The Wheel is Forever
Maybe he did, but I'd like to know how that test was done and what the margin of error was on it. I'm skeptical.Tyson has been measured at 142KPH, wearing 3 sweaters, with metal plates attached to the ball.
Given that mid 140s was the standard pace of Akhtar and Tait and they only occasionally, on very fast wickets cranked it up to 160, I really don't see why we shouldn't believe the likes of Benaud. I also think that Thompson probably ramped it up to this speed on occasion as well.
