He would have been around 150-155k's, if not 155+. He was clearly much much faster than Waqar and Donald. He was never credited. Hmm! Tough to judge pace without speedgu ns bro but I respect your experience and opinion on this. Rightarmfast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressive T20 bowler, very clever but sorry not international standard. However IPL standard that is pretty high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vishalvirsingh Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 not too happy with Indian fast bowlers..they dont seem to be focussed on bowling fast. Instead All want to be smart and bowl slow balls. even genuine fast bowlers are trying the slow balls too much. folks like khaleel bowl 2 balls fast and 4 slow balls. T20 seems to be not the right place to judge fast bowlers because they need to have variations but problem is when slow balls are more than the fast balls by the same bowler.

Speed gun settings and quality must be having their impacts too. The 1975 and 1976 speed studies produced unusually high speeds readings and the same pacers were clocked around 12 kph slower in 1979. I think jacked up speed readings were given too as near 100 mph readings would have been better for marketing purposes and creating a sensation. mishra and Mosher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishra Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) 19 hours ago, MultiB48 said: looks like MJ type of pace to me. Watch jofra Archer. He just bowls over 90mph effortlessly. Ball doesn’t look that quick but speed guns say different. IMO, without serious runup, reaching close to 100mph isn’t easy. No way to measure but MJ looks slower. My assessment is based on reaction of batsmen. Over 90mph, bats have very lil time to make a moove Edited September 30, 2020 by mishra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they find some really quick bowlers, if all the training and scouting that they have at their disposal can't produce a few 100mph bowlers then what's the point of all this development. 100 mph bowling needs the bowlers to be junooni about pace and pace alone. Most such pacers don't have long enough careers. Most people are very career conscious these days. And there is this lure of playing various T20 leagues for 10 to 15 years and earning enough money for a lifetime. Who will want to bowl at 100 mph and shorten their careers nowadays ? Plus ... bowling so many slower balls messes up their rhythm needed for bowling really quick. Measured bowling at 87 mph to 93 mph/95 mph is what we will get among the quicker bowlers.

I think it’s something to do with genes. In our league, everytime a black bowler appears, he has six packs and atleast six feet tall and fastest in his team. Accuracy is not there but pace definitely belongs to black Caribbean. Its just that not enough black youth is interested in Cricket else, 100 mph is not difficult for them to touch raki05 and Vk1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is down to how you feel during runup. As I mentioned earlier, speed and accuracy in English conditions is very much dependent upon wind. If Archer is bowling from a side with 25+ mph wind blowing drom his back, you can understand it will impact his speed. I don’t think guns are that jacked up as other bowlers in English team are measured around 82-85. Same become medium pacer in India.

No they don’t touch 100 moh. But if you get big enough sample size interested in cricket, you can achieve it from them. Honestly, I have been awed by some of things I have seen them doing at physical level. For example by the time you have run 5 yds, you see that lad has covered 15 yds and pickung the ball even before you while fielding. There is something special in them. What others achieve by putting hrs in training, is generally natural to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
