's got close to 500 runs already.

Did you not see him play today? When they went short he backed away to leg or just swiped after that. I'm not saying he can't be an all rounder if he works at his batting but for now he like most is still vulnerable to pace. But Bishoo has heart and I like that about him.

Cheers

Bishoo was stepping away and flashing outside off.

I don't know what cricket you were watching.

A useful player, when the bowling isn't quick.

Bowl outside off or into the ribs lol

Being uncomfortable against pace and being scared are two different things. I don't think he is scared. How many of WI top order bats are comfortable with pace.....
