Best Australian seamer from this list.

[Fuller Pilch]

Since Davidson's last test in 1963 (Miller and Lindwall finished earlier), Lillee, McGrath, and now Cummins are considered the 3 best Australian seamers of the past 60 years.

Who is 4th? Choose one from the list and discuss.

It's very close for me between Gillespie and Hazlewood atm, expect Hazlewood to overtake him soon. I would rank them as (alongside the rankings they got in my last Pacers rankings):

Gillespie - 46
Hazlewood - 51
Johnson - 57
Thomson - 59
Starc - 61
MDermott - 62
McKenzie - 66
Harris - 67
Reid - 83
Hogg - 85
Hughes - 92
Walker - 93
Lawson - 98
Alderman - 102
Lee - 108
Clarke - 121
Reiffel - 124
Siddle
Kasprowicz (these 2 didn't got a rank)

Just curious which three you have ahead of Lillee?

McGrath, Lindwall, Davidson (Just a guess)

Apparently Davidson is the most recent bowler not eligible here, suggesting ataraxia actually rates someone in the poll higher than Lillee.

Edit: Lindwall also ineligible.

Yep. Not a Durham boy but he was the epitome of a county pro. Worked hard in his second discipline when necessary and was a serious contributor in all three formats. He was excellent.
