Such records are not officially kept by ICC. But Shoaib akhtar bowled A 100mph ball vs new zealand in 2002. So he may be the fastest. But some people believe that Brett Lee has already bowled a 100mph ball vs West Indies in 2000.

A delivery by Brett Lee from Australia was timed at 161.8kph against the West Indies at Brisbane on November 23, 2000.
That is a touch faster than Shoaib Akhtar who has a 161.3kph on record. Unfortunately, he was bowling at his "dealer" for giving him bad gear so that shouldn't count.

S Tait of Australia is also very fast. The other day as bowling at +152 km per h and that too in all the overs. Great prospect. Interestingly, he was bowling in-swinging yorkers that Great Waqar Younus used to send down.

Love mink's response - how cool ! Actually I thought Brett Lee was quicker, i'll back the man anyway ! But what about all time, how does he compare to Holding, Marshall, Garner, Lilly, Pascoe & Co ?
