4 most feared fast bowlers of recent times
The cricketing world is filled with worthy fast bowlers, who can tame the topmost batsmen of the world on their day. Here is a list that aims to unearth five most feared fast bowlers of today's era.
Though there are numerous pacers who can tick the box, these four bowlers are definitely the best of the lot.
#1 Mitchell Starc
Thie Australian left-arm fast bowler is amongst the most feared bowlers in the world at present. With his innate ability to swing the ball both ways, it invariably becomes difficult for the batsmen to read his variations. He can consistently hit the deck hard at a speed of over 140 km/hr and his ability to swing the ball both ways, with pace, makes him even more destructive.
A true competitor that Mitchell Starc is, he gives the best batsmen in the world a run for their money. He has been breaking records ever since he started wearing the baggy green. Starc broke the record held by Saqlain Mushtaq of being the fastest to 100 ODI wickets, in just 53 matches.
He was recently bought by the IPL Franchisee Kolkata Knight Riders at a staggering price of Rs 9.4 crore.
