A former India fast bowler is reported to have delivered a ball measured at 156 kph during a domestic match. The speed surpassed Allan Donald's recorded best at the time.

The report states the delivery occurred before electronic speed guns became standard in Indian domestic cricket. The bowler also took a hat-trick on debut and claimed 87 wickets in a single season.

No name was released in the report published by Hindustan Times.

CricHubb Take

Without recorded data, the story functions as folklore rather than statistical benchmark for future Indian speed comparisons.
