true, made a 60 against Lilee and Thommo while Bumrah's best is 34 against BroadGarner for his batting.
Garner played in 15 series.Damn that's surprising!!! Guess he wasn't that good in the '83 series.

YesHe has just 7 fifers in 58 matches. That is very low.
Exactly. He doesn't have those impactful performances to back up his credentials as well. Which is why Lillee should be ranked higher.Garner was never the main bowler in his lineup and always played second fiddle to Holding and then Marshall.
Lillee's average against Pakistan is skewed by his 1 series in Pakistan, but also because he mostly faced a Pakistan batting line up that was pretty decent. He faced arguably the best Pakistan lineups in our history.Lillee has quite a few holes in his record. Like barely playing outside Aus/Eng/NZ. His record against Pakistan is just poor(Avg of 30 in 17 Tests).
Joel Garner’s record is more rounded and almost perfect but he was more of a supporting act and played the role to absolute perfection.
Um Garner averages 19 in Pakistan. Still awesome. Don't mind me, just being nitpicking. Damn, I never realised how good he was outside of the WI.Garner

10 could be Lindwall, Holding , Garner or yes Trueman.Let's see:
MM
McGrath
Hadlee
Steyn
Ambrose
Imran
Lillee
Akram
Donald
Trueman
So no.
Not Donald, hard no on that imo.Such as? (I only see Trueman and maybe Donald who could be rated lower)
Lillee has to be higher than GarnerNow I having second thoughts whether to place Dennis Lillee ahead of him or not.
