Ishant is so great that IPL is very small platform for someone as "TALENTED" as Ishant. So currently he is mentoring Dale Steyn and is teaching Dale Steyn how to ball in test cricket..
those who are commenting on ishant's bowling average of 35, please note that he has bowled on india's dust bowls all the times which offer absolutely no help to seamers. no swing, no bounce on indian wickets. plus indian captains ask seamers to bowl long spells. plus indian fielders drop lot of catches in the slips whenever fast bowlers bowl well. considering all these factors ishant has done very well at least in test matches. he has also won india the champions trophy final. he is not good in twenty twenty. he should focus on playing county cricket in england like cheteshwar pujara.
there is nothing like best fast bowler in India. They do extremely well in the beginning and then well in patches, then they loose their pace and bowl at 125-130 from 140 plus. The funny thing is they try to bounce out opposition batsmen at 125kph
Ishant Sharma has not improved his bowling after giving him a very long rope.Yadav has done well.Pravin Kumar is over the hills but he is a quality bowler.

This BCCI should give chances to young players like Sandeep Sharma at least in ODIs instead of "about to retire" players like Stuart Binny.
