Those random bowlers you are talking about were Brett Lee, Shoaib, Tait. Mohd Sami at times. Other than these, there weren't many bowlers hitting 150+. While nowadays, focus is more on variations than just pace especially on Indian pitches. Otherwise bowlers like Wood, Archer, lockie, Ashok, Mayank, Umran can also bowl 150 regularly. express bowling and tapandrun 2

Matlab that even at 160s,batters seems to have time to move back and forth on those deliveries. Aus vs Eng 2003 WC, Lee's first two deliveries were at 159.7 and 160.x kph...they looked fast but nothing unplayable. Now a days at 150+ kph, batters seems almost rushed as if they had no clue. Ashoks 154kph went to Jurel like a bullet. express bowling 1

Ashoks 154kph went to Jurel like a bullet. High speed cameras are very accurate for measuring bowling speeds. But they take a bit of time to give speed readings. Which is why they are used in Hawk-eye. But speed guns are still needed for showing speeds immediately on TV as they give readings quickly. Speed Guns are not that accurate and if you set up 10 speed guns then you will get 10 pretty different speed readings. Which is why multiple speed guns are set up and the average reading is taken nowadays In the 2000s decade, often the highest speed reading of the different speed guns was taken ( as Speed showing on TV was still pretty new and they wanted to market high speeds ). And we sometimes had bowlers clocking higher speeds than they seemed to be bowling at. While nowadays the speed readings shown seem more rational. Mosher and tapandrun 2
