Pont.......hmm
Are you sure you are not missing the "ing"?
Any other news when he is joining?

[MohammedC]

One man claims he can make any bowler bowl faster. Ian Pont, Essex's bowling coach, has just released a book, The Fast Bowler's Bible, in which he slips the handbrake and attempts to demystify the science of biomechanics. Natural sceptics Jenny Thompson - (a military-medium county player) - and Andrew Miller - (a fast-medium 3rd XI player) - went along to see if he really could deliver the goods.

জাতীয় দলের বোলিং কোচ ইয়ান পন্ট

ঢাকা: জাতীয় ক্রিকেট দলের নতুন বোলিং কোচ হলেন ইংল্যান্ডের সাবেক পেস বোলার ইয়ান পন্ট। আপাতত বিশ্বকাপ পর্যন্ত তার সঙ্গে চুক্তি করবে বাংলাদেশ ক্রিকেট বোর্ড (বিসিবি)।

বিসিবির মিডিয়া কমিটির প্রধান জালাল ইউনুস মঙ্গলবার বাংলানিউজটোয়েন্ট� �ফোর.কম.বিডিকে জানান, ইংলিশ এই বোলিং বিশেষজ্ঞ কোচের সঙ্গে সমস্ত বিষয়ে ফয়সালা হয়ে গেছে। ঢাকায় পৌঁছানোর পর বাকি আনুষ্ঠানিকতা সম্পন্ন হবে। বৃহস্পতিবার ঢাকায় আসবেন জাতীয় দলের নতুন বোলিং কোচ।

পন্ট বর্তমানে ইংলিশ কাউন্ট্রি ক্লাব নর্দামটনশায়ারে ফাস্ট বোলিং পরামর্শক হিসেবে দায়িত্ব পালন করছেন। এর আগে নেদারল্যান্ডস জাতীয় ক্রিকেট দলের প্রধান কোচ হিসেবে কাজের অভিজ্ঞতা আছে সাবেক এই ইংলিশ ক্রিকেটারের।

স্লো বল ডেলিভারির বিষয়ে বিশ্বের অন্যতম সেরা কোচও তিনি।

বাট বাট...আই থট হি ইস এ ফাস্ট বওলিং কোচ...
স্লও বওলিং কোচ দিয়া কি করমু?
At-least he cant ask Rasel to bowl more slow!!

[Equinox]

There is some controversy around him over the Atul Sharma affair but his coaching credentials are clear cut. Definitely a better and cheaper choice than Klusener. He is one of the few coaches nowadays who put pace above everything else. Rubel could turn out to be lethal under him.

On a long term, yeah, but accuracy/variations is the key in flat/slow subcontinent pitches in LOI. He should work on that too. But I agree with you, can see Rubel going places under him if he's half good as what reports suggest.

Thursday the 16th

[nakibahmed]

"Pont's latest discovery is The World's Best Slower Ball known as The SLOB (Slower Obsolete Delivery), which is hailed as a breakthrough as it drops like a stone into the batting crease when appearing to be a beamer. His coaching web site is www.maverickscricket.com"

He doesn't sound bad,first time i heard of him to be honest.

We found the fast bowling coach fast.
He is coming fast (at 16th) and to coach our fast bowlers .."how to bowl slow balls"

Confused....

[roman]

I want to Wish Mr. Pont all the best. His biography looks good. I am just curious to know what our beloved lotus state of mind is as BCB managed to get a much better coach than Klusener. Bechara lotus ki seka tai na khailo...

They dont need to learn" how to bowl slow" because they already bowl slow

[beshideshi]

To be honest, when I first heard "Ian pont" I was like "oh god another no-one". then I checked his coaching career and must say BCB has taken a wise decision, a much much better choice than Klusner. He should be just the coach that our team needs to break through.

[nsd3]

He proposed Dutch players living overseas to be eligible to play in Dutch Domestic League to improve the domestic structure. I guess he might have given the advice to Siddons when we heard BD was kind of thinking of bringing in UK based Bangladeshi cricketers to play in Dhaka League.

[Miraz]

Ian Pont is a much better choice than Klusenar. He has a coaching pedigree and is know as a hard working individual.

I think so too Miraz bhai.
All the best to our new Bowling Coach Mr. Ian Pont


Also, BCB don't have to pay for Klusenar's vacation too!!!

[_Rafi_]

Yeah, I also googled him. Seems very good coach and very knowledgeable. Wrote a book named "the bowlers bible".
Very impressive!
