Best bowler of the 1990s?

There are plenty of contenders, but this is the guy who scared me the most:

What's weird is that people say he was roundarm... he obviously wasn't

I doubt anyone would argue that Wasim and Waqar was by far the best bowling combination in the 1990's ... even by themselves they destroyed most teams.

WB DICK. Resume posting tx Very Happy


and ya.....Waqars sandshoe crushers and Wasims stealthy menace were easily the most impressive_scary element in cricket from that era, as the previously brutal Windies were fading fast, and most other teams had only one fearsome spearhead each.....at best.

Back in those days I actually loved the Pakis...before they turned all bent an self destrutcive an shit they seemed to be pretty special. I hate to think thats its possible that it was actually just uninhibated ball tampering....

fk i hate it when i try to post drunk an dit takes me for ever to check typos and even then im not sur e if ive im postingbollix . Too bad! *post* Very Happy

btw Waqar was described as having "a round arm action"..rather than actually being round arm. That sounds slightly wack but I think there is a distinction

WW was clearly one of the worlds most boring bowlers and his batting was Chris Martin-esk. Hell of a nice chap though

I personally rate Wasim over Waqar, I just think he had amazing control over the ball in all condiitons, and obviously his longevity and batting ability meant that he'd be an automatic pick.

If not them, then big Curtly for real.

Wasim is the best swing bowler I've ever seen. His denied LBW shout on Croft is one the best balls you'll ever see.




Around the wicket, full toss, unbelievably plumb.
