Garner for his batting IMO

I've gone for Pollock based on his far superior bowling. Close though.

Shaun Pollock for his extra height advantage.

Pollock took 150 more wickets as well

He played almost twice as many tests.
As a bowler, Garner is statistically all over Pollock.
Garner: Ave 20.98; WPM 4.47; CW Fast bowler ranking 11
Pollock: Ave 23.12; WPM 3.90; CW Fast bowler ranking 16

That’s true. I was just pointing out the better longevity. Garner definitely the better bowler

I go for Garner. Just about remember the back end of his career. A better bowler for me by a fair margin. Don't think Pollock's batting makes up enough for me.
