Big Bird was in a class of his own.

How many members will perpetuate the tiresome "the answer is Jadeja" nonsense. Their game has outworn its novelty and portrays neither the 'voters' nor Jadeja in a positive light.

See the light. Come towards it - it's better on this side.

The name is Bond.

Just a novice thought. Like WACA, is the name Bond adding to his reputation? Would he be rated the same if his name was Tuffey or Toffee?

Other, Bond.
the answer is garner, murali or mcgrath but bond is right up there along with mitchell starc. going mcgrath because i think he did it when it was hardest.

I voted Akram but could easily have gone for Murali, but that searing reverse swing from the left arm angle is the best view in cricket, so had to not for Wazza! World cup winner, 2 time finalist, great performances pretty much everywhere in the peak era of ODI bowling...what more is there?

Just wondering how Jadeja gets the lead in votes :laugh:

watch out or you're going to go full Burgey claiming World Cup ODIs are the only ones that matter.

Much harder to pick the best ever ODI bowler. No one (or two/three) players stand heads and shoulders above the rest, and so it really depends on conditions and whether you value new ball/middle overs/death bowlers higher.

That`s incorrect. Burgey never claimed that.


He claims only WC ODI finals matter.

McGrath was Big Bird plus longevity
