 Shoaib vs Brett Lee
Brett Lee's max speed was 155.7KPH while that of Shoaib was 155.6 but in the Sharjah Cup Shoaib bowled a ball to Dravid of speed 156.4 or 156.6 and thus balled the second fastest ball of the cricket history.
In South Africa Lee bowled 2 balls at 156kmh, so as far as pace goes they're pretty much on a par.Having said that, Lee is believed to have been favoring his sore ankles, so some believe he's got a few more km left in him.
Lee was constantly in the high 130s, so he's either only 90% fit (ankle ops') or lost a bit of confidence with the "chucking" debacle.
