Well Rainsford pradominantly bowls 80-83mph, but when he's loose and runs in hard he can bolw 86mph, which he demonstarted against the bangladeshis in 2006.
Aleseni can bolw sharp !! Vermuelan said with the correct coaching this boy can bolw 150kph (93mph). Good signs.
Mpofu doesn't utilsise his height to his full advantage, and so only bowls about 77-78 mph. But when his arm his at 12 o'clock, and he stands tall at the crease, he can bolw 83 mph.
Trevor Garwe is just a medium pacer, but can move the ball both ways though and gains suprising lift from a good leangth. When i whatched him bowl a couple of yeras back against pakistan A, i reckon he notched up to 82mph.
Other fast bowlees to look out for:
Callum Price (82-84mph) Still only just 18.
Keegan Meth.(again 81-83mph)
Shingri Mazakadza(Never seen the chap bowl, but have heard he bowls about 82mph)
