Another possible inclusion would be Hasibul Hossain Shanto. When everyone was labeling Mashrafe as the quickest BD bowler ever after his debut, the then senior cricketers were saying young Shanto was as fast as Mashrafe. And watching Shanto on tv I believed so as well.

How fast was GM Prince? I remember Intekhab Alam praised his pace when Pakistan toured bd back in 92-93.

Prince and Shanto were nowhere near 90mph. Any attempt at 85+ and ball would end up in the boundary (no control). Prince was faster than Shanto and Shanto was little faster than Chacha.

Prince is listed as left arm medium on cricinfo. Shanto was tall if I recall and probably around 80-82 mph (just guessing).

Was averaging 138k throughout his spell which has improved from NZ series. Who is going to work on him so that he gets wickets.
Averages 80 with the ball now.

Gibson. He will need to work with Ebadat. But yes, Ebadat's fitness seems to have improved in NZ he bowled 140 in the first over and by the 5th over was averaging 132. Now he's up around 137 average even in his 10th over. So at least he's been working out. Needs to focus on his line and length.

At least it didn't take us 80 years to unearth a fast medium bowler or win a Test away from home.

Four words every few months and that's enough for you to start with your coping mechanisms. I can see why the likes of Sehwag gets a kick out of this.
In the meantime, your beloved stuffed tigers have no doubt shed another 15 losses across formats, to teams ranging from South Africa to Afghanistan and everyone in between.

When did Shafiul ever bowl 90 mph?
I think Ebadat is the only bowler in the country at the moment who can consistently bowl high 130s and exceed 140. Rubel and Taskin have lost considerable pace. And Fizz who used to be able to get it close to 90 mph with his effort ball has lost everything - pace, accuracy, guile.

England 2010. I remember seeing it on hawkeye. English, Aussie, and NZ speed guns usually record higher speeds because they calculate the speed slightly differently.

Well that didn't age well. Maybe he should have waited until _after_ the U19 final?
