Which thread holds the record for most views, Chair? Kwami's Calypso Boys must surely be near the top.

Both Jimmy and Dale struggling with ongoing injuries after turning 33.  :'(

What makes this even more frustrating is both are still performing at a high level, it is just a case of struggling to stay on the field due to injuries that hit fast bowlers after they turn 33.

Jimmy missed the Test series with Bangladesh, and Dale Steyn faces an extended layoff with a fractured shoulder.  :'(

Did I read Jimmay was flying out for the 2nd Test .


Re: The fast bowlers decline - dillinger10 - 11-06-2016

Yes, I saw this morning that it appears as though he is slightly ahead of schedule and will at least be in contention for selection for the second Test in Visakhapatnam. Despite his recent ongoing injury struggles, he has been fantastic when able to get on the field, averaging 19.24 with the ball and a strike rate of 50.8.

Over the last 10 years, Jacques Kallis, Ryan Harris, Chaminda Vaas and Chris Martin are the only fast bowlers to have bowled in at least 25 innings after turning 33.
