Re: different types for bowlers

one can bowl fast and other can swing or move the ball in the air and off the pitch. both can be equally good if maintain good line n length.

You can be both, someone like Glenn McGrath is a perfect example of a seam bowler, and someone like a Brett Lee is a perfect example of a pace bowler.

Another example would be Shoaib Akhtar; he would be classified as a pace bowler where as M. Asif is a natural "seam" bowler.
