Thomson vs Botham vs Gillespie vs Gough vs Streak

[G.I.Joe]

Jeff Thomson, Ian Botham, Heath Streak, Darren Gough, Jason Gillespie.

Ignore the batting/fielding/captaincy. Rank them purely as bowlers

 

[Himannv]

Voted for Thomson. Aggressive and a far more potent wicket taker compared to the others in that list.

Are we talking about peaks?

Took two posts for that word to appear

Nah, overall, IMO.

Missed Botham on the poll actually.He's def the best of the lot imo,peak or not.Sheer longevity gets him my vote.

Football in the groin! Football in the groin!

1) Heath Streak
2) Jeff Thomson
3) Ian Botham
4) Darren Gough
5) Jason Gillespie

If Streak had ever got someone good to support him on the other end,his record would've been much better.And my ranking is based on overall career,not just peaks or something.

I don't know how you could have Gillespie as the worst bowler of the group. He is a better bowler then Gough, Streak and arguably Thomson and had better careers then those three aswell.

It's either Botham or Gillespie for mine. I voted for Gillespie because he is awsome.

 

[Himannv]

Man getting hit in groin with ball in the lead!!

IMO,They were bowlers of same class & there was only a little difference among them all.But I rate Streak as better than others so he has to be at the top.It isn't like being at the bottom makes him a poor bowler or something.

Thought the last one read Steak and voted appropriately.

 

[Teja.]

Streak, most underrated Pacer of all time.
