Wasn't Sami's 164 KPH..the fastest?

@Firefly0100 No. Shane Warne was not the greatest spin bowler of all times. He was the best Australians could come up with. The best was undoubtedly Murali. To down him, the Australian umpires kept noballing him. See, even the Australian umpires cheat. Some day you will find a way to throw dirt on Aleem Dar and Tendulker, so Simon Taufel and Border may look the best. The greatest captain of all times was Clive Lloyd. See WI after him, and I remember how they were before him.

@farooqihassan No, Australians do not cheat, you make ridiculous accusations without any backup and it makes you look like a tool. Warne is remembered as a hero because he is the greatest spin bowler of all time. Waugh because he is one of the greatest batsman and captains of all time.

@Firefly0100. South Asians cheat and so do Australians. The difference is, South Asians cheat their own countrymen by selling their souls for a few bucks, and Australians and Englishmen cheat other countries to prove their racial superiority. That is why Azhar, Jadeda, Saleem Malik, Ata etc got banned, whereas Shane Warne and Steve Waugh remains Australian heroes.

@farooqihassan Wow, shows how good of a society you live in if you're generalising all Aussies like that! Get your facts straight about the sport, we play fair and we judge fair. The only controversies that surround us are never provoked by us.

If Jeff Thomson can put a ball at the batsman's feet currently travelling
at over 160km/hr, it suggests it has been released from the hand at
something like 180km/hr .... which is a much higher speed than anything
Shoab Akhtar/Brett Lee have ever come remotely close to.
-
Speeds given in modern times are speeds out of the bowlers hand as measured from the batsman's end(by radar gun). Speeds given for Jeff Thomson are speeds of the ball arriving at the batsman's end as measured by high frame speed camera. One metre after delivery a ball has decreased speed by around 0.97 km/hr.

@DColon806 If its so dumb then why did you watch the vid?

@gilly2bad 100% agreed mate, these guys are kidding themselves. It really says something when 3 of your players are jailed for cheating.
You will be missed.

@farooqihassan Yes, Shane Warne is the best and will always be the best. He chucked the fucking ball, why do you think they changed it from a maximum 2 degree bend to 15? So he could continue bowling. The ICC is so corupt it's not funny and you are a usless tool.
