Top 10 ODI fast bowlers of all time

[Ted123]

List down your top 10 ODI fast bowlers of all time? Mine would be, in choronological order:-

Garner
Hadlee
Wasim
Ambrose
Waqar
Donald
McGrath
Pollock
Lee
Bond
Malinga
Steyn
Morkel
Starc
Bumrah
Archer

Anyone else?

 

[pillionrider]

That's more than 10 But I'm guessing you are trying to build a pool first and then want to rate?

Wasim Akram would be No.1 for me. You build the list around that. If medium-fast counts since Pollock was probably that in his 2nd half and is in the list, Chaminda Vaas is vastly underrated particularly in subcontinental conditions.

 

[Buffet]

Garner
McGrath
Akram
Hadlee
Pollock
Starc
Bumrah
Ambrose
Holding
Donald

 

[Ball Blazer]

but they are not 10. Do you want posters to filter out??

Chronologically,

1975-1990:-

Garner
Hadlee

1990s-2010:-

McGrath
Wasim
Pollock
Lee
Donald
Ambrose
Waqar

Post 2010:-

Starc
Bumrah

Total 11. ODI cricket became really popular in 90s and 00s so players from that era are more likely to be in the list.

 

[kron]

Starc
Bumrah
Shami


Modern era

That’s all matters

Hardest era to do well

Rest don’t care

Wasim top 5

Waqar 11

 

[Hitman]

Glenn McGrath at the top for me.

 

[hassan918]

Wasim
Waqar
Shoaib
Starc
Lee
McGrath
Pollock
Bond
Malinga
Vaas

I would somehow like to add Ambrose and Boult in the list. Maybe in place of Akhtar and Vaas.

 

[Honestly]

Glenn McGrath
Joel Garner
Wasim Akram
Mitchell Starc
Shaun Pollock
Richard Hadlee
Jasprit Bumrah
Curtly Ambrose
Shane Bond
Allan Donald
Mohammad Shami
Brett Lee
Waqar Younis
Dennis Lillee
Michael Holding
Nathan Bracken
Trent Boult
Andy Roberts
Fanie de Villiers
Lasith Malinga

 

[Kianig89]

McGrath
Wasim
Starc
Malinga
Pollock
Ambrose
Lee
Donald
Bond
Boult
============
From what I've watched live

All bases covered , Pace & seam movement, swing & reverse swing, bounce & angle
Plus there is no chucker or suspected chucker in it

How would some of these fare in today's 360 game? I suspect Glenn McGrath as fine as he was would not be great because his line would be predictable...

 

[Sher Khan]

I agree with the list but would also add Trent Boult has bowled some incredible spells in odi cricket.
