Fast bowling is a style of bowling in cricket where the bowler delivers the ball at high speeds, typically exceeding 85 miles per hour (137 km/h). This technique aims to challenge the batsman by making it difficult to react quickly. Fast bowlers often use a combination of pace, bounce, and swing to outsmart their opponents. Key elements of fast bowling include the run-up, delivery stride, and follow-through. Fast bowlers like Shane Warne and Brett Lee are known for their ability to generate speed and movement, making them crucial players in any cricket team. Their skills can lead to wickets and change the course of a match.
