i was wondering and wondered if anyone else notice that more often than not great batsman are short....i.e lara, tendulkar, bradman and gavaskar..

on the other side of the ball, i was wondering who people considered bowl the best short 'uns, accurately, pacey and agrresively, the first name that comes up in my mind is my fave all time bowler Curtly 'talk to no man''toothy grin'Ambrose

God, he was brilliant, others are Allan Donald and the famous West Indian quartet of Garner, Marshall, Holding and err...i forgotten a name... anyway in those days of 60- over matches, id have been ****ting myself regularly with violent diarrohea if my team were to have to deal with them for 48 of those 60 overs.
