That is partly because of the flat wickets and quick outfields.
So why do you criticise Anderson for what is a fairly good eco rate when you consider his wicket taking ability?

So people like Walsh, Ambrose, Garner, Gough, Pollock Marshall, Holding etc played when the first 15 over rule was in and they were very accurate.
I think that Walsh, Ambrose, Garner, Gough, Pollock, Marshall and Holding might just slip into a list of the 100 greatest bowlers of All-time...:rolleyes:

These are great bowlers! You can't compare someone like Anderson with them... as yet. No one is claiming that Anderson is a great bowler. He's a good young talent and his economy rate is acceptable for an up-and-coming youngster.

Nowhere near top I don't think.

However about 1 year ago, I was below 1,000 posts, so since then I'm about 25 or so.

I assume there's a typo here Liam?
Spotted.

I assume that I was going to say "is not that bad" and then changed my expression to "is acceptable" but did not fully edit. Thanks for pointing that out.
