I have not seen a lot of him, a handful of FC matches, but he gives me Jermaine Lawson vibes.
We have ton of pace options available, and a good sign is that there are young batsmen stepping up…
We are slowly getting there.
The academy team had some seriously good young players: Kirk, Bishop, Anderson, Nedd, Imlach

McCallister maybe in the 142-145 range but he needs to work on his line more I’d imagine

I think he might even have spells close to 150kph tbh. Hard to tell of course but he's seriously quick.

Really liking this sylhet pitch. Full of grass and Akeem Jordan making the ball talk. There is Afghanistan test looming for BD and the top order lots to play for

I personally think the WI bowlers look quite pedestrian.

Maybe the camera angle because its way too far than what we are used to

Well I know Phillips is pedestrian from when he played in the 2nd test in Australia last year, Jordan looks slower if anything, and though he's obviously quicker McCallister does not look as fast as the comments above would indicate.

Who's going to take wickets on the Australia tour now?

No one.

Apparently, judging from last time.
I'd like to think WI's bowling can do better this time, but I'm not optimistic they actually will.

I hope Tanzim eventually goes somewhere. Classical action, with a little bit of resemblance to Andy Roberts. Very rare these days.

First seen him in u19 against india. He did not increase his pace by much as it seems. The kind of bowler he is , needs to work on his pace or he will be carted around

Tbf Anderson Phillip was bowling with an injury in Australia. He has previously been a 135 -145kph range bowler. Though since the injury he has looked very pedestrian.
Jordan is around 80-83mph, he is skillful not quick.
McAllister has spells where he does look slightly slower when his rythm is off. He did look slightly less menacing in this match compared to the first one. I hope that is not fitness related.
Tbh that Australia tour was mad for the number of bowling injuries we suffered. Whilst I don't expect us to be too threatening, surely we can't be that unlucky two tours in a row?

I've seen it with my own eyes both in CPL and on his test debut against Bangladesh when there were speed guns. In his breakout FC season there was no speedgun on the live stream but he certainly looked quicker than he is now.
