Running is now a very important matter in cricket as the fastest running is now more preferable than the batting and/or bowling forms. Speedy running not only helps for the fielding, but it also helps in batting as a runner, who can snatch some extra runs with the hasty running speed. Moreover, it always helps to build up self-confidence and team morale in any situation.
There are some great cricketers who are impressive runners and they mostly maintain this image passionately. Some of them are aged over 30 and they are still improving in their fitness.
Here we are talking about the top five fastest running cricketers in the present world.

Though Jadeja has faced many ups and downs, he has continuously grown up by improving his game. Jadeja’s one of the best points is his unstoppable running speed, which is off course the effect of his outstanding fitness.
