Medium pacers in international cricket

Mark Butcher and Graham Gooch were the quintessential 'international' medium pacers. Both could get decent shape on the ball in the right conditions, but were probably no faster than 120km/h

Copeland for sure as previously mentioned. The S=series in Sri Lanka I barely remember him bowling over 125ks - he was mainly hovering between 115-120.

Sri Lanka had a guy bowling in the recent Zimbabwe test series who was bowling seam up and he was slower than most of the spinners on show. Even Bavuma was bowling 125kph+ at Perth but this guy was struggling to hit 100kph.
