i don kno if this is true. but i was watching a video and it was showing the ball that sami delivered at 101.4 mph. and some people say that its true that he did really deliver it at that pace. on the other hand some people say that the machine read it wrong.

anybody got any idea of what i'm talking about?
anybody kno if this is true?

this ball was delivered in the pakistan india series in march of 2005 i'm not sure if it was the test series or the ODI series.

Ya I have also seen that clip - Nod oubt it was a furiously fast delivery and It seemed faster then the one Shoiab bowled in World Cup 2003 - but it isnt in the records and it didnt make any story so may be there really was some problem with the speedgun. Any how Sami is also pretty fast with the fastest ball of 95.something mph - Ithink 4th highest among the current bowlers 
Wasim Akram - I dont think anyone of his class would be born again - He set new levels that can never be acheived again - he'll remain a legend

I have seen the video and that delivery was quite a slow delivery, it didn't seem like to me that it was delivered at 101.4 mph. And as I already mentioned, I looked in the 2006 (not 2005) Guiness World Record Book and it states that Shoaib Akhtars 100.23 (I think, I'm not sure what the exact number is) was the fastest ball.

I was at the game at Newlands when Shoaib went over 100 mph. It was a quick ball , but what everyone forgets is that it was smashed for 4 by Nick Knight - it travelled a LOT faster after he got involved !!

actually, I watched the highlights and I saw that the batsman hardly stopped it and it ran to the fielder at mid-off (I think... I'm going to watch the video again, but I'm quite sure that it wasn't smashed for 4.

I think there was an incident when shoaibs ball broke the stumps...or maybe it just looked like that to me.

Id imagine that he has broke a stump before like. Imagine him when he was about 14 and you had to face him as a scared little 14 year old.

Maybe he is overall but if this is true then Sami has bowled a faster ball than Brett Lee has. But as you can see many people doubt the reliability of this video.

I don't think Sami bowls faster then Lee. I read some stuff about Lee and it says that he is equal with Shoaib Akhtars pace and if he is then obviously he is a faster bowler than Sami.

Yea, that's what I was saying. He is the second fastest bowler after Shoaib. I read that Lee is equal with Shoaib and has broken the 100mph mark as well. I think that was just made up because Shoaib is the only one who has broken the 100mph mark.

Shoaib Akhtar is the quickest bowler in the world, no doubt about it.

I know that but I was just stating what I read. I also know that Shoaib's fastest bowl was not hit for a four, and that's what I was saying as well. Shoaib is the only bowler who has broken the 100mph mark and he is the fastest bowler in the world.

That's not too of topic, as long as we're still talking about speeds of deliveries. I think Lee's fastest was 161.8 kph or 160.8 kph but I'm sure that Shoaib has delivered the fastest delivery ever.

It was 161.8 kph but I don't think that it is true.

Which year and which month was it bowled in? If it was bowled before September 2005, than it didn't happen. Sami delivered a ball at 101.4 mph (162.24kph) earlier in March 2005, I think. No one believes that was actually bowled at 101.4 mph, and it doesn't say that in the world record book (2006) either. So it probably wasn't bowled at 101.4 mph. If Lee bowled a delivery that was faster than Shoaibs fastest delivery, than it would be in the 2006 guiness world record book, and it isn't, which means it wasn't bowled at that pace.

I doubt that is true, but if it is then Shoaib is the third fastest bowler, not 1 or 2.

If Sami had bowled a delivery at 101.4 mph or Lee had delivered one at 161.8 kph, Sami's would be in the 2005 or 2006 guiness world record book and Lee's would be in the 2001-2003 guiness world record books. But neither of those deliveries are in the world record books, and it says Shoaib delivered the fastest delivery, and that is enough proof.

Not exactely, Shoaib delivery was noticed because it was at the World Cup 2003 (in which u didnt see live), ppl were watching the radar very ball, thats is why.

Well, the world record books don't look at whether it was delivered in a world cup match or in a normal International match. If Lee had delivered the delivery it would be in the world record books, but it isn't.
