The Kolkata Knight Riders face the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 19th match of the Tata IPL. The Kolkata Knight Riders won the coin toss and elected to deploy their team first. The choice was apparent, given that the team bowling second wished to avoid dampness on the ground.
The spin and velocity of KKR’s deliveries are both varied. Lockie Ferguson, the team’s primary fast bowler, has already surpassed the 150-kilometer-per-hour barrier twice during the course of the game.
Lockie Ferguson achieves 150 Kph twice in his first over, the fastest in IPL history.
Ferguson is currently bowling at maximum speed. In his very first over against Sunrisers Hyderabad, the New Zealand pacer exceeded 150 kilometers per hour not once, but twice. Mayank Agarwal was dismissed by Ferguson’s third delivery, which clocked 150 kilometers per hour, for a dot.
He then delivered the final ball of the over at 151.2 kilometers per hour to Harry Brook, who smashed it direct to the fielder in the covers. Brook hit a very accurate drive, but it was caught by the catcher in the outfield to prevent a single.
Who is the current quickest bowler for India?
Express from Jammu In the Indian Premier League, Umran Malik, who plays for Sunrisers Hyderabad, has been making ripples with his speed. On May 5, 2022, against Delhi Capitals, Malik delivered the fastest ball ever thrown by an Indian in the IPL, recording an impressive 157 kilometers per hour.
He is one of the few Indian fast bowlers capable of consistently bowling over 145 kilometers per hour, and he has also left his impression on the Indian cricket team. Against Sri Lanka in January 2023, he eclipsed the record for the quickest delivery by an Indian in Twenty20 International Cricket with a speed of 155 kilometers per hour.
During the same series, Malik established a new record for the quickest Indian bowler in One-Day International cricket by bowling at 156 Kmph in an ODI match.
