Brett Lee was arguably the fastest bowler in the history of cricket who habitually bowled at a speed of over 150 km/h. He did not officially set a new record as he was verging on breaking the record of Shoaib Akhtar. The speediest delivery that Lee reached was 161.1 km/h which is somewhat less compared to the fastest speed of Akhtar. He was the favorite of fans and always a batsman nightmare through hitting them hard during bowling with his aggressive style and clean action. He is also one of the most successful pacers in Australia.
