Raw Pace but Sprays It All Over

Starfighter

Cricket Web: All-Time Legend
Greg Thomas
Murray Webb
Duncan Spencer
Maybe Cuan McCarthy (hard judging a guy from writing).
WB Burns (Frank Chester, I think, said he was the fastest bowler he saw, faster than Larwood)
Eddie Gilbert could be very erratic.
Frank Tyson, Jeff Thomson and Tibby Cotter at times.

Mitchell Johnson, for a bit.
Like Starc, his bad spells were often associated with reduced pace.

Really for Tyson? I know you said at times but man... His set of FC and test averages makes me he must have been pretty consistent
