Who is best swing bowler ?

[Narayana]

Jimmy Anderson vs Wasim Akram who is better swing bowler and why?
Jimmy Anderson bowling with the pink bowl in Adelaide test under lights is the most astonishing swing bowling i have seen.

Akram w/ bottlecup > Akram w/o bottlecap > Anderson

Any swing bowling masterclass of Wasim available on YouTube? Test cricket

 

[Johan]

purely conventional swing is probably Jimmy while pace and reverse swing is Akram. Better bowler is obviously Akram.

How fast was Wasim?
Anderson also used to Bowl 140+

I'd guess He touched 145+ quite a few times.

Conventional swing with the new ball might be Anderson. But Wasim with the old ball.

Waqar

Waqar's fastest ball might be faster than 153 kmph. He might have touched 155 kmph on some occasions.

You have seen his whole career, haven't you? Any insight on his speed?

too young but from when I have solid memories from he wasn't that quick in the second halve of his career, I've vague recollection of being told and thinking he was lightning quick at peak tho

 

[DrWolverine]

Waqar was easily faster than Akram and bowled over 90

 

[sayon basak]

And he was dire when he did.

His gather was much different back in those days. Almost like Brett Lee's.

Darren Gough bowling far faster than Joel Garner is hilarious to me

 

[subshakerz]

Wasim because Anderson was more condition dependent. But Anderson was more deadly in his conditions.

 

[Coronis]

Never knew Anderson was also trying the dye job back then.

Darren Gough bowling far faster than Joel Garner is hilarious to me

Why?

I never saw Garner play. Darren Gough was quite fast. I liked his bowling action

I know Marshall didn't have a braced front leg (still was pretty fast). What about Joel's action?

I’d try googling Joel Garner bowling.
