    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Still not tests. No one include the SAF-India banned 3rd test, although it was played in test format.

    Last time I checked WSC are not tests.

    Heath Streak vs Javagal Srinath

    Srinath by a mile. There is not many fast bowlers put god fear in to South African line up in 90s.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Point is he was a flop on slow wickets. Even couldn't blast away minnow Sri Lanka team and average 35 against them.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    West Indies hammered Australia in 1979 and became number one in tests. They were in the ascendency since 1975/6 tour

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    He was concerned of diarrhea and did not tour India, which was one of the graveyards of fast bowling.

    You mean like having no average? :laugh: :laugh:

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Which was not much TBH, compared to what Marshall, Hadlee and McGrath towered over.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    It is because he has refused to travel SC on "health" grounds, where as other players stuck it out.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Nope. It was early 80s to end of 90s. Lillee was retired by then, That is when Imran, Hadlee and Marshall hit their ridiculous peaks, which easily dwarfs Lillee in comparison.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Fast bowler festival actually started after Lillee's retirement. Marshall, Garner, Ambrose, Walsh, Donad;, Pollock, Imran, Wasim, Waqar, Hadlee, McGrath, vs few names before that. early 80s to late 90s was the peak of fast bowling.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Lillee spilled it when it really mattered in SC and in WI in slower wickets.

    Wasim Akram vs Dennis Lillee

    Why Lillee struggled in SC and WI?

    Pujara vs Samaraweera

    Mahela is in top 5-8 players of spin cricket has ever seen. Not flashy as Sehwag, Sidhu, Lara or Azhar, but his defence, little dabs, late cuts, sweeps, short runs makes him one of the best ever against spin.

    The 5 worst fast bowlers who average below 25

    Failed in three countries. Even could not blitz though minnow SL batting line up on a spicy Asgiriya pitch, which had movement, but not bounce. This is at the level of Shane's broken toe nail.

    The 5 worst fast bowlers who average below 25

    It helps fast bowlers.l Found wanting on SC tracks.
  17. Migara

    Worst batsman with a 50 average

    In > 5000 runs range Yousuf or Hayden. Both were ruthless when set, but not the best in sticking it out in difficult conditions.

    The 5 worst fast bowlers who average below 25

    Green track bully
  19. Migara

    The 5 worst fast bowlers who average below 25

    Philander, Lillee

    Graeme Pollock vs Ken Barrington

    India is challenging for non SC batsmen, so your point is moot here.
