Very high quality bowling attacks in the world post 1990:
1. Australia - always above average, superb post 1995
2. West Indies- superb till 2000 or so ( before Ambrose retired)
3. India in India
4. Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka post 1996 ( when Murali started to come on his own)
5. Pakistan till 2000 or so - before Wasim and Waqar became too jaded/over the hill
6. South Africa prior to Donald's retirement
Tendulkar against abovementioned attacks :
53 matches, 94 innings, 7 not outs, 4360 runs @ 50.11, 15x100, 15x50
Lara against abovementioned attacks :
55 matches, 103 innings, 2 not outs, 4927 runs @ 48.78, 12x100, 23x50
Kallis against abovementioned attacks(until last test vs OZ) :
42 matches, 80 innings, 11 not outs, 3092 runs @ 44.81, 6x100, 20x50.
Compared to their career averages, Kallis cashes in massively against marginal bowling attacks and ordinary ones.
