I don't know about being classed as really fast but in his early years Anderson was definitely quicker. Mainly bowled in the high 80s and occasionally topped 90mph.

The image below is a couple of years old but shows it's his record after turning 30 that's truly exceptional.

Thanks Puck! Perhaps he has a bowling style that places less stress on the body than say Wood for example, that has enabled him.to play at Test level up to now
 
H 22 - 2 Organ 5. This pitch is very bowler friendly.
H 61 - 3 Lunch. Vince just out 36.

H 77 - 5 Batting is nigh on impossible! Prest won't bat apparently, injured.
H 193 - 5 Tea. Dawson 59 no. Barker 50 no.

Prest expected to be out for about six weeks, which would mean him missing the first block of eight Blast matches.

Presumably Albert will deputise, with our team looking something like: McDermott, Vince, Orr, Weatherley, Albert, Dawson, Fuller, Howell, Neser, Wood, Turner.
 
I'd back us to chase this if we had Gubbins and Prest. But as it is, I am concerned we won't.
