India’s current and upcoming fast bowlers

[Plumb]

With the recent performances of india’s fast bowlers, I for once am really impressed. Is it how they are being trained? Or the coaching is good or they are genuinely good? Or its just that they happen to do well?

In addition the current u19 fast bowlers India produced they happen to find the good fast bowlers or they being coached to have those 150+ speeds?

I believe that fast bowlers are born and not coached to bowl fast. May be they increase their speed over the time but one has to be fast from the get go to become fast bowler true or false? Experts your opinions?

Couple of generations of Cricket aspirants in India saw Fast Bowling as a good career choice as the cupboard was bare when they started off...The results are showing now

We have atleast around 10-15 bowlers who are bowling around 145 in domestic circuit.

Unfortunately in Pakistan social media, video games and indoor games along with chatting etc somehow took over the post 1990 generation.
Instead of going to the park and playing cricket, post 1990 generation spent more time somewhere else. That is one reason people like Shoaib Akhtar, muhammad zahid, waqar etc were born in pre-social media era. They had no other activity so they just played aggressive cricket.
Social media addiction has caught Pakistan far more than other nations.

I think inability to play cricket at home properly from 2002 onwards has been the real reason. I can recall New Zealand abandoned tour of Pakistan in 2002, the youth born in 1990 never got chance to go to stadiums and see REAL fast bowlers (that was the prime of Akhtar. Waqar Wasim were still around.
Cricket did happen in Pakistan until 2009.... but the seeds were bowed in 2002.
All these people Muhammad zahid, Akhtar etc used to go to stadiums to see Imran and Nawaz in 1980's. We are still lucky to be honest that Pakistan is not going west indian way.

IPL has a big part to play. Nowadays, being an 'Indian' fast bowler can fetch you big bucks at the IPL and if auction year coincided with an U19 WC or some junior tournament, then it would mean huge pay day.

For e.g. KM Asif, who recently made his debut for Kerala in Syed Musthtaq Ali T20 tournament clocked 145 and caught eyeballs. He is now picked by CSK.
