Is Varun Aaron the fastest bowler in the sub-continent?

[joly]

AAron is avg 6 kph faster than Anyone else in SC,however he is garbage, Aaron is ages ahead in speed though,this topic is like is sachin th best Odi bat in SC lol

 

[octavian]

Thanks for the thumbs up! Your tried to be funny, but somehow u fail to do so. Why dont you try a little harder?

Excellent rebuttal. Brilliant!

 

[Rightarmfast]

You are still trying. Though with little luck. Come back with something better.

 

[AlphaFighter]

Aaron is so over rated, its unbelievable. Is there a single international batsman who has wet himself and said i don't want to face this guy. Wahab has already got the likes of Shane Watson, Michael Clarke, and now England talking about him.

 

[IcedEarth]

This is the pace Wahab operates at in 75% of his matches. Aaron has always maintained a 140kph+ pace even in Tests.

As for you or someone claiming Indian speed guns being faster, Aaron has sustained average bowling pace of 145-147 kph even in matches played outside India.

He was 136-142k at Galle, and fastest was 145k while Prasad bent his back and clocked 144k. He doesn't hit the pitch hard as Yadav or Prasad does. Aaron is overrated as a fast bowler. He is no where as fast as Wahab Riaz or Dushmantha Chameera or Umesh Yadav.

[aslaisnomasla]

Aaron is the fastest bowler currently , wahab is nowhere near this beast.

 

[Romali_rotti]

exactly even if aaron and yadav are faster then wahab wahab has a better brain and better control which was very hard to say about him before

Lol Pakistanis getting all insecure and defensive, no one said Aaron was a better bowler than Wahab, ofcourse Wahab is the better bowler, title of the thread is 'is Varun Aaron the fastest bowler in subcontinent' and Aaron is the fastest bowler from SC right now....

 

[Abidi110]

LO @ some Indians trying to take pride in a so called bowler whose speed is usually measured off the bat!

 

[Itachi]

Aaron is fastest.... I was like.... I couldn't even see the ball.

With wahab, i can see the ball abd also have ample of time to predict to which direction it'll swing.

If wahab was fastest from asia, then aaron becomes fastest pushing wahab to second spot.

Its about speed. In terms of speed, no one can match aron.... Even Yadav.

Quality is whole different issue.

Aaron is the fastest loose cannon around, hope he gets faster and faster, even faster than legendary Sami, but he never finds the direction.Good for us, the batter knows where exactly to dispatch the ball.

In ODIs, he has has been, averaging 145+ in all ODIs he has played. In Tests, who is express? Even Wahab and Umesh struggle to maintain a 140+ average pace (something Aaron has done almost effortlessly).

But even there, Aaron maintains 142-143 kph average speeds. Infact, in Australia Tests, he was way quicker than both MJ and Starc.

People love to mention that one Sri Lanka Test, but it was the match where he was coming back from an injury and yet matched Chameera.

 

[Zak_Fan]

That was the series he came back from an injury. Why don't you judge a bowler based on 90% of the matches rather than picking one single example?

ODI bowling average pace of 145+, Test match average pace of 142-144 throughout his career... not one bowler in Asia comes close to this.

Then you must do this for Wahab, Aarun and you will find out where Aarun stands.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Leave consistency but if you see only pace then YES, even on this slow pitch he's bowling at 87-89 MPH with bouncers.

 

[Zak_Fan]

I did this. Wahab was slow in Bangladesh and various bilateral tournaments. In UAE tests, he was outpaced by both MJ and Starc in a big way. But months after, Aaron was clocking quicker than MJ and Starc quite consistently.

Thing is, Wahab doesn't use his express pace all the time, while Aaron is always express, no matter who the opposition or where he is playing.

The way they defend Aaron, it's more the Indians who are getting insecure probably because even a tiny country like Sri Lanka gives them competition in the pace dpt, look at [MENTION=135666]joly[/MENTION] saying that he's "avg 6 kph faster" than "anyone else in the SC", incl. Wahab Riaz, which is absolutely ridiculous to say the least.

And forget Wahab Sami too is faster than him :

Yeah, 1 ball proves so much Btw, did you do the voice over on the video? Not even sure which year was this recorded.

And I am pretty sure u were shagging while doing the voice over

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Aaron is a poor bowler but in terms of pace he and Yadav are right up there. They can maintain good speeds throughout. Wahab is a better bowler and certainly has a higher ceiling but his average pace is not that high.

Different speed guns. I only judge players when they play together using the same speed guns. Pakistani bowlers were much quicker than Aaron and Yadav in the SL tour, and even Shannon Gabriel hit 150k.

 

[IcedEarth]

India's quickest bowler was Srinath and Sri Lanka's it was Malinga. For a period of about one year, Malinga was quicker than anything subcontinent produced which is not named Akthar / Waqar / Sami. Srinath was ridiculously quick for about four seasons 95 - 99, and was the quickest from SC at that time. Zahid and Mo. Akram were as quick as if not quicker than Akthar, but their heroics were short lived. Outside of Pakistan, Malinga is the SC's quickest ever bowler. Neither Aaron, no Yadav can come close to him bowling spells to average 145k+.

 

[Zak_Fan]

I think I explained Aaron's lower speeds in Lanka quite well above, he came out of an injury. Few points you should consider.

• Wahab was bowling medium pace in Bangladesh like he does in most bilateral series, Aaron was express there (like he always is).
• Wahab was outpaced quite easily by MJ and Starc in UAE. A few months later, the same MJ and Starc were outpaced by Aaron.
• Even though Wahab hit 154 in the WC, his average pace throughout the tournament was slower or equal to Yadav. This Yadav is nowhere near Aaron when it comes to raw pace.

Why is it hard to accept that Wahab only bowls express once in a while and only when needed? He bowls Yadav's pace or slower most of the times, but can join Aaron and Milne whenever he desires. If anything, it is a smarter way to go about bowling, and I don't see why Pakistani fans feel offended when someone says that.

 

[theariezman]

Cricinfo says that Aaron's fastest ball today was 146.1kph in the first test of series and Umesh's fastest ball was 147.7 kph with average speed of one being 140kph and other being 143kph but note they have just bowled 3 overs only.

After first test when you will compare fastest balls of Wahab , Aaron and Umesh as well as the average speeds in first and second innings with India vs SA first test and Pak vs Eng first test than you will find out Wahan to be more quick both on average pace and fastest ball.

and why would you want him to do that why not supporting wahab and continue building the momentum.

37 overs of 140k+ in one innings under the UAE heat, 1st test

Followed by the 9 over 90 mph spell in the 2nd test.

Sustained 140k+ throughout three tests bowling 100+ overs.

Lol at 'can't sustain pace.' Aaron and Yadav would need 10 lives to manage something like this.

Wahab has more speed range, consistency and is far better bowler than any indian. He has reached speeds of 154-155 kph in WC, I believe in future we may see some 155+ quickees from him if he plays in those conditions again. Dont fall for curry-ego propaganda, In past irfan pathan was compared with wasim akram as well LOL ...

I haven't even the mentioned the ODI pace were where Aaron wipes floor with Wahab. Half the matches Wahab trundles at 138 kph while Aaron is 145+ kph consistent.. ALWAYS.

Bowlers like MJ and Starc visited, made Wahab look like a trundler. Same MJ and Starc paled in front of Aaron.. that should give you some idea of how much quicker he is !

I just checked Wahab's pace in most of his ODIs and Test matches. Don't want to post them as it could get real embarrassing for some of these really proud posters.

But I agree, every now and then (once in 10 matches), he does produce a spell where he matches Aaron.

87.8 to 87.6. One spell bowled under the UAE heat, the other in Australia.

No, Wahab's pace varies. He can go from 140k to 150k quite easily if he wants. Usually averages around 140k and bowls spells of 145k+ inbetween innings.

Neither of Aaron or Yadav can bowl heavy balls like Wahab. They don't have the leverage nor the shoulder strength or the slingy action to gain that steep bounce.

I don't know about heavy balls, but Aaron's pace most Tests has been 88-90mph. When he bowls near 100 deliveries, he is still around 88mph. In ODIs, he averages 145kph.

The consistency in his pace makes him the fastest in Asia for me. If Wahab did this every match, I would call him as fast or faster.. but I know what pace he bowls half the matches, so I didn't make that call.

At 33-34, the decline in pace can happen very quickly. Even in the UAE, Johnson wasn't bowling the same pace he did in Aus and SA. He had slowed down slightly and was injured after 2 tests.

True, and that goes against him. But I think it is easy to see when a bowler is express. he bowls the same pace in domestic matches, IPL, T20s, ODIs, Tests.

If you believe Wahab is faster, alright. But I would disagree.

 

[AlphaFighter]

Aaron is not at Shoaib's and Lee's level when it comes to consistent high 140's and 150's. Show me Video evidence to prove otherwise.

No, I don't think there's much between the two. I gave the edge to Wahab because he's played longer and hurries the batsmen more which is what matters in the end. The speed gun only measures the velocity out of the hand but it cannot differentiate between a bouncer or a full pitched delivery. A short pitched delivery leaves the hand later than a full pitched delivery thus shows up as slower on the speed gun. In comparison, Wahab bowls a lot more shorter deliveries.

 

[msb314]

Wahab at the moment can maintain a better average speed than everyone else because of his fitness and strength. Milne is quite fragile at the moment, but if used in short bursts, IMO he will come out as the quickest. He certainly has the most potential in terms of speed of all bowlers bowling today.

If he develops physically with a bit of strength training, he can get very close to Akhtar/Lee level in terms of raw pace.

How does delivering late can manipulate the speed gun?

If time is calculated after the release, then it doesn't matter it is released sooner or later.

This. Riaz can alter his speed depending on what is needed. He also utilizes the slower-delivery often so the geniuses looking at his average speeds in every match need to take this into account.

Aaron is faster for sure but what's the use if you can't get wickets.

Wahab on average is definitely faster with the effort ball also faster than Aaron's. Although the gap isn't that great.

Overall as a package though, Wahab is leaps and bounds ahead.

Have not seen much of him, but seems from the data that Aaron appears to be quicker, specially in ODI's. Wahab sustaining pace for 30+ overs is a monster feat, and one Aaron has not had the chance to match yet, but stats on this thread seem to suggest Aaron is quicker. Difficult to say as a Pak fan!

Whether he is a better bowler, of course, is another issue... and a more important one, of course.. e.g. McGrath over Lee any day.
