When Stuart Meaker was called up for England's Test series in India in 2012, having made his ODI debut a year earlier, he was considered among the most exciting quick-bowling prospects in the land, a skiddy bowler blessed with authentic pace comfortably above 90mph, although suggestions that he was clocked at 96mph may be overcooking it. Injuries then took their toll, leaving him with a challenging task just to keep his county career on track, but always with the knowledge that England's interest had never entirely waned.
