Well apparently… from BBC
Former captain Raees Ahmadzai (Afghanistan) reels off achievements breathlessly and says the time is not far when they can take on the game’s big teams.
“We have great fast bowlers. They are faster than Indian pace bowlers and on a par with the Pakistanis,” he says.
“Hamid Hasan has clocked bowling speeds of 145mph. Shahpur Zadran, another pacer, has clocked 140mph.”

This basically proves that the mph a typo, and these afghanis are clocking in at 145 km/h. Thats pretty decent by the way, I hope they qualify.

145 km/h means they're on par with perhaps Rana Naved. Sami is 150+ and Shoaib has gone 155+ frequently.
