Is it too early to declare Dale Steyn as an all-time great?

Unless Heath Streak was on song and took 10fer, Zimbabwe would struggle against the West Indies and NZ of today, because batting is their strong point.

Would definitely put money on the draw though.

Not ripping through the lineup tbf. 3 wickets, and 2 today.

Unbelievable spell though. One of the best I've ever seen. Plenty of bowlers have been rewarded with more wickets without half the quality.

When he starts hitting the stumps without result you'd be entitled to say he was unlucky though.

That ball to Pujara, ridiculous. Really was. How do you even start to play that? The one to Harbhajan was of similar vintage except that it didn't actually get him out, somehow.

100% agree. Most unlucky spell I've ever seen I reckon.

And yes, that ball to Pujara is probably the second best fast bowling delivery I've seen after Waqar's yorker to Lara.

Sreesanth's ball to Kallis in 2nd test?

Plus ,Sreesanth's ball to Prince in the first innings swung more than that ball to Pujara too and was awesome too.

Both of Sree's deliveries were amazing, but had a lot to do with movement off the pitch.

Steyn's ball was pure swing.

Mmm. Flintoff to Kallis the only better one I can remember.
