Shoaib Akhtar and Brett Lee are two fastest bowlers at the current moment. Both have created problems for the batsmen around the world with their sheer pace... Although Shoaib Akhtar has lost about half of his career due to injuried and bans..
But Who U think is the better bowler among these two???
I personally believe Shoaib Akhtar is more lethal than Brett Lee. His yorkers are amazing. I once remember Shoaib Akhtar clean bowled both Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar in 2 successive yorker delieveries in a Test....
What you say??

Shoaib is better than Brett lee as he is more faster than the lee.Due to his speed he could be more lethal on his day but he has ruined his career with the scandals and the bans.
Brett lee is more accurate as far his line and length is concerned . As a whole shoaib is better than lee

No,
Shaun Tait is a way better bowler; he has soo much pace. His extra height gives him an advantage too. What about Lisith Malinga? Pretty unorthodox technique; but it seems to be effective; hopefull he starts taking heaps of wickets. We (australia) are out of spin bowling stocks though.

Well I believe no doubt Shoaib is better when balling in his rythem but........he is not a team player!!!!!!!!!!bret lee is better on this issue!!!!!!!!!!however!!!!!!!!!On his day shoaib can really be a monster for the batsmen!!!!
Furthermore Pakistan has now got a match of bret in being a calmer and a team player!!!!!!!and that is Mohammad Asif....!!!! I think he should be compared with Bret Lee not Shoaib!!!!!

it's difficult to say that who is best among this two as both are good in bowling and both has created problems and had win matches for there team.
brett lee is good when there is a swing in pitch he utilises it very well when compared to akhtar and akhtar yorkers are good as you said.

Bretlee all the way! there is no doubt in that! But i have to admit one thing "THE SCENE OF A FULLY CHARGED SHOAIB AKTHAR COMING WITH HIS FULL RUNUP WITH HIS FLYING HAIR AND DELIVERING AN INSWINGING INDIPPING YORKER AT 155 KMPH UPROOTING THE MIDDLE STUMP OUT OF THE GROUD IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SCENE I'VE EVER SEEN IN CRICKET" he is a real show piece for the game of cricket (just his bowling and nothing else) Lee is more complete cricketer, and his on field and off the filed behaviour is spectacular!
