Well people are doing well to clear the things up. But forget about fractions, because they do not really matter. All speed guns are different, and there is always a chance of a fractional deviation.

One thing that really matters is that both Shoaib & Lee can bowl almost 160 Km/h, which is really a termendous pace, and they really add passion to this game of cricket.

This is why:

"A delivery by Brett Lee from Australia was timed at 161.8kph against the West Indies at Brisbane on November 23, 2000. However this has been put down to an erroneous recording due to external interference of the radar's signal. Two back-up radars recorded the correct speed of 142kph for the delivery."

Lets clear things up.

The Sami delivery is irrelevant, as is the 161.8 kph ball by Lee (both due to tech problems.)

"A delivery by Brett Lee from Australia was timed at 161.8kph against the West Indies at Brisbane on November 23, 2000. However this has been put down to an erroneous recording due to external interference of the radar's signal. Two back-up radars recorded the correct speed of 142kph for the delivery." Cricinfo

The fastest ball ever is by Shoaib at 161.3 (100.2 mph) and the second fastest is by Brett Lee at 160.7 (99.8 mph- v. close)

Its all rubbish really as different machines give different readings, there is variable accuracy and most importantly the speed is just for the fastest a ball has travelled through the air. Certain bowlers loose less speed on bouncing/pitching the ball and can therefore make the ball reach the batsman quicker than a bowler with a higher speed reading.

According to the 2006 Guinness World Record Book, it's Shoaib's delivery, which was delivered at 100.24 mph. According to some of the Australian folks on this forum, it was Lee's delivery, which was delivered at 161.8 kph (faster than Shoaib's), and according to a video I watched, it was Sami's delivery which was delivered at 164 kph (faster than both Shoaib's and Lee's).]]> Sun, 01 Jan 2006 22:28:04 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=561&PID=12075#12075 Brett Lee’s Fastest Ball : So what was the fastest delivery???... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=561&PID=12057#12057 Author: Big Josh

No problem.

Ok, everyone else.

I have 2 links for you guys. I will not make them 'clickable' because then they don't work.

http://www.zippyvideos.com/6463752561340176/sami/

Copy/Paste this link into the Address bar. This will show you the video, but it's sort of poor quality.

The next link is here:

http://rapidshare.de/files/3440629/101.9mph.wmv.html

Copy/Paste this link into the address bar. When you are at this page, scroll down, and in the bottom right hand corner, it says 'Free,' click 'Free'. Now, on the new page scroll down, and it will say 'Wait 18 seconds' and just wait. Eventually, the wait will be over in a few seconds. Then there will be a letter/number combination exactly where it previously said 'wait 18 seconds.' Beside the letter/number combination, there will be an empty box, in the empty box, you type in the letter number combination, and click 'start download'.]]> Thu, 29 Dec 2005 18:59:57 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=561&PID=11608#11608 Brett Lee’s Fastest Ball : Thanks Saad, that works. http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=561&PID=11607#11607 Author: soccer

Why in the world would u believe he didnt when u did NOT see it, u r bias towards paki bowlers and this is wrong. Lee bowled that ball, i saw it and i have a dvd which proves it. U r foolosh to deny something u did not see and the fact u havent watched cricket sicne u were a young lad.
