Damn more damage to their poor craws lol
They are shifting the goalpost claiming that they want him to bowl the googly as this will give him the opportunity to get more wickets. lol I say not

He is improving. Still no googly but seems to have a top spinner that goes straight on with some bounce now. That has caused a bit of mystery for the batsmen as they continue to play for turn on those balls that do not, and that has helped him a great deal. When he gets that googly, he will be deadly.

But, please do not confuse critical analysis with hate. Not everyone that criticised his bowling hates the man.

ARE YOU ONE OF THE USUAL SUSPECTS?

"No googly" is critical analysis, or baseless criticism to make someone look bad?

Anyone who has played some cricket would know that most deliveries could be read from the bowler's hand, or even by the way the seam is rotating, if your eyesight is good enough.

Merely mixing up deliveries alone does not dismiss decent batsmen, unlike what cricketing idiots would assert. Still, posters here have the right to be as idiotic as they could.

One can tell these fellas never played the game. I bowled legspin and hardly used the googly as batsmen read it well. I preferred to use other tricks to get wickets. I was damn good in NY Currygoat too lol

No surprises. You are against Wondies best bowler as you were against Wondies best bastman, Shiv.

The thing is WI fans ask why doesn't Bishoo bowl the googly, but cannot see that Bishoo has been improving despite not bowling the aforementioned delivery.

Why is that not enough for now? Let's focus on improving our other bowlers AND batsmen.

But no... even though the man, Bishoo, is getting wickets now, let's compare him to other top-class leg spinners in the world who possess the googly.

It's a JOKE.

West Indies is at the bottom of barrel. Bishoo is improving. He alone cannot get the team to climb the ladder. Let the others get better and contribute as well.

When a man is doing good. Give him his props. That ALONE will encourage him to do BETTER.

Focus on the rest who need serious improvement.

Sheesh!!!!

Dude, I am not a coach of any player, just a fan.
I compare what I see from my years of watching cricket.
Why only Shiv, were you in a cave when I spoke of Lara and his friendlism?
Why you think I call Fidel Edwards a Netbowler?
I am a fan of cricket

Hola..Bishoo as a leggie is not a certain pick...his numbers are ok but that does not entitle him to auto pick....
He has passed his improving days...and the most we can hope for is 2 er or 3er here and there and just maybe a 5er..but he is not our secret weapon.He is doing well this series...and thats a confidence booster...

Adios

So if the highest ranking bowler in WI is not a certain pick then I am at a loss as to your selection policy.

Who would you select ,now, ahead of him?

 
dayne 2017-11-01 23:20:38 

Congrats to Bishoo, but Roach and Gabriel are rising fast.

Don't need a googly if you can bowl this consistently.

it's a shame the captain don't rate him. maybe if he did, we would be able to actually get the 20 wickets we need to win a match more easily.
