Lockie Ferguson beats Umran Malik for the fastest delivery of IPL 2022

Bengaluru, May 29: Young uncapped Indian pace sensation Umran Malik had held the lead for the fastest delivery of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, but New Zealand speedster Lockie Ferguson beat him to the top in the final on Sunday (May 29).

In the IPL 2022 Final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Ferguson representing Gujarat Titans clocked the fastest delivery of the season - 157.3kmph - when he bowled a yorker at Rajasthan Royals opener Jos Buttler.

Earlier, in match 50 against Delhi Capitals, Sunrisers Hyderabad pace sensation Umran bowled at 157kmph surpassing his previous best of 154.8kmph, which he bowled in the same match as well. He also clocked 155.6kmph in the final over.

The race for the fastest delivery of the season has been between Umran and Ferguson with the likes of South Africa pacer Anrich Nortje just returning from long injury lay-off.

Here is the top 5 fastest deliveries so far in IPL 2022 and the list is dominated by Umran:

PLAYER BOWLING SPEED IN KMPH
Lockie Ferguson (GT 157.3
Umran Malik (SRH) 157
Umran Malik (SRH) 155.6
Umran Malik (SRH) 154.8
Lockie Ferguson (GT) 154.4

Apart from the duo, Ferguson's teammate in GT, West Indies' Alzarri Joseph, Lucknow Super Giants' Sri Lankan speedster Dushmantha Chameera have consistently clocked high speeds. Kagiso Rabada, who once bowled at very quick pace has not reached the heights as yet.

Indian pacers Jasprit Bumrah, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna and Navdeep Saini are also among the list for fastest delivery in a match this season. Uncapped Akash Deep, Kuldeep Sen and Harshit Rana too have bowled quick.

Also, Umran has won the Swiggy Instant fastest delivery award in every match SRH played this season. Chameera too has won the award most often when LSG have played and the same can be said of Ferguson when GT plays.
