I really like Lee but I doubt he will bowl quicker then 2003 world cup....he was awesome then (pacewise)

The anticipation of him emerging from the pavilion, and his walk from the boundary to the centre, is almost surreal. The sound of a passionate Indian crowd all chanting "Sachin, Sachin" as they wait in anticipation, followed by the enormous roar when he emerges onto the field, is electrifying.

In The Times this morning Tim Nielsen said he believed the Brett Lee could hit 100mph! I'm not so sure, his bowling in the last ODI was phenomenal but I don't think he has the pace to hit 100mph.

I think even if Brett himself believes he can bowl one ball at 100mph, he will not do so as with his age it is very easy for him to damage a muscle or his back. However, if there was a match to be won and only the last bats man standing between victory and a draw/defeta and Brett knew he can get that last wicket with a 100mph delivery I am very sure he will go for it.

Even at 90-95mph he is good on his day if he gets his line right. Its not the speed which makes him unplayable but that he tries to out think the bats man.
