Usually opening bowlers or spinners are the best bowlers in a side. What are some examples of when 1st or 2nd change seamers (like Neil Wagner) are the premier bowlers in a team?
I'm going to assume you're talking ODIs here. Who opened the bowling when he was 1st change? Pollock and Fanie?Allan Donald
Huh? Lee was only 1st change when McGrath and Gillespie were playing wasn't he?Shoaib Akthar and Brett Lee?
that was most of his test career though right?Huh? Lee was only 1st change when McGrath and Gillespie were playing wasn't he?
I think the point wasn't so much that Lee wasn't 1st change, more that he wasn't better than McGrath and Gillespie.that was most of his test career though right?
Don't think this counts because Shoaib was first change only when Wasim and Waqar were around and I think they played a sum total of 2 test matches together.Shoaib Akthar and Brett Lee?
Are you serious about the trio playing just 2 tests together?Don't think this counts because Shoaib was first change only when Wasim and Waqar were around and I think they played a sum total of 2 test matches together.
