I feel we should have a thread with Howe's novelty XIs compiled for ready reference. They're scattered all over the ATG team arguing thread and impossible to find.

I'm assuming from this post you never saw early-career Amla. That backlift was ****ing ridiculous. He still maintained aspects of it moving forward to be "unorthodox" but his debut backlifted was really, really weird.
