Well we obviously do.PhoenixFire said:You can't say that no one has ever bowled that fast until you have faced every single delivery ever bowled, which I doubt you have. Many, many spectators, including highly esteemed writers and columnists, have said that they believe that Frank Tyson was faster than any bowler that they have ever seen, and that they could easily understand that he would break the 100mph mark with his stock effort ball, unlike any other bowler. Now I'm not catorgorically stating that I believe that Tyson bowled as fast as he claimed, but given the day and condition, I find no reason why anyone shouldn't believe him, since you don't really get 75 year old men lying about how fast they bowled in internet columns.
119MPH is just unbelievably fast, if you've ever seen anything close to 90mph you'll know that bowling that speed is immpossible.
And hasn't anyone mentioned Mohamad Zahid? Apparently he was quicker than Shoaib.
