by It seems that Kerala has few young Fast Medium bowlers coming up. I just read
an article from rediff where Harsha Bhogle talked about 3 young fast bowlers
chosen for National Cricket Academy.
I did my own research and found out there are 2 bowlers playing for Kerala
Under 19 and 2 others playing for Kerala Under 22 rated as "fast medium". I was
even more supirsed when i found out that those who are chosen for NCA are not
in this list.
Anish Choorakkattu Antony

Out of 27 Under 19 teams (including bombay and delhi), these are the ONLY 2
guys rated as "fast medium". Its pretty good that 2 bowlers rated as "fast
Medium" is playing for a under 19 state team considering the fact that the
Indian National Team itself plays with slower pace attack most of the time.
I think kerala has a lot of potential in producing quicker bowlers because of
the diet they have which is much more protein based compared to rest of India.
These are the other 2 guys playing for under 22.
