Fast bowler survival round 3
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.

Group A

Malcolm Marshall
Dennis Lillee
Sydney Barnes
Harold Larwood
Andy Roberts


Group B

Glenn McGrath
Curtly Ambrose
Allan Davidson
Ray Lindwall
Keith Miller

Group C

Richard Hadlee
Joel Garner
Wasim Akram
Allan Donald
Frank Tyson

Group D

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.

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