Fast bowler survival round 3

Cricket Web: All-Time Legend
So we have progressed into the final group stage.

I have seeded the results, based on the previous group stages. The final 20 competitors are ranked like so:

1.13 - Malcolm Marshall
1.19 - Glenn McGrath
1.34 - Richard Hadlee
1.46 - Imran Khan
1.72 - Dennis Lillee
1.74 - Curtly Ambrose
1.83 - Joel Garner
2.02 - Waqar Younis
2.03 - Fred Trueman
2.07 - Wasim Akram
2.13 - Allan Davidson
2.21 - Sydney Barnes
2.29 - Michael Holding
2.41 - Allan Donald
2.57 - Ray Lindwall
2.82 - Harold Larwood
2.86 - Shaun Pollock
3.15 - Frank Tyson
3.33 - Keith Miller
3.75 - Andy Roberts

The groups have been allocated as fairly as possible.

Please rank the bowlers in each group. There will be 48 hours to vote. The bottom placed bowler in each group will be eliminated and the average vote that each player scores in this round will seed them for the quarter finals.

Last one of any two groups together would put any present day bowling attack to such levels of shame, it's not even funny. I'd sell my mum to see Roberts, Miller and Pollock bowling in tandem. You, Mr.Sean, are a hard man to please. :p

Agree completely. I have the same last 4 as you; Pollock, Roberts, Tyson and Miller. Amazing lineup.

It was tough, but two choices that gave me headaches were-
1. choosing one between Akram and Garner
2. deciding the order among Younis, Holding and Trueman
