Not really qualified to disseminate on their technical skills, but it's telling that McGrath seems to make more ATG World XIs on this forum than Curtly.

 

[Riggins]

Damien Martyn.

Ambrose seems to be winning the head to head threads though

 

[smash84]

[The Battlers Prince]

McBrose

McGrath

Personal choice : Ambrose

Loved seeing him terrorize batsmen with his lethal bowling.

Pramodya Wickramasinghe had a ***ier action than both of them.

True, Ambrose was a true champion, but just below McGrath. Same ball park though. Never though we were out of a match when Amby had the new cherry in his hand and I think he was the No. 1 rated bolwer in the world up until when he retired.

Yeah and what's interesting is that Ambrose seems to win most of the polls between the two. We have a situation where a (small) majority of CW seems to think Ambrose was the better of the two, but the McGrath faction rate their own man higher than the Ambrose faction.

I'm a good example I guess in that I think Ambrose was the better of the two but wouldn't have either of them in genuine contention for my ATWXI.

Such similar bowlers. Ambrose just had a touch more intimidation I think. Depends on what you want from your bowler. In my mind I think McGrath was more accurate. But Ambrose could be as well. Such a tough choice. I'll just take Marshall then

Isn't that because of your all rounder fetish?
