Matheesha Pathirana briefly registered 175 kph on the speed gun while bowling to Yashasvi Jaiswal, but it was later determined to be a technical glitch.
Here's a breakdown:
- The Incident: During a match, Pathirana bowled a delivery that was recorded as 175 kmph.
- The Batsman: The delivery was bowled to Indian under-19 batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal.
- The Issue: Subsequent investigation revealed that the speed gun reading was inaccurate due to a technical malfunction.
- The Reality: Therefore, while the speed gun showed 175 kph, it wasn't a legitimate record. Pathirana did not actually bowl at that speed.
In summary, while Matheesha Pathirana's delivery appeared to reach 175 kph, it was due to a faulty speed gun, and the reading was not accurate.
