Did Marshall ever bowl medium pace?
I was just listening to the cricket commentary and they were saying when Marshall burst on the scene he was really medium pace, then express at about 150k then merely fast at about 140k. I remember the 150k then towards the end about 140k, but medium pace - cant remember that one. He would have done it superbly though.

I watched virtually his whole career,and even in county games he was fast fast,the pace generated by his quick arm action in delivery - so I don't see how he could ever have bowled medium pace,even if he had wanted to,with that arm action.He had a slower keg cutter he developed later in his career,but used that as a surprise ball rather than a stock one.The fact that Hampshire signed him as a like for like replacement for Andy Roberts in 1979 shows again how fast he was even early in his career.
