Donald. Pollocks runs are slightly overrated.

Pollock is a quite underapprecisted bowler imo. Terrific 90s record and continued having success into the 2000s even in decline. Bowled beautifully in the subcontinent too.

Very much interested in your perspective as to why

Why didn't you vote for him then. Surely this factor + Pollock's batting puts him ahead of Donald in this race?

I can think he's an under appreciated bowler and still not think he's in the same tier as Donald. I don't rate Pollock's batting highly.

Kinda. Pollock is the Walsh to Donald's Ambrose. Awesome in his own right but clearly a level below in effectiveness and firepower.

Very few knocks of substance. A lot of padding.

Thats harsh on Pollock. The gap there is far smaller and Pollock is a far, far superior batsman to Donald.

Donald was just different gravy, he had a fear factor about him. Polly was like hybrid of his father and his uncle , though at the lower end of the batting genome his uncle had.
