Starc has bowled over 90 balls at 145 or more in the tournament. Archer and Wood are next in the list

Starc is still the quickest bowler on show on average and I am sure he can even breach Wood's top pace easily.  It might happen against England or in knockouts when he is pumped up.

please explain me your understanding. On what basis is Starc No 1?

Multiple observations-

 

He is left arm , when he is in rhythm ,he gets wickets almost at will.

He is probably marginally quicker than our fast bowler bumrah.

His Yorkers are the toughest.

 

Overall I have tried to judge without being partial.

All these bowlers are world beaters.

There is consistency in the speeds shown on TV and on Hawkeye  almost everytime. I have noticed that there are times when other stats like ball by ball runs scored or required runs in balls are shown the speeds don't get displayed on TV but get recorded on the website Hawkeye. It is these deliveries that are ignored when coming up with the fastest list.

Last ball of Rabada's 4th over was 149.4 according to ICC Website. Live TV did not display speed on that one

 

Even Bumrah's 147.4 kph and 147.3 kph deliveries were not shown on TV.

 

The fastest ball shown for Bumrah on TV was 147 kph, which was shown as 146.7 kph on the ICC website.

Like I said before, Rabada is a GTB. Works mostly in South Africa. He has been taken to the cleaners today. Good to see. No arguments now that Bumrah is a notch above!

He exhausted his best in IPL. Was the best fast bowler on show.

A good fast bowler is a good fast bowler. You cant exhaust quality.

Bumrah is on another level in odis.Currently only Starc at his best would challenge him.
