Its got to be pathan, santh needs a few more games to improve as a strike bowler

Pathan all the way - although Sreesanth has been more effective in the recent test series but not the one day series. That becasue the white ball swings more than the red ball - especially in the sub continent - so expect to see Pathan back at his best in the test series against Windies! Gonna be 4-1 India in the ODI s and 3-0 India in test I reckon.

it has to be pathan. sreesanth is still inexperienced and he has to prove his consistency. santh is looking impressive and he might become a very good bowler in times to come but at present pathan is the main pace bowler for india

yes i agree with u but he sometimes tries too hard and thus has to pay for it. i like his bowling and if he maintains his line and length he can be a very good bowler. he has a good pace and also has the ability to take wickets

and sreesanth's six wickets were also in the slog overs and that too of tailenders. no doubt his bowling was good but still he got wickets because the players were trying to slog.

How can you say that Pathan's wickets come fromt he tail enders- he is probably the most reknowned bowler int he world now for picking up key wickets in his first three overs - he does it every time to the top order batsmen.

yes thats true i was just referring to sehwag no 1's comments. i haven't checked the stats. and yes pathan is the one who gets most of his wickets in first spell. so he has the best batsman's wicket

Yes, Pathan get out most valuble players in the team. Sreesanth got some pretty good techniques. Did you see the last wicket that Sreesanth took in Abu Dhabi. He took out the middle stump. They was coool.

santh is young and aggresive but he has improved a lot. still he has a long way to go in international cricket.

pathan is still the main bowler and will be in the near future. his batting is also improving and he is a vital player for the team

99% of people would say Pathan, he is an allrounder.
Sreesanth has played enough cricket yet.
