I posted this chart for 40 match moving averages for the quartet of great fast bowlers of 70's and 80's on another thread:
Then decided to do similar charts for the leading bowlers of 90's and 00's. Had 8 bowlers in mind but putting them together in one chart made it very crowded. So split them into 2 sets - those who retired before 2005 and those played post that. Here are two more charts:
Mostly they confirm what I already knew. For example, knew that Pollock was tremendous for first half of his career without anyone noticing it.
Draw your own conclusions!
