Shoaib Akhtar one of the fastest bowlers of the modern era. The Pakistani speedster was nicknamed as Rawalpindi express for his raw pace. He used bouncers regularly in his career with great success. The batsman would fall on the ground while trying to duck the ball. He injured both Gary Kirsten in the 2003 and Brian Lara in the year 2004 with fast bouncers. Both batsmen had to be taken off the field. Akhtar used it as a real asset in his arsenal and the ball would fetch him fruit too.
