 Fastest deliveries In Cricket
Brett Lee and Shoaib Akhtar

We all know how important pace is in cricket. Fast bowlers with sheer pace are deadly, sometimes they can be expensive but when it comes to test cricket or ODIs they become dangerous. Every team tries to play with at least one bowler who bowls fast or clocks a speed of at least 140 to 145 kmph. In this article, we will see who bowled the fastest deliveries in both men’s and women’s cricket and we will also tell you some jaw-dropping coincidences between both deliveries.

In men’s cricket, we all know there was a time when Brett Lee and Shoaib Akhtar both were giving each other a very tough competition to bowl the fastest ball. You will find Brett Lee in the top 5 or the top 3 when it comes to the fastest delivery in men’s cricket but it was Shoaib Akhtar of Pakistan who has a record for the fastest delivery in men’s cricket. Shoaib bowled 161.3 kmph delivery which is still the fastest in men’s cricket.
