What is the best ball to take a wicket from a non regular bowler?

Aravinda de Silva beating Healy through the gate in the WC is also qualifies IMO.

Aravinda bowled too much in ODIs for this to count IMO, but it is your thread so I'll defer, haha.

Damien Martyn bowled a bit for WA too in his younger days, there was a couple seasons in the 50 over comp where he was basically playing as an all-rounder

He was well and truly part-timer territory when he came back post-2000 though

Think Rahul Dravid definitely qualifies as a part-time part-timer.

Here the great man nabs Saeed Anwar (on 95) who tries to monster an offie that leaves him just a touch:

Yeah young Martyn could seriously bowl.

Good chance to post this again. All 5 wickets here pretty good, but the deliveries to Ponting and Hussey in particular are genuinely world class.

Ganguly embarrassing Kallis

Tendulkar making Warne look like a noob by showing him how to bowl leg spin in India. Better googly than any Warne has bowled tbh.

I guess Hayden may have been sligthly outside the line but the reaction of the Aussies will probably put Virat Kohli to shame for what seem pretty straight forward LBWs.

I mean, even if we had DRS, two were plumb and Hayden would have been, at worst, umpire's call on impact.

Jesus how ugly was Ian Healy's batting. No idea how he managed to get 4 test centuries

I see the sweepathon of ‘23 was not the first of it’s kind

Border to gatting 87 WC final

Probably dozens of part-time spinners bowled unplayable balls on dustbowl pitches in Asia

Or some random trundler getting crazy swing on green tops.

Anderson counts too, based on his recent workload.

Wait till you look at his face.

This is the best I've seen by a part timer:

I can't think of any tbh. Maybe the likes of Jesse Ryder or Mark Cosgrove in county cricket but can't recall any part time medium pacers bowling great balls on Test green tops. Probably because on green tops most teams have at least 3 or 4 proper seamers do don't need to resort to a part timer

Think there is video where Dhoni almost got prime KP lbw at Lord's.

See the Ganguly video that I shared. Ganguly is under 120kmph and looks like Malcolm Marshall Philander on that track.
