O’Reilly wasn’t a mystery bowler to get found out.Lack of video analysis did wonders for the spinners of the ancient past.
Modern day spinners get found out within a year or two and revert to the mean.
O'Reilly is not even close to Warne and Murali.
A 6.3 guy, bowling at very high speed who mainly relied upon accuracy with pretty good leg break and googly would be great regardless of the era.This guy was pretty good when both Bradman and Hutton put him no.1. Keith Miller a decent bowler in his own way describes him as the finest bowler of any type he ever saw. You know this guy was something when people were calling him equal to Barnes including Hobbs himself. Tbh I actually think Tiger was better than Barnes himself.
