Top 10 Fastest Deliveries Bowled In IPL 2018 So Far

The eleventh season of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2018) is in its full flow and we all are enjoying the T20 extravaganza in the most loved, popular and successful domestic T20 league in the world.

Fans in India and across the world mostly relate T20 cricket with big bats, small boundaries and huge sixes. But, in the last few years we have seen that teams that have better bowling attacks have been more successful in T20 leagues and also at the international level.
In IPL 2018, we are seeing lots of sixes and fours, and fans enjoy when a powerful hitter smashes bowlers outside the park. But, we have also seen some top class bowling and in this post, we will have a look at 10 fastest deliveries bowled in IPL 2018 so far.
Young Australian fast bowler Billy Stanlake has been the fastest bowler in the tournament so far. But, unfortunately for Sunrisers Hyderabad, he has been ruled out for the remainder of the tournament. Stanlake fractured his fifth finger on the right hand while fielding in the game against Chennai Super Kings.
Here are the 20 fastest deliveries bowled in IPL 2018 so far:
