I remember an ODI against England and he opened the bowling, bowled his 10 overs in a row and managed to reduce us to 7 wickets thanks to him alone. Amazing bowler.
Swinging ball is not a big deal, but maintaining that consistency in every match is ineed and that is what made Waqar Younis the most fearsome swing bowler in world cricket.
it moves in slightly in the air, the pitches and straightens. thorpe played the line it would have taken had it not straightened. full credit to waqar!
I remember watching this live and thinking "that's an amazing delivery" from Waqar. It was probably the only way to get rid of Thorpe because he was in great form that summer.
Totally. It seems to swing in (to the left hander) before the bounce, then almost cut away slightly, to leave the usually reliable Thorpey playing down the Bakerloo, while the ball..
look how far the stump is flown back and cartwheeling ...No wonder Waqar bhai is one of the best bowler of all time ...such a deadly accuracy ...amazing!!!
All players mention here r sick tbh. Just imagin wasim and mcgrath sick swing bowlers, Waqar raw unhittable pace, Warne and Murali best spinners ever?. The ultimate 5 bowlers card tbh
@pakapakable Indeed, a great pair. If only consecutive Pak Cricket Boards did not master the art of destroying and demoralising talent, we would have seen many more such jodis (pairs). | From an Indian 'cricket' fan
@AminThePoet OK then Wasim Akram is one of the worldest best bowlers in history Wasim and Waqar are amazing bowlers but i dont think Murali is better than him or Shane Warne but Shane was the worldest best spinner
if he would have said some in Punjabi then u would have said why is acting paki.. he was trying to get his point across in English, maybe the gora didnt understand getting the stump uprooted.
lovely bowling! pakistan dearly miss him! no fast bowler since then has compared other than his partner wasim akram. asif couldve probably been their match except that he just has so many controversies around him that dont let him play!
TO ,1SammyB1 ,yes bond have clocked 150,its true but he was never in high 150,but lee and shoaib was,altough lee now days never touches high 150,but shoib does,one thing strange here is shaun tait can do it consistently,but he is never rated as lee or shoaib was in their career,although he has quit cricket now uncertainly,what bond had much better than shoaib,lee,tait is he was never questioned for his action,but they were,even tait at end days,and bond have good bowling avg than them
if u see tait's action from bowling end its semms ok, but when u look his action from batting end or(as a batsman) his wrist makes his action very okward,,,
akhtar is world class there is no doubt about that. thats the only reason hes always been selected despite his discipline issues ... his strike-rate is up there as one of the best ever... but as G Boycott says he should have had twice as many wickets with his talent ... due to discipline problems, consistent injury problems etc etc hes hasn't done that. plays one game then injured the next. thats bin the problem throughout his career.
sounds like shane bond bro....our (kiwi) best bowler in recent years burst onto the international stage clocking high 150's and now after his injuries hardly make 140. If only.....
@Nikamma NO DONT THINK SO. YOU DONT WATCH CRICKET DO YOU. Akhtar is a WORLD CLASS BOWLER, UP THER WITH WAQAR AND WASIM. DONT JUDGE ON THE NUMBER OF WICKETS ALONE. AKHTAR WAS LETHAL, HIS FITNESS LET HIM DOWN LATER IN HIS CAREER WHEN HE PILED ON THE POUNDS. THER IS ONLY ONE AKHTAR. RAWALPINDI EXPRESS
bro ahktar is leathel there is no other bowler in the world that has natural talent like akhtar, 1st he has dense bones and second he has hyper extension all over his body, which gives him soo much extra pace that he become unstoppable at time
