The new bowling sensation today is the lanky teenager India's Ishant Sharma.
He has bowled superly in Australia, he does not seem to have time for haircut,but the finest batsman of Australia and Sri Lanka are discovering that with his swing movements he does not give them ample time to negotiate and attempts to cut them down.
Ishant had shown talent in the Bangalore Test against Pakistan, he has since than imporved on his pace and movement on his tour to Australia.
The cricketing pundits are all praise for the young talented Ishant, can he touch 150kmph is the big question and if he does India will have a genuine fast bowler.
The cricketing greats say about Ishant........
Wasim Akram The sultan of swing and former Pakistan bowling legend
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Ishant can be more lethal if he tries to bowl from the closer to the stumps. At Melbourne he touched 149 kmph and with this kind of line that is deadly. But I that he has the ability to hit high speeds consistanly and even cross the 150kmph mark.
Ricky Ponting Australian Captian
---------------------------------
He is tall he hits the deck pretty hard and gets a little bit of inconsitent bounce off the wicket. He has looked dangerous with the angles he creates, he can be pretty dangerous against the left handers he swings the ball away from the left handers very efficiently.

Ishant Sharma is the next superstar of world cricket. When you consitently knock down the world No I batsman Ricky Ponting than you have made it in my book.

Ishant is probably the best bowler of swing in the world today. He is more than a promising prospect for the country.
