Top of the ICC rankings for bowlers is currentyl South African seam bowler Dale Steyn for test matches and New Zealand spin bowler Daniel Vettori for One Day Internationals
England spin bowler Graeme Swann appears highest in both test (2nd) and ODI's (4th) which suggests he is currently the best bowler in the world across all formats of the game.
Though Jeff "Thommo" Thomson of Australia was long regarded as the fastest bowler in the world (with a fastest ball clocked at 99.7 mph and rumoured to have broken the 100mph barrier), today Shoaib Akhtar of Pakistan, Brett Lee and Shaun Tait of Australia are considered the fastest bowlers in the history of the game. Shoaib Akhtar has been timed at over 100 mph and was the first bowler that has broken the barrier, though his pace was questioned along with colleague Mohammed Asif's, after it was discovered they had both taken the banned substance Nandralone, a steroid which enhances performance. Therefore, it is widely considered that the pace either can bowl at was not genuine. Muhammad Sami of Pakistan was also clocked at 100 mph but readings from the speed gun were thought not to be right at the time, raising eyebrows at the claim, Sami was then clocked on 100 mph in the same match.
I think Shaun Tait bolwed more than 102 mph in domestic cricket match.
How ever he is yet to bowl a full throttle delivery that will break the barrier.
