slowest bowler

3rd May 2003, 02:47 AM

Hi, i was just wondering who is the slowest opening bowler, and which team does he play 4??

andrew_nixon · 3rd May 2003, 02:08 PM

Depends. Murali has opened the bowling for Sri Lanka a few times and Giles did the same for England in India recently. I think Vetorri has opened for New Zealand too.

yeah but how about fast bowlers and the usual opening bowler??

ARAVINDA DE SILVA :P

I don't think this question can be answered really. Even Brett Lee sometimes bowls slower balls under 70 mph.

okay...y don't we make it the slowest consistent bowler then?

andrew_nixon · 5th May 2003, 09:34 AM

My guess the slowest, regualar, test match opening bowler when bowling at his own speed, would play for Bangladesh.

5th May 2003, 09:37 AM

yeah ur probably right, how bout canada, namibia, and kenya??

I thought we were talking Test Match bowlers. But if we're talking teams in the World Cup its still Bangladesh.

If we're talking any national team, then it's impossible to say. I mean I've never seen Frances opening bowlers.

yeah, i would say that the americans would be proabably bowling as fast as glen mc grath , u reckon??
french.... i never knew they played!! B)

No-ones mentioned doug hondo, he bowls usually 115kmh - 125kmh. I dont know how much the Bangladeshi openers bowl though

3rd August 2004, 12:26 PM
