In that match, he recorded an average speed of 149 kmph.

The Durham pacer is not a part of the current England squad; which is under action in the two-match Test series against New Zealand in New Zealand. Notably, the three lions are leading the series by a margin of 1-0 with a win in the first Test at Mount Maunganui; now, they require 210 runs to win while chasing a target of 258 runs in the ongoing second Test of the series with the fifth day remaining to be played.
