Arshdeep Singh is now a new star for Team India, left hand pacer taken 33 wickets in 21 matches in his debut year.
Former Australia pacer Brett Lee, has opined that the Arshdeep Singh must not focus just on brute pace and instead look to maintain his line and length.
“We often hear about fast bowlers trying to bowl too fast. Don’t be obsessed with bowling at 160 kph ball every time. On one hand, I would always say bowl as quick but you also ought to bowl that right line and length. We talk about bowlers trying to bowl too fast, they lose their shape, rhythm, and seam position. Make sure you work on optimizing what is your best speed and work on your execution,” said Lee on his channel.
“It will come from practice and bowling line and length. Can you bowl fast and have a good line and length? Of course, but don’t try to bowl every ball at 160. That would be the best way for Arshdeep. At the same time, don’t be bowling all slower balls every single time. Work on containing that speed but sometimes take 5 kph off and hit that line and length. Get that wicket. That is my advice to you,” added the Aussie great.
“Keep working on your skills in domestic cricket, because when there is no big World Cups, and you’re not playing Test cricket, there aren’t any spectators. This is where you have to shine. So, this is what I believe what was the bread and butter of my career. Going back to first-class cricket, enjoy the quietness of the crowd and hone and build those skills. If you can look after that, the high-level will follow,” Lee further added.
