Battle of the Test Bowling

[Magrat Garlick]

I don't care whether it's ten, the pitch was a nightmare and Lock kept bowling quickly cos he was angry.

Have to go with Laker, nightmare pitch or not when the conditions favour you you cannot do more than use them.

 

[Matteh]

Laker.
10-fer is amazing no matter what the conditions. Hence why it's only happened twice in Test Cricket.

 

[aussie]

Lille's spell was great, but 10 for are rare, so Laker, England's greatest ever spinner.
