Anderson vs Steyn has never really been much of a debate anywhere except in certain dumb sections of the English media.

Meh if you watch the video it just points out exactly where their differences in effectiveness lie rather than trying to put it forward as a final answer to an eternal debate.

Yeah I was about to post that. Great read.
He says he wants to prove people wrong and play on till he's 38 and I really hope he does. Him being constantly injured has been a huge loss for test cricket over the last year.

That tidbit with Punter utterly disregarding him seems familiar. Maybe it was Steyn but I remember a couple of years ago a player in an interview mentioning they were quite upset with Ponting giving the cold-shoulder in the post-match handshakes.
Fantastic interview anyway.

I don't know of another cricketer of our generation that I have nothing but the greatest love and appreciation for in such a wholesomeway.
There are various cricketers I have loved in this decade, but they always have something going against them.
KP - great batsman but can be bit of a dick.
Misbah - great cricketer for his country, great captain, awesome ambassador of the game, but perhaps not an ATG batsman
Amir - nuff said
YK - ATG batsman but his temperamental nature has caused off field problems for the team at times
Anderson - great bowler but again a bit of a dick.
Steyn is the only cricketer of his generation where the genuine admiration for his skills is only matched by a genuine respect for the person that he comes across as.
A great great ambassador for South African cricket. I really really hope he inspires an entire generation of young South Africans to become great fast bowlers.
Back in the 90s, I used to be a massive fan of Donald. I think until about 2011-12, I would still say Donald was the greatest bowler, not necessarily based on reason, but just the fact that I loved Donald so much and felt he got done by injuries, but over the years I have now accepted wholeheartedly that Donald is the second greatest bowler from South Africa.
PS: The Cricket Monthly is the greatest thing to happen to cricket journalism today.

This excites me more than anything tbh, even more than India in England or the WC. Been deprived of my favourite cricketer for too long now.
(Faf with his shirt off as usual at 3:12 btw)

I don't want to get my hopes up again tbh. He's just going to break his shoulder again.
