His fastest speed recorded during that world cup was 149.7
Indian Cricket Fever - The fastest legal bowlers in the world
I remember reading something a few months back where only two Indian bowlers had ever been recorded bowling at over 150k's, and they were Sharma and Srinath.
Srinath? Sreesanth?
Sharma is the fastest International Indian bowler. He bowled at 152.8 km/h at the CB series in Australia. He got the wicket of Andrew Symonds that ball.
Sreesanth Bowled his fastest of 149.7 km/h in Malaysia, against Australia, again.
But Before sharma got to the scenes, it was VRV singh who held the crown for the fastest Indian bowler. He bowled at 150.3 km/ph.
Well, coming back to the atul sharma topic, It's the hype media has built, I don't think Atul has done much to promote himself to get hype running around him. The Media were intrigued by him, and hyped him and they dug up this hole where atul faces all the blame if anything goes wrong. So it's not his fault if any rumour comes up about him or his activities. But rather the media which left the scenes later. In a shell, The media took him out of the pit, and they put him back there, just to hype him up.
And i remember correctly, when the man first came onto the scene of the IPL that he's contracted with the Rajasthan Royals, I checked up their squads and didn't find him. Well, there was only another Cricketer, wicketkeeper, 37 year old Atul sharma.
