What wonderful blokes all 3 of them. Will take Donald as of now. Of course Steyn has time to overtake.

I'd rather have a beer with any but Shaun. Man has the worst twitter feed of anyone, ever.

Allan Donald would be more gentlemanly on a date.

^lol, he always seemed like a nerdy cub scout leader. If he worked a desk job, I'm sure his cubicle would be plastered with motivational bits and pieces.

Donald and Steyn are a different sort of bowler to Pollock but I'd still take AD over Steyn at this point - partly because he could do it in both forms of the game (plus he was an awesome county bowler)

Donald marginally the best bowler, would pick Pollock in my world XI because of his batting.

Also, Pollock is a sexy man, the other two definitely aren't.
