10 fastest bowlers in Indian history

Third Test - Australia v India: Day 2
RP Singh once clocked the 147 kmph mark

#9. Mohammad Shami

Australia v India: 3rd Test - Day 1
Mohammad Shami is a genuine pacer with smooth action

A bowler with a clean action, clear state of mind and who put in plenty of hard work, it is no surprise that Mohammad Shami finds himself a spot in the list of India's fastest bowlers.

The right-arm pacer has terrific stamina and control that allows him to bowl probing lines over after over without losing the steam. He consistently bowls over 140 kmph mark and in overseas conditions where the pitches suit pace bowling, his speed can reach up to 146 kmph.
