Australian rising speedster Pat Cummins said that he is hoping to surpass his own pace record of 153 km/hr by launching a quicker delivery during the ongoing World Cup campaign.

Earlier, Cummins clocked at 153 km/hr in a one-dayer at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

Reflecting on his pace, Cummins said that he had got up to 153km/hr and, he hoped he could bowl quicker than that, News.com.au reported.

Cummins further said that some days he seemed to get into a really good rhythm and the ball just seemed to be flying out of his hand, adding that he was a guy who just rips in and tries to bowl quickly, the report added.

The rising pace bowler is eagerly waiting for his turn to go at full-throttle, complementing Australian much-vaunted bowling line-up, which encompasses pace spearhead Mitchell Johnson, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazelwood.

After winning the World Cup opener against England by 111 runs, Australia will next meet Bangladesh on Friday in Brisbane.
