between 68-74 mph as a very rough guess - nice action as well.

not really - alot of county medium-fast bowlers bowl around 77-82mph so i wouldnt say that makes you very slow - it's all about practice,practice,practice!!!

by the way that is my guess - he may bowl 60mph or he may be 80mph (unlikely though :D)

Allan Donald Rishton pro not nice when your 15 jason gillespie when your 17 and i tell you what possible on his day when he bowled seam up Micheal Bevan could get the ball through at a fair rate but in my opinion the quickest bowl i have ever faced and people will slate me was Phil Simmons he just came off a short run it wizzed past me all i herd was the seam.

most horrible bowler ever a bloke called Chris Killan South Aust was as quick as anything and pissed to and Jo Angle used to be about 7ft tall and around 85mph mark not easy at all

lancashire league days in the 90's

quickest bowler i have seen was a pumped up Hartley Alleyne he was real nasty good job i was only watching that i think i was in the stiffs but i remember him running in from the sitescreen hurting people

Who did you play for in Lancashire Dave. That is meant to be the best league in the country with top pros playing in it.

Played against plenty of quicks. A West Indian named Andy Iffel, last bowler to take 100 wickets in a season in the old Somerset League.

More recently played against Taunton St Andrews and they had Mark Turner who was slippery !! 90mph

so far my clubs in lancashire have been

colne
horwich rmi
earby


it was a good standard but after playing down your way and in Middlesex i have noticed a diffrence in the wickets down south the best league i think in England is probably the Liverpool Comp but i sure many on here will have much to say about that.
