Fast Bowling

Fast Bowling

There can have been few more hostile spells of bowling by a University player than Jim Zohrab's 5.66 against Wellington. On a suitable wicket Zohrab demonstrated that outside New Zealand represenative Bob Blair there is no-one in Wellington to compare with his sheer speed. Zohrab is essentially a shock bowler and too often this year he has been used for long periods in which his speed and hostility have suffered. The other University bowlers have rarely been more than steady although left arm spinner Jim Thomson (5-35) and medium pacer John Martin (4-19) bowled consistently for long periods against Kilbirnie when the Seniors registered their first points snce Christmas.
