When it comes to bowling, I don’t really think that workload management is a good idea: R.P. Singh

Siraj arrived, carried on working, and gained entry to the Indian teams: R.P. Singh. In the midst of a hectic cricket season, the administration of the Indian team has fervently tackled the frustrating problem of player injuries. A wise policy has been implemented that gives players, particularly fast bowlers and those who play in all three forms, the luxury of occasional rest in between series.

There is no denying the wealth of right-arm pacers available to India across all forms, but there is a regrettable gap—there is no elite left-arm pacer. The recent performances of T Natarajan, Arshdeep Singh, and Jaydev Unadkat have all shown promise, but their electrifying performances have not yet solidified into a strong foundation that will guarantee their positions.

Unadkat, an intriguing right-arm pacer, is included in India’s ODI team for the current three-match series against the West Indies, but India decided to give Mukesh Kumar, a left-arm pacer, a chance to make his debut. Unadkat, who last appeared on the ODI stage in 2013, was unceremoniously ignored in the meanwhile.

Star left-arm pacer R.P. Singh

A former cricketer for India, expresses concern about the negative effects of bowlers’ limited exposure to red-ball cricket on their development. His pursuit of bowling greatness overcomes the limitations imposed by effective time management.

“There’s a lot of debate going on. When it comes to bowling, I don’t really believe in workload management. You should regulate your workload at the gym rather than bowling. Those who bowle less. Your muscles will get stronger the more you bowl, Singh reportedly said, according to Hindustan Times.

“We’ve changed from a system where bowlers would spend an uninterrupted hour and a half bowling in the nets. That is how you get better at bowling. Your bond with the ball needs to be fostered. Lack of quality pacers, specifically left-arm pacers, is mostly due to domestic cricket players not participating in four-day matches, he continued.

He takes inspiration from Mohammed Siraj, a role model who was once thought of as just being good for Test cricket. Siraj represents the paradigm shift gained through persistent effort. As a result, the left-arm pacers must adhere to Siraj’s procedure.

“For this reason, left-arm pacers work in spurts and are inconsistent. Considering how good Arshdeep plays in T20s, you can employ him in lengthier formats. Mohsin, they have risen and fallen. Siraj arrived, was occasionally pricey, but he persisted in working hard and made it into the Indian teams in all formats. His chart is rising. The left-arm pacers must adhere to Singh’s graph, he said.
