Answer 5

Fast-medium: bowls fast at the start of thier spell but slows down when the game progresses.

Medium-fast: bowls medium at the start of their spell but gradually builds up speed and bowls faster when the game progresses.

I think thats what it is i could be wrong!

Answer 6

Techinically speaking, the first word in both phrases is supposed to be the bowler's average speed in a match. For instance, a fast-medium is someone who usually bowls in the high eighties, rarely dropping to the seventies, or medium pace, in the entire match. A medium-fast bowler, on the other hand, is someone who usually bowls in the seventies, and dreams, and sometimes accomplishes, putting one in the eighties or seventies.

Answer 7

FAST = 140-160km/h

FAST-MEDIUM = 130-145km/h

MEDIUM-FAST = 120-135km/h

MEDIUM = 110-125km/h
