yeah don't think BD pacers are up to the mark whether it be speed or quality, especially comparing them to RSA, Eng, Aus. however there are a number of players who can hit 140+ and can consistently bowl 135+, problem is in BD there isn't the quality coaching, competition or self motivation and work ethic for these players to really hone their trade to the quality of international cricket.

they have the tools, but they don't put it all together. don't need to be a 150kph bowler to succeed internationally, 130kph+ and control, accuracy, line and length, movement, seam etc those things are jsut as important as pace at the highest level, as long as they bowl 130+ their pace is fine just need to work on the other things.
