Sri Lanka's tour of UAE/Pakistan - Speedwatch

Seems that Amir has been bowling good speeds
 
Hasan bowling at almost 90 MPH at times in his first spell here. Good to see he's recovered from his injury.
 
143 KPH from Junaid Khan and 140 KPH from Rumman Raees so far.

Hasan Ali bowled one at 145 KPH in the last match.
 
There's no point measuring speed in UAE. Pitches are so dead, bowlers have to exert extra energy to generate bounce resulting in losing airspeed.

The speedguns seem bootleg as well. They don't work half the time.
 
Impressive speeds from all the pacers today. Even Shadab getting up to 115 ;)
 
Wow Shadab hit 115 thought Afridi was the only spinner who could bowl that fast. :afridi

Still no spinner is ever gonna reach 134 KPH.
 
Usman Khan throwing some humble pie in the faces of those keyboard experts who labelled him a "trundler". Clearly the fastest bowler in the match.
 
I think Shadab is going to break the record of Shahid Afridi soon the way he is going.
 
Not really a record but I think Afridi bowled a 134 kph ball which is probably the fastest for a spinner.

Yeah I think he picked up a Kiwi wicket with it iirc

Shady doesn't change his action with his quicker one though

I remember watching that and I thought that must've been an error but when I saw the replay I realized whoa that ball was quick.
 
remember the days when 143-145 were considered normal pace deliveries and bowlers with 148+ were considered fast bowlers

135-140 were considered medium pace

There was never such a period. Apart from Lee , Akhtar and Bond and later Tait , no bowler was a consistent 145kph.
