Tino might not have had the best of the tournament so far as he hasn’t been able to deliver up to the mark. He possesses genuine pace and would be quite eager to trouble the batters with his raw pace and bounce. Despite being a retired bowler, he appears as if he is still active in cricket due to the speed he generates, bowling close to 140.
