Neil WAGNER: The Ultramodernist | CRICKET Video Essay

Dude, this is the best cricket channel in KZbin. The research and data that goes behind the video is superb. Keep up the brilliant work please.

[@lornz5374]

what a great doco, being a NZer, i have been aware of the points you mention, but not in the objective ways you mention...one thing i should add... the absolute strength, stamina and courage required to bowl short all day is rare to find in one person, this is the reason he is admired by opposition cricketers from all over the world, esp the Aussies, they know its incredibly difficult physically to bowl the way Wagner does for hour after hour, and they also know its the reason nobody else has been able to copy his prodigious wicket taking feats with this type of bowling, nobody else in world cricket has the stamina to do it..

[@rohitrockzz6139]

@@shikhargovil9579 he just confuses players with continuous bounces and suddenly takes wicket......remember how he tortured rahane

[@DoubleMonoLR]

@@shikhargovil9579 Exactly, some people act like 'anyone' could get wickets by bouncing 'all the time'(which he doesn't anyway), but his control is exceptional, not to mention the ability to bowl so much with minimal injuries. This year he returned to domestic T20 cricket in NZ after not playing T20 for years - his first match back = 3 wickets in the first couple of overs, for a few runs, with no bouncers of course. And still as intense as always. Albeit Kyle Jamieson tonked him around in his last over.

He's a consistent sacrificial nightwatchman who still holds the record for first and only 5 wickets in a 6 ball over in First Class (W,W,W,W,.,W).. he's so much fun to watch!
