ya it is not easy to gain pace. infact can u come up with an example that a bowler has increased pace significantly in international cricket? on the contrary you will find reverse is true, bowlers tend to lose pace once they grow older. though pacers can increase their speed slightly by change in runup, action or point of delivery, being an incredible hulk from gym lessons wont increase pace much i think.
i rank russel above taposh anyday. if sharif can actually do that reverse swing he will be valuable. but i cant find the logic of putting taposh in. everytime he runs in u feel he will give boundary away, too erratic.
