Most exciting bowler to watch

[Slifer]

For me Waqar Younis

 

[OverratedSanity]

I'm as big a Kumble fan as you can get but even I fail to see what was exciting about his bowling. Dernbach and Hauritz also very strange mentions

 

[Jono]

The anticipation of Dernbach getting smashed is pretty exciting tbf

Akthar
Steyn
Brett Schultz

thought Sreesanth wasnt that boring at all either.

 

[Adders]

Dernbach,

Is he on your list for comedy value??

 

[Agent Nationaux]

Probably for that amazing slower ball be bowls. #onetrickpony

 

[smash84]

I am not sure I recall any ODI bowler who has been as **** as dernbach and who has played so many matches

He is even worse than Ishant and Sami put into one. Ok, maybe not as bad

Dilhara Fernando's slower ball was honestly the best disguised I've ever seen. Unfortunately, he too, couldn't do much else

Can't say I disagree with you. I hadn't paid any notice to Eng's T20 squad and nearly spat my coffee all over the lounge last night when I saw his name on the team sheet.......was certain we were done with him.

Gary Brent's slower ball was pretty hard to spot; his idea was to bowl his stock ball at that pace as well so there was almost literally no difference. Genius.

 

[Maximas]

tbf Dernbach was always forced to bowl at the worst times

He is **** though

 

[Goughy]

Given the choices already named mine are not exactly unusual -- Waqar and Donald. Caddick is a good shout as he had the additional excitement of never knowing if he was going to bowl like an Ambrose/Marshall combo or the ungainly kid who makes the club 2nds because he is tall.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Tait.

 

[YorksLanka]

was that trying to guess which two balls of his over werent going to be wide ones?

I think the kind of drift and dip that Hauritz got on a consistent basis was something I loved watching, same can be said about Swann although I missed mentioning him. Dernbach, because I like to see the range of variations he has, he gets hit because he lacks the basic bowling intelligence which is required for a pace bowler, but definitely has a lot of potential.

 

[smash84]

A brainless bowler will never live up to his potential though.

Ishant and Sami are prime examples

Absolutely correct. Wonder what the bowling coaches do with such guys. Its ridiculous to see bowlers not getting the basics right for a sustained period.

I don't think Ishant is brainless, he just isn't very talented. Yeah he's tall, but he's never shown great control/seam movement/swing/or pace.

He tends to bowl to a plan ok.

 

[Jono]

Nah look Ishant and Sami are/were horrible but Dernbach is another level of ****. He is brainless but he also is poor at executing what he wants to do.
