All And All Mate,Jeff Thomson For Me Is The Fastest From 1972 Till Present Day,Even Though I Am A Pakistani,I Would Still Say That Thomson Is The Fastest,With That Amazing Sling Action And That Cross Jump Hes Still A Force To Be Reckon With,And Plz Stop Being Childish About Religious Abuses,India Might Not Have Produced The Fastest Bowler But Atleast Respect Their Bating Lineup,Wich Has Been Dominating For Over A Decade,My Vote For Jeff Thomson,Lille Thomson,The Greatest Bowlers Ever!!!

Its all Australian Propaganda that Thomson is the fastest. We have seen shoaib Akhtar Bowling at 100m/h and ICC suddenly declare that as non-official. This is all bullshit.

Even though he won this competition, it's important to remember that Jeff Thompson was bowling much faster in 1975, around the 100mph mark.

Nobody hates the Pakistani's. Most Pakistani's know that. The whole cricket world, and civilisation in general was doing fine until India came along. I don't know why they keep flocking to Australia. We hate them!
