Unfortunately, there aren’t any common 7-letter words that directly describe a fast bowler in cricket.
However, there are some options depending on the specific context of the clue:
- SEAMER (6 letters): This is the most common term for a fast bowler who uses the seam of the cricket ball to make it deviate after bouncing. While it’s one letter short, it might be accepted in a crossword puzzle depending on the leniency.
- PACER (5 letters): This is a less common term for a fast bowler, focusing on their speed. This might also be considered depending on the puzzle.
If you have any additional letters revealed in the puzzle, I might be able to help you narrow it down further.
