International Vice-Captain
We all know about his amazing feat, but are there any records on what his bowling was actually like? The only footage I've seen of him is the 19 haul, and interestingly he seemed to get a lot of people out bowled round their legs from round the wicket. Suggests to me he was a big turner of the ball and had a ton of drift (people seemed to be falling away to the offside and exposing their stumps), but wondered if there are any proper accounts?
