WHERE DI HELL IS CURTLEY AMBROSE!!!

[puranijeans2002]

Thank you for adding wesley hall, the mighty lion, and one of 3W's.

[CaptainPedant]

1950? Larwood was 1932 (and, according to reputation, frighteningly quick. Note though that the injury to Oldfield wasn't the bowler's fault; the batsman edged the ball into his own head. You can bet that smarted).

[boeing74783]

I believe it was Frank Tyson at 3.53

[goycius92]

Jeff Thomson? Also, don't think Shoaib is better than Pollock, Walsh, Ambrose, McGrath, Lee etc.

[aak420]

Frank Tyson @ 3.53 is the bowler

[rahooligan]

who's the guy at 1:14?

[latifabadi]

3.53 is jhon snow i guess

[VarunNadkarni]

Any idea who the bowler around 3:53 is?

[stevelitchfield]

Frank Tyson, I think

[kevinlovesceri]

@stevelitchfield

Yes I think It's Tyson.

[eusebium7]

@stevelitchfield

Definitely Tyson

Did you put Chris Old in there? I was shocked until I saw....Kerry O'Keefe?

:) still a nice compilation...

[stevelitchfield]

@eusebium7 Oh, I threw a few of my own favourites in there to add interest.... hey, it was my video!!!

[AnInfant]

That bowler is Frank Tyson, whom Richie Benaud rates as the fastest bowler he has ever seen.

[buffalo82]

@VarunNadkarni frank tyson mate



[spreadenlightenment]

Kapil Dev shuould have been there...

[aberjed]

two best bowlers I've seen Truman & Andy Roberts

[goulby]

not saying hes the best, but larwoods action is a beauty

[smtahir1]

where's Asif Masood my taya?! The great fast bowlers??

[raidz06]

poor old graham gooch... on the receiving end of two of crickets bowling legends Garner and Donald.

[mizofan]

Excellent collection. Note Mike Proctor's open-chested frontal action. I used to like taking it off for fun as a kid. Holding's action is so smooth, Marshall deceptively quick. Lillee and Trueman the best 2 fast bowlers here, i'd say. A pity the great Syd Barnes of Wales and England isn't there, he had the best test average, but of course that was early days- in his mid 50s he helped Wales beat the West Indies.

[raidz06]

lillee, trueman and akram... possibly the greatest left-arm bowler there ever was. that being said all these blokes are out of this world.

[raidz06]

lillee, trueman and akram... possibly the finest left arm bowler there ever was. That being said all these blokes are legends in this clip. Pity Ambrose and Walsh weren't included.

[oiuyghv]

best two quicks? trueman nowhere close to akram, marshall or younis, who may have been the most unplayable quick ever for 3 or 4 years(despite all things people say about him

[Zahra7fold]

Where's my dad?!

Asif Masood- absolute legend!

[Imrankniazi]

Haha, good un!

[timechannel]

Scariest was his mate Sarfraz Nawaz

[KyokushinStudent]

yues he was pakistan's original pace bowler. unfortunately no footage of his bowling here on youtube. perhaps you can upload some?

[KyokushinStudent]

do you have any footage of him in action? please upload. he was pakistan's first true pace bowler. it would great to see him bowling.

[crickla]

Great clips. Thanks. Do you have one with only spinners?

[siddistani]

Great video

[riqelme]

i was watching this video and wondered where the hell is wasim akram?

[Dreame12]

watch again , around 4:29

[putteringpluie]

@riqelme around 4:30

[PopaNo1Z]

Harold Larwood = best ever.

[malaka1976]

Great to see some legends, but horrible editing!

[stevelitchfield]

Agreed. The videos are all separate items on my web site, but someone wanted to see just the bowling bits and I agreed to do a quick and dirty compilation for them. If anyone's got time to take all my videos (see URL link above) and produce a proper titled, edited, professional movie, please contact me - all help accepted!
