Michael Holding, the former West Indies cricketer, is known as the "Whisper of Death" bowler.
Michael Anthony Holding (born February 16, 1954) earned this nickname due to his incredibly smooth, quiet, and deceptively fast approach to the bowling crease. His silent run-up made his express pace all the more surprising and intimidating for batsmen. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest fast bowlers in cricket history. His bowling action was so fluid and rhythmic, it appeared effortless, adding to the mystique surrounding his "Whispering Death" moniker.
