ill go for BS

im 15 and bowl regularly at the 67mph mark and topped 70 a few times.
But im inferior to a fellow Kent player who bowls regualry at 125kph or 75mph (or both, i dunno) he has topped 80mph..

143??

*watches pigs fly past again*

Im 15 & I got clocked at 127km at the AIS biomechanics thing.

However I regularly (in a match) I think Id be around 118-123 & Ive never faced anyone quicker my own age , so if Im bowling at 143 within 2 years I'll be damn happy.

i'm medium fast..clocked at 143.2 max

That's like 89mph :O......I can smell the BS from here :P. Even if you were bowling that quick, surely that ain't medium-fast. Your average of 134 is mens pace at 17. Unless you're like T_C (he explained a while ago) then I find it VERY hard to believe.

Nice speed there David, im not even a regular bowler, just aim to keep it accurate if i do get a bowl see this is more believeable cos its seems plausible, the Kent play has gotten upto 84ph btw, thats 133(?)kph.

i AM medium-fast, Deeps, not almost 90mph, and you....if anything you are leftarm off break....


Anyway, moving on, still 1 place left in the CW teams?
wow, so many new recruits.. i best continue working in the nets..

Just add my bowling type:

Bowling type: Right arm medium

I have never been clocked, so I think that is my type of bowling. Well the 'keeper stand up to me.

i'm actualy 18 in december! 143.2 is my max speed...that doesnt mean i consistently bowl it...i can't ! i can only bowl around 133ish consistently... And let's just say i'm not the most accurate bowler...as my economy rate suggests :P

I captained the u/16 WA state team, but then i dislocated my shoulder badly playing footy wif my mates... I've only started to bowl again, a few months back! haha,i certainly hope my name will be up there in a few years time!

i dont play grade cricket atm, i still haven't FULLY recovered from my shoulder injury... I can't bowl much,i can only bowl 2-3 over spells... I'll prolly start next season again... but now my back playing up

i could only bowl 124.4 when i was 15! so u could become faster than me 'iamdavid'! Just go to the gym heaps and work the stomach and back and chest! works wonderS!

i'm medium fast..clocked at 143.2 max,but avg 134.3 at the WAIS 6 months ago

but then i dislocated my shoulder badly playing footy wif my mates... I've only started to bowl again, a few months back!

Hhhmmm , Im not doubting you're story here or anything , but if you only started bowling "a few months back" , then how could you get clocked at 143.2km/h "at the WAIS 6 months ago".

It just dosent seem to fit , by the way there is a guy called Brett Lee & after just checking a couple of minutes ago , he said he could bowl at around 135max when he was 17 , so I just wanted to congratulate you on you're status as the fastest 17 year old of all time.

Also I train with the ACT U17's & none of them get it above about 130 consistently.

Ahh , I beleive this is my 200th post

But work on your lower back strength as well and remodel your action if you have to. To in front of a mirror (slowly) and try extermenting in the nets and see if it works.

I have remodled my action 7 times in the last 18 months with the help of specialist coaches , due mainly to lower back injuries , I started out with the Shoaib Akhtar style action but now I just try & use my height rather than bowl to quick.

 

[deeps]

i just checked the dates, i started bowling agian 7 months ago, the speed gun was 4.5 months ago... when i sed 6,it was just a estimate,not exactly 6 months ago... my shoulder is ok now,it just needs to re-strengthen...so that it can take contionous pressure...so it won't affect my bowling speeds...just how long i can bowl for basicaly...but my speed decreases HEAPS after 2 or 3 overs...like,after 3 overs,i start bowling at 110! coz my shoulder hurts so mucH
