even if Ishant sharma would have been hitting just about 130, i say whatz this addiction of calling a bowler a trundler just because he can't hit a bloody 150 or a 145? basically if a bowler doesn't hit a decent 140kz then he is a trundler?? crap

mcgrath wasnt hitting even 140 mark but he was the greatest in the world...so i agree with u cricks...
However, Mcgrath bowled exclusively over the 130kph mark in the first 10 years of his career, which a lot of opening bowlers in India fail to do. There is certainly a limit to how slow a strike bowler can be. From watching the Duleep Trophy, I saw about half a dozen balls just over 130kph, and that was by VRV Singh.

Clark and Asif have a lot of things in common 1> Height 2> Accuracy 3> Variation to keep batsmen guessing Does experience at Aussie Domestic level have anything to do with Clarks success, i dont think so.. going by that yard stick all 30 year old bowlers in Aus should be world class trudlers..

I had a long discussion with my cousin about this. If you have experience at a high level' date=' which Clark does at Australian domestic level, then it is fine to bowl at 125kph. Similarly, if you can move the ball like no other in the country (world?), like Asif can, it is also fine to bowl 125kph.[/quote']

Forgot some major difference?

S Clark isnt too far off the 135 mark' date=' but Asif ? I would like to think he is quite quick, unless of course he has lost a lot of pace off late.[/quote'] asif slowed down recently after someone told him cocaine isnt actually allowed by WADA :hatsoff:

Add Unadkat to the list .. really pissed off to see a youngster bowling 125 kmph that too on SA pitches when he was so overhyped with a lot of expectations .. he is not even domestic quality leave apart international .. he is a pure trundler from what I have seen till now.. I expected him to bowl near 140s at least with good swings .. maybe testing Yadav would not have been a very bad ploy and he would have at least bowled 140+

Unadkat needs to change his diet of Karhi and Masala Bhat.. A regular diet of Kolhapuri Chicken and Savji Chicken should give him the necessary "drive" to increase his running speed, if not bowling speed..
