So the legend got it up to 154km/h on Saturday. Almost unbelieveable.

This guy ain't slowing down.

Here is a question: do you think a 34 year-old has ever bowled at that speed in a cricket match before?

Shoaib is now 34. He touched 150kph last year against Aus albeit for one over.

Brett Lee whilst only 33 was bowling 150kph+ in England last summer. Will be interesting to see what speeds he will clock in the IPL.

Pretty sure Allan Donald came close. He was certainly still hitting 150kph at the age of 33.

I'm surprised with the speeds on display in this series.

Having not seen the Aussie's speeds this summer - are they proving on par this series as with their last?

Southee was hitting 145k's in the first game which made me sceptical.

was touching 150 for 4 overs on a trot in a domestic tourney last week.Lookest at his 2003-2005 fittest at the moment have a feeling he will have one final hurrah.
