I watched Glenn McGrath bowl at North Sydney Oval in a NSW V Tasmania 50 over game when he was in his prime. Brett Lee was his bowling partner that day, and God he bowled quick.

North Sydney Oval is quite small and intimidate so you really get to experience the players; and I can say that I much preferred to watch Brett Lee in action because he was charismatic and entertaining.

Fast bowlers should be larger than life - Dennis LILLEE.

I expect the fun to start at the no. 4 spot
Its funny if Ambrose is going to occupy that spot.
If its Steyn ( or Lillee ) thats legitimate.
?

Steyn, Ambrose, Lillee, Imran, Akram, Trueman.. Order is almost fixed.Dont expect too much fun.

I found this video with excellent footage of O’Reilly bowling. Enjoy!

(Yes he’s really quick for a spinner)

that is the kumble underwood chandra zone. quicker than traditional spinners but still spinners.

doesn't change the fact that barnes was medium paced. not to be bunched together

Bizarre. I’d choose to watch McGrath in his prime over Lee in his, any day
