Why is WI pace attack

Looking so much more inferior to Pakistan, when on paper they are suppose to be much better

Absolutely no life or drive in the team, Chase to my mind is an absentee captain.

Compare this to the vocalness and back slapping of the Pakistani players when they were bowling.

This is where we miss De Silva

@Conorboy

De Silva is a pace bowler?

Sun, Jul 26, '26 at 4:30 PM

@Kay

No, but he brings life and enthusiasm behind the wicket, continually praising and chirping

Hope look disinterested and Chase likewise.

@Conorboy

You are right, they were just going through the motion

Sun, Jul 26, '26 at 9:43 PM

I expect them to come back strong tomorrow. Like it or not Aljo is missed.

Could it be because the game isn't being played on paper?

The WI pacers were many times lacking discipline, they were spraying the ball all over, on the 3rd morning hopefully they are more accurate, they should get some help from the overnight covering of the pitch

@dayne

without doubt discipline is key ...but wouldn't rule out that the group has been undermined an hence not performing πŸ’― because of the Aljo affair an the unnecessary utterances of the egomaniac boss man!!

@voiceofreason

It’s always better in the future for you and thus escape every performance milestone target. In other aspects of life this is exemplary

@Halliwell

The bowling unit has been excellent for the better part of 3- 4years so they are entitled to one or two off days. Cricket Complainers.COM.

@bird

They are no better than Pakistan. Pakistan wickets do not help their pacers

Mon, Jul 27, '26 at 10:25 AM

@voiceofreason

They are excellent on helpful wickets

Mon, Jul 27, '26 at 10:50 AM

@Baje

Exactly πŸ’―

These pacers have flattering averages because they've bowled on 27 all out pitches.

Now that they're bowling on wickets more akin to those in Pakistan, they're finding out that they have to work a lot harder.

Man allyuh with all kind of variables to trivialize this team's progress.

4 down!
