Otherwise, Gavaskar's son should have become naturally another Gavaskar and Imrans son another Imran...when you give so much to natural gift, that has to be more genetic as well....

Dead pitches encouraged them to master the art of generating more pace, control, accuracy, movement through air etc....pitch comes into effect only after the ball pitches.

Pakistani fast bowlers eat a lot and Bangladeshi's don't. The difference between the 2 sets of fast bowling countries is the knowledge on how the body works and what you can do to benefit yourself if you're a fast bowler. The only fast bowlers of Bangladesh that have worked on their bodies are Mashrafe and Nazmul who are clearly two of our best fast bowlers at the moment so no surprises. The others like Rubel and Shafiul are too fragile and skinny and despite having played for over 2 years of International Cricket, we have yet to see them improving their physique.
