Watching the big bash, and this 22 year old right arm quick is bowling some pacy Yorkers and bouncers. Regularly clocking in the high 140’s and got Bancroft with an absolute beauty. Ending with figures of 3/15.

Have a feeling we might hear a lot more of this guy in the future.

Thanks for the videos brother. Yes, other countries seem to be coming up with a lot of pace talent.

He will be playing for Australia soon. At 22 he seems ready.


Watch out for Aaron Summers. He isn’t as accurate but He will bowl few over 150 kph.

That’s true brother, Aaron Summers played one game for the same team last year. I remmeber he was clocking 149kph average with highest upto 151kph. But he was all over the place. Very wayward and raw bowler. His also been picked for a PSL team.
 
2 wickets so far vs Pakistan for Australia A

Shan Masood got a nasty one from him

Yeah, that was a sharp bouncer. Masood couldn't hook or pull as there are men in the deep and it was too steep to duck under, had to fend at it in the end.
 
Just saw him bowling one at 153 kph in big bash !

I wish we can replicate the Australian system of fast bowlers development in our country. Most of their bowlers have perfect runups with smooth actions.
 
He seems very good.He bowled a Yorker at 152ks and a bouncer at 153.5ks.He should be in Australia's LOIs squad much much better than the trundlers like abbott tye Richardson and others

Trundlers these days are way more economical. It’s why I hate this batting friendly era. Speed demons are too likely to get hit and a 140-145kph bowler with the same skillset will be twice as successful.

That means faster bowlers have to be way more skillful than their slower counterparts, just to achieve similar degrees of success.

Australia is a great sporting nation.They produce excellent rugby players,tennis players,crickters ,swimmers and atheletes.They will always produce good fast bowlers.This due to good coaches
at every level.South Africa also produce good fast bowlers but recently the quota system is
damaging South African cricket.

The core is the key to sustained fast bowling.

He is a trash bowler lmao. Brianless player with just pace means jack.

Sure pace is important. Yea If you actually have the skills to back it up.

He would have been a star in the Pakistan team. Most other teams will find him to be a one trick pony.

Lol Indian Pacers are better than yours though. India actually has quality in reserves too. What do you have?

Meredith is utter fodder. That's all I need to say. He is good enough to run through Pakistan fodders though.
