Kartik Tyagi bowls 154 kph thunderbolt in UPT20 League
Kartik Tyagi’s 154 kph delivery puts him back on India’s fast-bowling selection radar.
Fast bowler Kartik Tyagi recorded a speed of 154 kilometres per hour during a rain-affected UPT20 League match for Meerut Mavericks. He finished with figures of one for 19 as his team extended their winning streak.
Tyagi credited conversations with Dale Steyn for helping him refine his yorker length and improve consistency after repeated injury setbacks. He had earlier bowled a 149 kph toe-crushing yorker in the same competition.
Selectors have noted the speed and accuracy combination ahead of India’s limited-overs tours later this year.
CricHubb Take
A single speed-gun reading does not guarantee selection, but it resets the narrative around Tyagi from injury concern to express-pace prospect.
