    Ponty had a few good quick bowlers as I recall.
    Depends how far back you are going. I’m guessing that it’s 1970s and or 1980s. My great butty Tony Hallett got it through at a fair old lick. In the 80s his partner in crime was John Kimber who for an educated man was a headcase when bowling. In fact it was against WH that he called me to stand up to Carl Thomas? as he thought we could do him down the leg side, and then bowled three successive quick bouncers which resulted in 12 byes!!!! I was one not very happy wicket keeper!

    If you are going back a bit further though which is before my time we had a genuine quickie Peter Clarkson, while John Bunyan wasn’t exactly a dibble dobbler either.
