Opinions of These Bowlers

With all due respect to all 3, they are all overrated on this board. Kallis perhaps is the least accomplished, but hes just as talented as the other 2. However, all 3 of them were really made to hold the candle for someone far superior to them rather than lead an attack on their own. They are the Gillespies to the Glenn Mcgraths and the fact that 2 of them are the top 2 bowlers in the world right now is more indicative of the bowling quality in the world rather than anything else.
I never really rated any of them, I solely picked them on the basis of similar averages. IIRC, the main reason I started this thread was to see the opinions of posters upon Kallis. I know stats don't tell the whole story, but I'll be the first to say that Kallis is not as good a bowler as either Lee or Flintoff, but I don't think that he is that far away from them in pure wicket taking ability.
