Are England bowlers on a low protein diet?

129 kph? Kya ho raha hai? 

 

Is feminism to be blamed here? Most women in UK have become masculine, lack of testosterone everywhere...

they bowl slow because eng county pitches are mostly seamers' paradise. if you look at darren stevens' stats (sub-120 kph super-trundler) over the last 4-5 yr, everything will become apparent. the way you become successful in counties is: (a) swing the ball, and (b) trundle at <130 to bowl longer spells and more overs to get more wkts. as a result, this is why eng repeatedly flatters to deceive in Oz

Not to forget he is 48 years old or something

 

England pitches are made for sub 120 trundles like it was back in the day when you had likes of Mark Ealham, hollioake, Ronnie Irani etc trundle with wicketkeeper up to stumps

Should be quicker than our spearhead bhuvi who bowls around 121kph in shortest format of the game. Anderson at 40 can bowl 140kph and this guy is unfit from last decade or so to play even in helpful conditions with his 120kph thunderbolts.

Aila! The next time our 92 mph bowlers tour UK and get phainty de royale from Buttler and Stokes with ball coming easy on the bat, then Michael Holding and others will say that "Indians are brainless and only throw the ball, they need to learn how to be skillful".

 

Matlab, pehle bhi beizzati when we had trundlers, aur aaj bhi when have phaasst bowlers :((

Sir Boobie orchestrated SA's win by bowling delicious unharming 4 overs

real reason is that trundlers get rewarded in english county conditions

that is exactly the case. also what I wrote in the thread earlier. this data is very helpful though. Only Ollie is genuine fast-medium, the rest are barely fast-medium or are outright medium like stevens, the one with the 2nd best avg
