I know this isn't a hustings type thread but thought I'd make one point - Our runaway winner, Maco, played in 14 full English seasons - he topped the bowling averages just once in that time - Harold Larwood played in only twelve full English seasons - he topped the averages as many as five times

1. Harold Larwood
2. Jim Laker
