ToggleCricket is a game which is considered to be dominated by batsmen. But if one looks closely at it, there have been instances where the bowling has also dominated the game. The pride of bowling and the jewel of any cricket line-up is a genuine fastest bowler. Over the years the art of fast bowling has evolved in varied ways.

Here we present a compilation of the top 10 fastest bowlers based both on speed, accuracy and perception.
