Websters Dictionary defines Trundler --> Predominantly a bowler of Indian origin who has a 'very good' first class record and is capable of producing thunderbolts that would beat the best batsmen across the globe for their lack of pace and lack of bounce. Note: Almost all trundlers have a bustling approach to the crease for easier identification.

You should get extra marks if the media and public are duped into thinking you are an express phast bowler. The thinking trundler. Case study:

The son of a fitness instructor, he used to train regularly in his father's gym in his teens which has given him the sinewy build and strength so useful for a fast bowler. Another of his strong points is the ability to send down the odd cracking delivery which surprises the batsmen even when he is not at his best. For example, in the Ranji final on a bowler-friendly track in Mysore, he was guilty of wasting the new ball by not making the Mumbai batsmen play enough, and was taken off after a four-over burst. Omkar Khanvilkar and Abhishek Nayar weren't troubled much early in Mithun's second spell either, but he snapped their resistance by bowling both with full, quick deliveries. Even after a barnstorming season, eyebrows are bound to be raised when someone reaches the Indian team barely ten weeks after his first-class debut. Karnataka coach Sanath Kumar is not one of those surprised by the call-up. "From day one we knew he had the potential," he told Cricinfo. "He has the pace, bowling around 140kmh, and he has performed in every game, whether it is junior cricket or first-class cricket."

A trundler to me is someone who struggles to maintain 80mph and rarely bowls 83MPH+ RKT is one.
So Kerala express is really a trundler? 2nd Test - Nottingham http://www.espncricinfo.com/england-v-india-2011/engine/match/474473.html?bowler=12020;innings=1;view=commentary Out of his 19 overs, he probably bowled about 5 balls in excess of 83 MPH. Every other time he was trundling around 79 MPH. Same thing in the 2nd innings. Bowled one ball at 89, some others at 87 MPH and about 5 more in excess of 83 MPH. The rest, he was trundling at 80 MPH. 3rd Test - Birmingham Bowled 36 overs ( I'm surprised he lasted that long) Bowled about 6 balls in excess of 83 mph ( at 87) The rest he was trundling at 77 MPH. http://www.espncricinfo.com/england-v-india-2011/engine/match/474474.html?bowler=12020;innings=2;view=commentary 4th Test - Kerala Express was really cranking it up B-> at 86 MPH http://www.espncricinfo.com/england-v-india-2011/engine/match/474475.html?bowler=12020;innings=1;view=commentary

Bewakuf he was injured in england tour but continued playing. Have you lost your mind? Everyone noticed this, I noticed at nets in england, Gavasker commented on this himself. Maybe you need to learn about cricket first. If you want to see his express speed watch world cup final again, he was bowling 140-145+. He is our quickest bowler with Yadav. He just bowls a little slower as he wants to concentrate on swing and seam. Even Steyn doesn't go all out in test cricket. In one spell in england, he was bowling 140k+ despite crippling injury, he took on kp, lots of stares and aggression with pace to back up. KP got angry and became agitated even in the way he was batting. The speedster got under his skin, I saw it at the bar.
