West Indies having played about 20 years more than Pakistan has couple of dozens who are <30. Then they never had the luxury of spin stocks of Pakistan.

He was a slow medium part timer. Unlike some on that nonsense list he did I suppose at least play a fair amount of matches.

He was a batsman and part time medium pacer. Putting him in a list of fast bowlers is comical. Continue to justify it is even more comical.

But the list makes the point without having Asif in. You can remove him.

I think @honestbharani said it best that the general supply seems good and the fast bowlers pass the eye test but they don't progress onwards for some reason.

Yeah, Asif Iqbal was definitely not anywhere near pace. More like military medium probably
Note that Kyle Mayers also makes the list for WI. Very much the West Indian Asif Iqbal. Mayers will be thrilled however ifhe could end up with Iqbal's batting average.

None of them achieved greatness. Voting for personal favourite which is always Saqlain Mushtaq

This is when iqbal opened bowling. Average of about 23, 41 wickets in 16 games. That is bloody impressive bowling. Not sure why he gave it up.
