5'10" to 6'0" is medium height for pacers. 6'1" with non-high arm actions too.

 

Tall for pacers is 6'2" to 6'5" and 6'1" with high arm action.

 

6'6" + is very tall.

 

5'8" to 5'9" is short for a pacer.

 

5'7" or less .. go become anything but a pacer.

even 5.9 is not good for fast bowler unless they are bowling 140+ kmph consistency.

Problem is they do not get bounce and if ball in not zipping around it becomes easy to  middle and drive the ball.

Enaan looks like another non-spinning leg-spinner from Ind U-19 system.

Seems similar to Chawala, Bishnoi etc ...

Enaan bowled well against Aussies..I know they are not typically good spin players but the kind of bowls Enaan served to Pak he would be carted by any batter ar that level..

So I will just give him a pass..after all these are all young players..and Indo Pak match first time and pressure of expectations is tough to handle..

Hopefully he turns up well next time

Must be 5'11'. Doesnt look 6 to me. 

 

Samarth looks quick to me. And no, doesn't look medium height, has long legs for sure. And for U19, 6'0' should be ample tall. 

This is medium height for fast bowlers. To be called, a bowler has to be 6'2 or more.

Keeper was not standing that back to him so may be 130-135  kmph would b the guess. A keeper will not stand this close for a 140+kmph bowler plus an U19 keeper....

Samarth has already been clocked 140+ in Karnataka premier league. Dubai has slow and low bouncy pitches so wk won't stand too far back.

Firstly, it is difficult to read how close the wicketkeeper is to the wicket, in a video. Secondly, an U19 bowler bowling 135'sh is pretty sharp. So, yes Samarth is pretty fast!

Samarth is already 19. He isn't going to grow any taller. It's his final height so whether he plays u19 or Ranji or international, his height will remain the same. 

In that case, he will not grow. And his height is still at the cusp of being good. However, the point remains that a genuine U19 player who is 6 ft tall, and bowls 135+ is good for his age. 

However, I am at a loss to understand how could a player who has already crossed 19. playing in U19?

I am not saying his height is bad. 

 

Regarding playing u19. Cut off date to play u19 cricket is September 1 before turning 20. His birth date is October 21, so, he is eligible to play. In fact, he should have played u19 wc that was played in January earlier this year. He looks better than every fast bowler we picked for that world cup.

You certainly have my support there.
