Bhajji is not been consistent in his line or length. bowls at least 1 or 2 balls on leg side every over and has even struggled on pitches that suits spin bowling. In last 25 matches he has taken only 20 wickets at an average of 46. he doesn't have much variety in his bowling and has become very predictable in his bowling. once batsman hits him for four or six he starts bowling faster and flatter. he doesn't seem to have courage to flight the bowl. excuse is he is not in form. players are not in form for at most 5-10 matches not for over 50 matches, there is something fundamentally wrong with Bhajjis bowling.
I believe he his struggling because he doesn't bowl close to the stumps.Most successful bowlers in game today, mcgrath, pollock , Lee an others bowl close to the stumps. Bowling wide of the crease allows batsman to take front foot outside of off stump and therefore it doesn't matter how much the bowl spins they can't be given out LBW it also allows them to free their arms and sweep
