Can’t be including Trueman and Lillee while leaving Garner out. Peak Garner was ridiculous.

Are there 10-12 Test bowlers in your ATG club?
If so, and it doesn't include Garner than it's not a valid club. 6-7 in the club, and I could understand.

Garner is better quality wise than half of this list.

I know
Edit: Was seeing floaters in the shower last night, so maybe not far off. Probably need to be resting my eyes a bit more.

(technically I’m excluding his very final innings, to show how his career was in 2 seperate stages)
Garner as a first change bowler (1977-1983)
32 matches 61 innings 131 @ 21.83 SR 55.9 2 5’fers
Garner as an opening bowler (1984-1987)
26 matches 50 innings 128 @ 20.09 SR 45.6 5 5’fers

Floaters are just the shadows of fibrils in your eyes. They are are also a type of variation that Aminul Islam Biplob used to bowl.I know

Garner to me didn't play long enough or take enough wickets.

Ambrose. Imran. Holding. Donald.
Trueman. Lillee. Garner. Akram.

There is every indication to me that Lillee was just as quality a bowler as Hadlee. The only difference is that Hadlee got more chances to prove himself away.

But his cricinfo stats do not read very good.

That's not true.

I think Lillee’s record is good.
It is just that he barely played outside Aus, Eng & NZ.
Quality wise I think he is top 5.
