Cricketweb decides the greatest bowler ever in a 64 player bracket. Contest thread.

Hadlee
Ambrose
Marshall
Murali

 

[Zinzan]

Call me biased against the spinners but;

Hadlee
Ambrose
Marshall &
Barnes for me.

Warne revolutionised spin bowling, but there's no way objectively speaking he was a better overall bowler than Hadlee, even if the name "Warne" had a bigger impact on the international game due to his rare art-form.

Barnes was a spinner so....

Barnes was a spinner so....

Yeah but he was up against a spinner in that battle so Zinzan had to pick a spinner, and he naturally picked the less spinnery of the two options.

Clear anti-spin bias.

Not relative to Murali he wasn't so....

Indeed, the less spinnery thingybob thing.

Who's the most spinnery spinner ever? Harbhajan imo. Everything about his action is twirls and pirouettes.

Abdul Qadir's a good shout for mine, even though he had a great quicker-ball, his stock delivery had magnificent flight & twirl

Nah you could imagine Qadir bowling meds in club cricket if he had to. The thought of Harbhajan bowling meds just seems wrong.

Ashton Turner perhaps? The kid changed his surname to sound more spinnery.

You know you don't have to stick to the same side for all picks each round, don't ya..

Warne Ambrose Marshall Murali

 

[Howe_zat]

The most spinnery spinners are probably the underarm lot from the 1820s

 

[Shortodds]

Hadlee
Ambrose
Marshall
Murali

That's probably who I'd pick in MY ATG 11 so not a bad final four.
