Not a bad list of big names... but in a lot of ways the more interesting quetion is which lesser lights had a glorious action but just never managed to use it to hit the heights.

Chris Lewis is an obvious English cadidate.. but I would guess that there have been stacks of heroic failures who were glorious to watch.

Good action, wasted on him though. If he had half the attitude of some of the less gifted players, he could have been great. Sadly he didn't and will therefore go down as one of the biggest dissapointments English cricket ever produced.
