It will be interesting to see if the top 50 will feature bowlers averaging 30+. Lyon most probably will be one but not sure who else might get in.

Also have to say. @Line and Length the table you put up is very neat. Helps in comparing the stats of the voted bowlers easily.

Lost interest after the top 30. Outside that, seems excessive and frankly much harder to judge but I respect you guys still going at it.
Think everyone is gearing up for what should hopefully be a less contentious batsmen vote.

To date we only have half a dozen or so bowlers whose averages exceeded 25. I have a few "wild cards" I'm nominating later who, purely on averages, might sneak in.
