I try to bowl similarly as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/RJ-Harris-c2330 – Cricket News Update
In his recent interview with ESPNcricinfo, Australia’s fast bowler, Ryan Harris, admitted that he tries to bowl on the same lines as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757’s pacer, Dale Steyn, who currently stands out as the top graded bowler on the International Cricket Council
(http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625) Test rankings for the best bowlers under the format.
“I try to bowl similarly to what he does, bowl fast out-swingers, so I guess we’re similar in a way. I’ve watched him a fair bit, there’s obviously reasons why he’s the No.1 fast bowler in the world,” Harris told ESPNcricinfo.
Although Harris does admit that Steyn stands out as the most effective bowler under the format, but unlike the Aussie the Proteas star has a longer career and Test experience as an added advantage.
Steyn, who is younger in age, has already played 46 Tests for his side, bagging 238 wickets, but on the other hand, the 32-year-old http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Harris-c61739 has only had 7 outings with the Australian side so far, securing 31 wickets from the lot.
However, the Aussie speedster recently starred for his touring side, against the Sri Lankan hosts, where Harris stood out to be the most causative bowler for the Kangaroos.
Unfortunately for the player, Harris was omitted from the team after suffering a hamstring injury.
The right armed pacer, who was recently involved in the Australian domestic competition, Sheffield Shield, will now be flying off to South Africa, where the pacer will join his roster for the upcoming Test outing against the hosts, set to kick off on November
9, 2011, in Cape Town.
Opining about the favourable field conditions in South Africa, Harris also comprehended that though he has not had a chance to play on the African turf, but given the recent outings, the setting may just turn out to be quite favourable for the side.
“Although I haven’t played over there in Tests I’ve had experience in our conditions that are nearly as close to if not the same as conditions over there. I’m confident I can do a good job over there and I’m aiming to take the form I had in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 over
there with me,” said Harris.
