Are Yadhav/Aaron currently the fastest bowlers in the subcontinent?

[zen]

it isnt about Zaheer' date='nor I have called him trundler or anything.its about whether one can take test wickets at 130ish pace. i say yes if has other tools like swing,accuracy,reverse etc[/quote'] You can pick test wkts bowling spin too .... Thanks for missing the point Aktar picks up wkts bowling slower too

[panther]

btw riaz is back but based on consistency i would say yadav is quickest

[peterparker]

zaheer khan is in a different league and he should be left out of discussion..and yadav is quickest of the lot...by watching him it appears that he has more pace...need to watch him in brisbane and perth tests which aids fast bowling

I'm not talking of spin or slower balls,u know that.:facepalm: look at Chaminda Vaas for example,why should we discourage someone like that just because he doesnt bowl 140

zak was very much a 140 bowler in his youth. now he's 33. how can you expect him to bowl fast? waqar and donald were in 130s at end of his career. umesh i believe will do well in perth.

what is the speed at which wahab riaz bowls?

Wahab is an impressive bowler, left hander, with strong action and bowls close to 140 k

[BeautifulGame]

Any Left hander who can bowl at 140k+ is special IO.With the left armer's natural angle and pace they will take loads of wicket even if they cant swing the ball much.Express pace and left arm is a rare combination.

Mitchel Johnson for one.

Mitchel Johnson for one.

well mitch doesnot swing the ball true... but he does seam the ball of the track... plus he gets the advantage of bounce due to his height and high arm action... plus now that he is figured out around the world he is struggling as he doesnot have the variations

Mitchel Johnson for one.

Jonson doesnt swing the ball? Q-aN8-21Mpc

I didnt say he never swings the ball.I said he doesnt swing the ball much i.e he doesnt rely on swing.His big strengths are pace and angle like the Johanesburg spell.

[deathmonger]

yadav was beautiful release so he always gets bounce.. and looks quicker.. he is up there with rest pace wise and riaz i highly rate that guy good left arm bowler hope he destroys england!
