T20 cricket consists of a mixture of various elements. You have cricketers trying all their tricks in this format. Thus, bowling slower deliveries have now become a trend. However, no matter how many tricks a bowler pulls up, the pace is pace. Nothing can substitute raw and genuine pace. Thus, every <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/kkr-kolkata-knight-riders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL</a> team has at least one express pacer on their side.

Over the years, we have seen a rise in the number of Indian pacers who have been able to generate pace. This wasn&#8217;t the case earlier but with time, Indian bowlers have realized the importance of speed in the shortest format of the game. So which are those Indian bowlers who have bowled the fastest deliveries in the IPL of late?

Here are the 10 Fastest Balls by Indians in IPL Since 2012:

It came in the fourth delivery of his second over.

Although it was a full toss, he still did manage to breach Lockie Ferguson&#8217;s 152.75. Thus, he has also bowled the fastest ball of IPL 2021 as of now it won&#8217;t be surprising if he manages to clock the 152 barriers again in his next match.

He recorded 152.85 kmph during the 2019 edition of the IPL. This also happened to be the second-fastest of the season behind Kagiso Rabada.

That season turned out to be a memorable one for the speedster. He was one of the positives from a rather dismal season for Bangalore. Thus, it was only a matter of time before he played for India.

<img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-560954 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umran-Malik.jpg" alt="Umran Malik" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-560954" class="wp-caption-text">Umran Malik clocked 151.77 kmph.

The young lad was regularly bowling at 150 kmph for fun. It seems bowling quick is a natural gift for him. Thus, he too happens to find his name on this list several times.

9) 151.56 &#8211; Umesh Yadav

<img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-251637 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umesh-Yadav-2.jpg" alt="Umesh Yadav" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-251637" class="wp-caption-text">Umesh Yadav clocked 151.56 kmph in 2012. (Photo by IANS)</figcaption>

Umesh Yadav is arguably one of the most underrated Indian pacers. He has been an asset to several IPL teams as well. While he does tend to for a few runs, he has the ability to pick wickets.

That&#8217;s not it as he also has a knack of generating pace good enough to hurry the opposition batters. Thus, he finds himself on this list. The pacer clocked 151.56 kmph in 2012.

The Delhi Capitals pacer has picked 119 wickets in 120 IPL games so far His bowling average and strike rate are 30.08 and 21.19, respectively. He has an economy rate is 8.51, which is decent in this format of the game.

(Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Yadav&#8216;s ability to bowl fast at will is something that every captain would dream of. This is one of the major reasons why he generally gets the new ball while playing the IPL. He tends to hurry the batters which ends up in them playing a bad short or missing the ball.

The pacer clocked 151.44 kmph in 2018. This was when he was representing the Royal Challengers Bangalore. This is the tenth-fastest delivery bowled by an Indian in the history of the league.

2018 turned out to be one of his best IPL seasons. He ended up picking 20 wickets in just the 14 games in that season. His economy rate in 2018 was on the lower side as well (7.86).

T20 cricket consists of a mixture of various elements. You have cricketers trying all their tricks in this format. Thus, bowling slower deliveries have now become a trend. However, no matter how many tricks a bowler pulls up, the pace is pace. Nothing can substitute raw and genuine pace. Thus, every <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/kkr-kolkata-knight-riders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL</a> team has at least one express pacer on their side.

<figure id="attachment_251637" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-251637" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="max-width: 100%; margin: 0;"><amp-img class="wp-image-251637 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umesh-Yadav-2.jpg" alt="Umesh Yadav" width="640" height="400" layout="responsive" style="max-width: 100%; margin: 0;"></amp-img><figcaption id="caption-attachment-251637" class="wp-caption-text">Umesh Yadav clocked 151.56 kmph in 2012.

Umesh Yadav is arguably one of the most underrated Indian pacers. He has been an asset to several IPL teams as well. While he does tend to for a few runs, he has the ability to pick wickets.
That’s not it as he also has a knack of generating pace good enough to hurry the opposition batters. Thus, he finds himself on this list. The pacer clocked 151.56 kmph in 2012.
The Delhi Capitals pacer has picked 119 wickets in 120 IPL games so far His bowling average and strike rate are 30.08 and 21.19, respectively. He has an economy rate is 8.51, which is decent in this format of the game.
<h3>10) 151.44 – Umesh Yadav</h3>
<figure id="attachment_239883" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-239883" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="max-width: 100%; margin: 0;"><amp-img class="wp-image-239883 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umesh-Yadav.jpg" alt="Umesh Yadav" width="640" height="400" layout="responsive" style="max-width: 100%; margin: 0;"></amp-img><figcaption id="caption-attachment-239883" class="wp-caption-text">Umesh Yadav clocked 151.44 kmph in 2018. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption></figure>
Yadav‘s ability to bowl fast at will is something that every captain would dream of. This is one of the major reasons why he generally gets the new ball while playing the IPL. He tends to hurry the batters which ends up in them playing a bad short or missing the ball.
The pacer clocked 151.44 kmph in 2018. This was when he was representing the Royal Challengers Bangalore. This is the tenth-fastest delivery bowled by an Indian in the history of the league.
2018 turned out to be one of his best IPL seasons. He ended up picking 20 wickets in just the 14 games in that season. His economy rate in 2018 was on the lower side as well (7.86).

T20 cricket consists of a mixture of various elements. You have cricketers trying all their tricks in this format. Thus, bowling slower deliveries have now become a trend. However, no matter how many tricks a bowler pulls up, the pace is pace. Nothing can substitute raw and genuine pace. Thus, every <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/kkr-kolkata-knight-riders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL</a> team has at least one express pacer on their side.
Over the years, we have seen a rise in the number of Indian pacers who have been able to generate pace. This wasn&#8217;t the case earlier but with time, Indian bowlers have realized the importance of speed in the shortest format of the game. So which are those Indian bowlers who have bowled the fastest deliveries in the IPL of late? 
<h2>Here are the 10 Fastest Balls by Indians in IPL Since 2012:</h2>
<h3>1) 152.95 kmph &#8211; Umran Malik</h3>
<figure id="attachment_566503" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-566503" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-566503 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umran-Malik-2.jpg" alt="Umran Malik" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-566503" class="wp-caption-text">Umran Malik has clocked 152.95 kph during his side&#8217;s match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday.

Umran Malik has now become the talk of the town. The lad from Jammu and Kashmir has already grabbed the headlines despite playing just the two IPL games. Several cricket pundits are even hailing him as the next big thing in Indian cricket.
The youngster delivered the fastest delivery in IPL history. He has clocked <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/hes-breathing-fire-twitter-goes-berserk-as-srhs-umran-malik-delivers-record-153kmph-thunderbolt-against-rcb/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">152.95 kph</a> during his side&#8217;s match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday. It came in the fourth delivery of his second over.
Although it was a full toss, he still did manage to breach Lockie Ferguson&#8217;s 152.75. Thus, he has also bowled the fastest ball of IPL 2021 as of now it won&#8217;t be surprising if he manages to clock the 152 barriers again in his next match.
<h3>2) 152.85 &#8211; Navdeep Saini</h3>
<figure id="attachment_327656" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-327656" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-327656 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Navdeep-Saini.jpg" alt="Navdeep Saini" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-327656" class="wp-caption-text">Navdeep Saini recorded 152.85 kmph during the 2019 edition of the IPL. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption></figure>
Navdeep Saini is one of the most talented Indian pacers currently. He has been widely regarded as one of the fastest Indian pacers as well. He was highly talked about even before he made his international debut.
Thus, the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/rcb-royal-challengers-bangalore/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">RCB</a> pacer has bowled the second fastest delivery by an Indian pacer in IPL history. He recorded 152.85 kmph during the 2019 edition of the IPL. This also happened to be the second-fastest of the season behind Kagiso Rabada.
That season turned out to be a memorable one for the speedster. He was one of the positives from a rather dismal season for Bangalore. Thus, it was only a matter of time before he played for India.
<h3>3) 152.83 &#8211; Navdeep Saini</h3>
<figure id="attachment_450210" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-450210" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-450210 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Navdeep-Saini.jpg" alt="Navdeep Saini" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-450210" class="wp-caption-text">Navdeep Saini had clocked 152.83 kmph in his debut season. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption></figure>
Navdeep Saini is going to find his name on this list several times. This was one of the major reasons why his captain Virat Kohli backed him so much earlier on. His ability to hit the deck hard is a rare talent.
Thus, the speedster has recorded the third-fastest delivery in IPL history too. He had clocked 152.83 kmph in his debut season. This means that it came again in 2019.
Saini then went on to pick 13 wickets in that season. It is safe to say that he was RCB&#8217;s X factor. Thus, the fans of the franchise would want him to repeat his heroics whenever given a chance in the near future.
<h3>4) 152.48 &#8211; Navdeep Saini</h3>
<figure id="attachment_327656" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-327656" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-327656 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Navdeep-Saini.jpg" alt="Navdeep Saini" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-327656" class="wp-caption-text">Navdeep Saini clocked 150.48 kmph in his debut season in 2019. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption></figure>
As mentioned earlier, Saini&#8217;s name would pop up on this list time and again. Seldom would you see an Indian pacer who can continuously clock the 150-mark. Saini has now made it a habit to bowl above 150 kmph.
He clocked 150.48 kmph in his debut season in 2019. Thus, he has bowled the fourth-fastest ball by an Indian pacer in <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL</a> history. This propelled him to play 13 games in that season. 
The RCB pacer had picked 11 wickets in that season. His bowling average and strike rate were 36.09 and 26.18 respectively. His economy rate was 8.27.
<h3>5) 152.47 &#8211; Navdeep Saini</h3>
<figure id="attachment_450210" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-450210" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-450210 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Navdeep-Saini.jpg" alt="Navdeep Saini" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-450210" class="wp-caption-text">Navdeep Saini had clocked 152.47 kmph which is the fifth-fastest delivery by an Indian in IPL history. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI)</figcaption></figure>
Navdeep Saini was regularly bowling around 152 kmph in 2019. That was one of the major reasons why he was given a long run. He had bowled as many as four deliveries which clocked above 152 kmph.
Out of the four, this was one amongst them. He had clocked 152.47 kmph which is the fifth-fastest delivery by an Indian in IPL history. Post-IPL 2019, he went on to make his T20I debut in August 2019 against West Indies.
So far, the speedster has played 10 T20Is. He has picked 13 wickets at an average and strike rate of 18.08 and 15.5 respectively. His economy rate in T20Is is 7.16, which is really good in this format of the game.
<h3>6) 151.98 &#8211; Navdeep Saini</h3>
<figure id="attachment_327656" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-327656" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-327656 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Navdeep-Saini.jpg" alt="Navdeep Saini" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-327656" class="wp-caption-text">Navdeep Saini bowled a delivery at 151.98 kmph in 2019. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption></figure>
Navdeep Saini&#8217;s standards are so high that him touching the 150 mark doesn&#8217;t come as a surprise. A talent like him needs to be preserved with utmost care. It gets better when you realize that he was so quick in his maiden IPL season.
The pacer again holds the record for bowling the sixth-fastest delivery by an Indian in <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL</a> history. He bowled a delivery at 151.98 kmph in 2019. This resulted in him getting a reputation of being a pacer who can bowl thunderbolts at will.
Speaking about his overall numbers, Saini has played 28 IPL games so far. He has picked 17 wickets at an average and strike rate of 48.71 and 34.47 respectively. His economy rate is 8.48.
<h3>7) 151.97 &#8211; Umran Malik</h3>
<figure id="attachment_566503" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-566503" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-566503 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umran-Malik-2.jpg" alt="Umran Malik" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-566503" class="wp-caption-text">Umran Malik was able to bowl a delivery at 151.97. (photo Source: Twitter/Indian Premier League)</figcaption></figure>
One can call it a fluke if someone accomplishes something once and perishes after that, however, the youngster keeps bowling quicker deliveries thus, proving that he is special. The pacer from Jammu and Kashmir can turn out to be an asset if groomed properly.
In just two matches. The quick has earned himself several fans across the nation. He was able to bowl a delivery at 151.97 and thus also holds the record for the seventh-fastest ball by an Indian in the history of the league.
It gets scary when you realize that he was hitting the 150 make for fun. He regularly clocked above 150 in the eighth over against <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/rcb-royal-challengers-bangalore/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">RCB</a>. Even the likes of Glenn Maxwell struggled against him.
<h3>8) 151.77 &#8211; Umran Malik</h3>
<figure id="attachment_560954" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-560954" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-560954 size-full" src="https://crictracker-admin-panel-08032022.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/media/attachments/Umran-Malik.jpg" alt="Umran Malik" width="640" height="400" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"><figcaption id="caption-attachment-560954" class="wp-caption-text">Umran Malik clocked 151.77 kmph. (Photo Source: Instagram)</figcaption></figure>
There was a reason why he started trending across all social media sites during his debut game. While one wouldn&#8217;t generally associate express pace with Indian players, the fans would change their opinion after watching Umran Malik. It is shocking that the Sunrisers Hyderabad didn&#8217;t play him in their XI all this time.
The young lad was regularly bowling at 150 kmph for fun. It seems bowling quick is a natural gift for him. Thus, he too happens to find his name on this list several times.
The speedster clocked 151.77 kmph and thus, has also bowled the eighth-fastest delivery by an Indian in IPL history. If groomed properly, he can be an asset for India in the near future. Hence, it won&#8217;t be surprising if he gets purchased for a large amount in the upcoming mega auctions for <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/t20/ipl-indian-premier-league/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPL</a> 2022.
