He was the fave bowler of everyone of our generation, though. The run up from the boundary, the arm swinging violently behind the back, the flowing locks.Originally Posted by Luis Anaconda
Me too - was my favourite bowler when I was young. Will never forget my mum waiting at the top of our drive when I got home from school waiting to tell me that England had somehow won that Test. Had the framed scorecard from the Daily Express with a big cartoon of Bob in full flow
Having grown up hearing terror stories of Lillie and Thommo, now we had a white quick doing it to them.
Curtley's still my all time fave, though. That thing he did with his hands after taking a wicket. Honourable mention to Lasith's yorker.
