Bowled 100mph balls twice however they didn’t recognise it as a result of I’m from Karachi: Mohammad Sami

Former Pakistan quick bowler Mohammad Sami claimed that he has crossed the 100-mph mark twice in his profession however that the file was not registered as he’s from Karachi.
“I bowled 100 mph twice in international cricket but they didn’t recognise it because I’m Karachite, I took 3 wickets in 4 overs but they changed my spell because I’m Karachite,” Sami was quoted as saying by journalist Shoaib Jatt on Twitter.

Shoaib Akhtar holds the file for the quickest supply in worldwide cricket, which was clocked at 161.3 kph (100.2 mph) throughout Pakistan’s match towards England within the 2003 World Cup.
However, in 2004, Shoaib’s teammate Mohammad Sami surpassed him with a 162.3 kmph supply towards India. The pacer’s ball was pushed via the covers for a boundary by then Indian captain Sourav Ganguly.

There has been one other ball by Sami which was recorded at 164 km/h however that ball had been dominated out resulting from “faulty speed measurements on the speed meter”.

The ICC has maintained that the tools used to measure pace varies at completely different grounds and so speeds from completely different matches can’t be in contrast.
